ECOSMART®TECHNOLOGY
The Alto-Shaam CombiTouch Combitherm
combination oven/steamer employs
Ecosmart operating efficiencies in the
design and application of all operating
and programming functions. Ecosmart
operational characteristics include the use of a water
barrier to close the oven compartment to the outside
air. While maintaining a non-pressurized
atmosphere, the primary purpose of the Ecosmart
system is to prevent the steam and heat generated
within the oven compartment from freely escaping
to the outside.
The Ecosmart design displaces the air within the
cooking compartment and achieves a higher level of
steam saturation that offers quick-steaming at
temperatures above 212°F (100°C).
This guide is provided as an operational aid with
step-by-step instructions of the basic functions of
the Combitherm oven, along with the many other
additional features of the control.

IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
NOTE: Automatic steam venting is a standard safety
feature built into all Combitherm oven
models. This feature vents all steam from the
oven compartment immediately before
cooking time expires or set probe temperature
is reached.
This function is provided in all programmed
and timed production when operating in any
Steam, Combination, Convection, and
Retherm cooking mode. Automatic steam
venting does not function if the oven door is
opened before time expires or when the oven
has been set to continuous operation.
NOTE: Use authorized combitherm oven cleaner only.
unauthorized cleaning agents may discolor or
harm interior surfaces of the oven. Read and
understand label and material safety data sheet
before using the oven cleaner.

O P E R AT I N GI N S T R U C T I O N S
STEAM MODE CHEF OPERATING TIPS
This mode will steam a full or partial load of a single
product, or multiple products without transfer of flavors.
When steaming multiple products, however, individual
product cooking times must be taken into consideration.
STEAM
Perforated, 2-1/2" deep pans (65mm)
are particularly suitable for use in
this program mode. These pans will
provide a shorter cooking time and
will prevent product over-cooking at
the bottom of the pan.
Separate ice-encrusted vegetables
before steaming to assure more even
cooking.
A variety of products can be steamed
at the same time but attention must
be paid to the different cooking times
required for each food product.
HIGH TEMP STEAMING
High temperature steaming is
suitable for hearty, root-type
vegetables such as potatoes, legumes,
and cabbage.
High temperature steaming provides
a cooking time which is
approximately 10-percent shorter
than the regular steam mode
temperature of 212°F (100°C).
Set the steam cooking temperature
between 221°F (105°C) and 230°F
(110°C) for small loads and between
230°F (110°C) and 250°F (121°C) for
full loads.
The non-pressurized atmosphere of the Combitherm also
provides the ability to open the door during the steam
mode in order to monitor products more closely
throughout the steaming process.
LOW TEMP STEAM
The low temperature steam mode
will function whenever the oven
compartment temperature is below
212°F (100°C).
It will take longer to steam products
using the low temperature steam
mode.
Steaming sausages in low
temperature steam prevents cracked
or peeling skins.
Use low temperature steam for
delicate foods such as shrimp, fish,
seafood, and crème caramel.
For best results, low temperature
steam all delicate food items at a
temperature of 210°F (99°C)
or below.

COMBINATION MODE
The Combination mode will prove to be the most versatile
and widely used mode the Combitherm oven has to offer.
It will produce the best possible results on the widest
variety of products — all within the shortest period of
time. The unique control function of this mode enables the
operator to roast or bake with a combination of steam and
convection heat. In addition to shorter cooking times, this
combination of steam and heat offers less product
shrinkage and more moisture retention than obtained in a
standard convection oven.

COMBINATION MODE CHEF OPERATING TIPS
The Combination mode injects the optimum amount of
steam automatically. There is no need to select moisture
levels. Foods do not dry out. Flavors are retained with no
transfer of flavors when mixing product loads.
Due to automatic steam adjustment, the door can be
opened at any time during a cooking operation. Be certain
to observe the safety warning when opening the oven
door.
The Combination mode is particularly efficient when used
for baking, broiling, grilling, stewing, braising, and
roasting.
When using the Combination mode, cooking temperatures
can be reduced 10- to 20-percent below the temperatures
used for conventional cooking methods.
Cooking time will be reduced approximately 40-percent
when cooking at the same temperature used for
convection oven cooking and up to 50- to 60-percent less
time when cooking at the same temperature used for a
conventional oven.
Food browning in the Combitherm begins at a cooking
temperature of approximately 250°F (120°C).
A higher cooking temperature results in heavier browning
but also results in greater product weight loss. To achieve
additional browning use the Moisture Vent Key or set
Gold-n-Brown into the product procedure. Gold-n-Brown
is particularly useful for adding color to high moisture
products such as chicken and other poultry items or for
additional browning of full loads and other moist
products.
The Combination mode provides even browning without
the necessity to turn the pans.
For more even cooking, do not cook in pans deeper than
4” (100mm).
