protruding area of the hood. Grease filters should
be thoroughly cleaned on a regular basis following
manufacturer's instruction. Ventilation hoods must
ensure an adequate amount of incoming air during
operation and must be operated whenever the
combination oven/steamer is used in order to avoid
the accumulation of condensation in the hood area.

POSITIONING REQUIREMENTS

q In order to ensure proper ventilation, a minimum

distance of at least 4-inches (101mm) must be kept from
the sides of the oven and any adjoining surfaces.

NOTE: Additional clearance is needed for service
access. A minimum distance of 18-inches is strongly
recommended. If adequate service clearance is not
provided, it will be necessary to disconnect the water,
and drain to move the oven with a fork lift for service
access. Charges in connection with inadequate service
access is not covered under warranty.

q Allow a minimum of 4" (102mm) from the right side

of the oven to allow the door to open to at least a 90°
angle. Fully opened, the door will extend up to a
225° angle.

q Allow a minimum clearance of 4" (102mm) from the

back of the oven for plumbing connections.

q Allow a 20" (500mm) clearance at the top of the oven for

free air movement and for the steam vent(s) located at
the top.

q Do not install the oven adjacent to heat producing

equipment such as fryers, broilers, etc. Heat from such
appliances may cause damage to the controls of the
Combitherm. Minimum clearance recommended:
20" (500mm)

Place the Combitherm oven on a stable, non-combustible
level horizontal surface. For countertop models, the
oven stand must be level. Level from front-to-back and
side-to-side by means of the adjustable legs. In addition,
the overall height of the oven
should be positioned so the
operating controls and shelves
may be conveniently reached
from the front.

1) Remove legs from the CT Express

2) Carefully left and set the CT Express on Stand

3) Flush the sides and back of CT Express and Stand

4) Secure the CT Express to Stand in four places with
Screws and Lock Washers.
