General Tips
Most products cook according to manufacturer’s directions.
The internal temperature of most products increases 5 to 10 degrees when
removed from the oven. Err on the side of lower temperature; you can always
put an item back in the oven.
Use caution when opening the door during operation. Open the door slightly
to allow moisture to escape then open completely as the steam dissipates.
A couple of simple techniques can be used to reduce the moisture and enhance
browning when needed. When changing from Steam to Combi or to Oven mode, quickly reduce moisture in the cavity
by opening the door slightly for up to one minute. Use the CrispEase™ function in Combi and Oven modes to reduce
moist ure in the cavity during the c ooking process and to promote browning.
Use the hour meter to build a cleaning schedule unique to your operation.
For daily cleaning, use a spray de-greaser and follow the instructions on the door for operating the CLEAN cycle. To control
possible lime scale buildup, use a simple solution of 1 part white vinegar to 32 parts water in a spray bottle. Spray the
reservoirs with the vinegar solution and loosen solid lime or hard water deposits with a non-abrasive pad or brush. Rinse
with water and allow to air dry.
Steam Mode
Use 2” perforated pans where possible and avoid mounding product above the top lip of the pans.
1” perforated pans work well for protein pro ducts. Single layerin g is best when steaming protein products such as hot
Flavors do not transfer through steam, but they do travel with liquid. Make sure to have your solid pans above your perforated
pans when cooking multiple products.
To aid in daily clean ing, use a sheet pan on the bottom rack to catch solids and proteins from dripping pans. T h e pan will
need to be drained occasionally if it is used for extended periods of time.
Use solid pans for rice, hot cereals and grits. Start with package instructions and experiment with the water ratio until you
ypically follows cook times on the package.
Combination Mode
Combi cooking helps balance the moisture level in the oven with the aid of steam, compared to drawing moisture from the
products being cooked in a dry oven mode.
To increase the yield of cooked meats and prepared items, reduce the oven temperature and increase the cooking time.
The low moisture setting works well for most products and the CrispEase feature provides for light browning.
Hi moisture is used to transfer as much heat to the product as possible with minimal moisture loss and no browning. The
CrispEase feature is typically used to provide some browning or caramelization.
The CrispEase func tion will aid in the preparation of oven-able french fries and breaded items. Be gin in Combi Mode and
2 – 3 minutes into the cooking cycle press the CrispEase button for the remainder of the cooking process.
Use wire baskets for preparing oven-able fries, breaded patties and nuggets. If needed, spray a light coating of pan spray
on the baskets to eliminate sticking.
Convection Mode
Due to the ComboEase unique design, a reversing fan is not needed to distribute
heat in the cavity. This provides a more subtle browning pattern. When cooking
one pan, use the second rack position from the top. When cooking three or
more pans be sure to spread them out to provide the best air circulation.
Since the convection mode has a high degree of natural humidity from the products
mode can be cooked in ComboEase Convection mode to the same effect.
