SECTION 1 INSTALLATION SECTION 1

Oven Characteristics

The cabinet is equipped with a special, low-heat-density, heating cable. Through

the Halo Heat concept, the heating cable is mounted against the walls of the cooking

and holding compartment to provide an evenly applied heat source, controlled by an

oven sensor. The design and operational characteristics of the unit eliminates the need

for a moisture pan or a heat circulating fan. Through even heat application, the food

product is cooked evenly and capable of being held for longer time periods.

Printing

The electronic cook and hold oven is equipped with a serial data port for connec-

tion to a serial printer or PC terminal. This will provide temperature recording data

(HACCP protocol) as well as setup and diagnostic information. Refer to the section on

printing for additional details.

Start-Up

1. Before operating the oven, clean both the interior and exterior of the unit

with a damp cloth and any good alkaline or alkaline chlorinated based

commercial detergent at the recommended strength. Rinse surfaces by

wiping with a sponge and clean warm water to remove all deter-

gent residue. Wipe dry with a clean cloth or air dry.

2. Wipe door gaskets and control panel dry with a soft cloth.

3. Clean and install the oven side racks, oven shelves, and external

drip tray. Shelves are installed with curved edge toward the back

of the oven. Insert the drip pan on the

interior bottom surface of the oven.

4. Before operating the unit with product, become familiar with the

operation of the controls. Read the following "Control

Description" and "Operation" section of this

manual and operate the various control functions.

At no time should

the oven interior or exterior

be steam cleaned, hosed

down, or flooded with water

or liquid solution. Do not

use water jet to clean.

Severe damage or electrical

hazard could result voiding

the warranty.

2. Remove all detachable items such as wire shelves, side racks, and drip pan. Clean

these items separately.

3. Wipe the interior metal surfaces of the oven with a paper towel to remove loose

food debris.

4. Clean interior with a damp cloth or sponge and any good alkaline or alkaline

chlorinated based commercial detergent at the recommended strength.

5. Spray heavily soiled areas with a water soluble degreaser and let stand for

10 minutes, then remove soil with a plastic scouring pad.

NOTE: Avoid the use of abrasive cleaning compounds, chloride based cleaners,

or cleaners containing quaternary salts. Never use hydrochloric acid

(muriatic acid) on stainless steel.

6. Wipe control panel, door vents, door handles, and door gaskets thoroughly

since these areas harbor food debris.

7. Rinse surfaces by wiping with sponge and clean warm water.

8. Remove excess water with sponge and wipe dry with a clean cloth or air dry.

Leave doors open until interior is completely dry. Replace side racks and shelves.

9. Wipe door gaskets and control panel dry with a clean, soft cloth.

10. Interior can be wiped with a sanitizing solution after cleaning and rinsing.

This solution must be approved for use on stainless steel food contact surfaces.

11. To help maintain the protective film coating on polished stainless steel, clean the

exterior of the cabinet with a cleaner recommended for stainless steel surfaces.

Spray the cleaning agent on the cloth and wipe with the grain of the stainless steel.

12. Clean any glass with a window cleaner.

Always follow appropriate state or local health (hygiene) regulations regarding all

applicable cleaning and sanitation requirements for equipment.

Clean the Probes Daily

Remove all food soil from probes. Wipe entire probe and cable assembly with warm

SECTION 4 PRINTER OPTION SECTION 4

Connecting the Printer to the Oven

1. On the printer, using your printer operation manu-

al, locate the dip switch panel on the lower left

side. Remove the panel cover and set all switches

to the up (on) position. The printer should be

shipped with all switches in the up position. Set

the second switch from the right to the down (off)

position. Set the fifth switch from the left to the

down (off) position. If printing in a language other

than English, consult Table A for appropriate

switch settings.

2. Locate the serial data port on the rear panel of the

oven, just to the left of the cooling fan inlet. Attach

the serial data cable to this port. Using the printers

operation manual, locate its serial data port and

connect the serial data cable.

3. The printer's power switch is located on the bottom

right side. Turn on the printer. Ensure that the

printer's green power and on-line indicators are

illuminated. Refer to Chapter Three of the printer

operation manual if these are not illuminated.

4. Turn on the cook and hold oven and you will see a

print out of some of the oven's basic configuration.

The electronic cook and hold oven is equipped with a serial data port for connection to

an optional serial printer in order to obtain a printed report of temperature recording data

(HACCP protocol) as well as setup and diagnostic information. The control has enough

memory to store 120-150 temperature samples as a total for all reports combined. Temperature

samples are read through the product probe. Only the tip of the product probe senses the inter-

nal product temperature, therefore, it is important the tip be placed correctly in the product for

accuracy. These reports can be printed in English, French, German or Spanish.

A 9-pin serial data port is located at the back of the oven near the cooling fan. This port can

be used to connect the serial data printer to the oven in order to take advantage of the data

reporting capabilities.

In order to ensure the proper cable and the correct printer switch settings, we recommend

purchasing your printer from Alto-Shaam:

Serial Printer & Cable Package — 125/208-240V . . . . . . . . Part # 14218

230 V . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Part # 14679

Serial Printer Paper . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Part # PO-33397

The printers are shipped with a users manual. It is recommended that you read the first

four chapters in order to understand how to operate and service the printer. This is necessary

in order to load the paper, change the printer ribbon, and understand it's operation. To begin

printer set up, you must first load the paper, print ribbon and connect the power supply. Place

the printer in a convenient spot near the oven.

Do NOT place the printer on top of the oven on the left side. The paper

may block the air inlet fan and cause overheating of the electronic controls.

2. Disconnect electrical power to the unit by turning

off the circuit in the main supply panel. Locate the

cable connections in either the front left corner or the

right rear corner of the unit and test each cable to

ground, using a VOM meter. Any resistance reading

to ground will indicate a shorted or open cable to

ground and the cable will need to be replaced. If this

checks out okay, proceed to step 3.

3. Reconnect electrical power to the unit. Check the

solid state relay mounted on the metal heat sink.

With the unit circuit breaker switch on

and #2. See Figure 4. There should be line voltage

(200-240 VAC) present. With the VOM meter set on

the DC volt scale, check across the trigger terminals #3

and #4, taking care to observe polarity. There should

be less than 1 volt DC current present. If not, the

solid state relay is defective.

4. On the same solid state relay, with the unit in the

preheat mode and using a VOM meter set to the DC

volt scale, check across the trigger terminal #3 and #4,

taking care to observe polarity. See Figure 5. There

should be a reading of between 3.5 and 5 volt DC

REMEDY

Thaw food prior to placing in oven.

Test air sensor by placing sensor in ice

water bath and using an ohmmeter set on

the ohm scale. The reading should be

approximately 100 ohms resistance. If the

sensor tests out and there are bullet connec-

tors on the leads, cut off bullet connectors,

strip back the insulation 1/2", slide a piece

of heat shrink tubing over the wire, twist the

wires together and solder. Slide the heat

shrink tubing over the soldered connection

and heat in order to shrink material.

Change the voltage setting, referring to the

instructions in Section 6, Service Setup.

Replace heating cable.
