Enjoy your Alto-Shaam Combi Oven!
The combi oven combines a steam and convection oven into one versatile unit and can serve a variety of cooking functions. Alto-Shaam’s combi ovens allow chefs to control humidity and temperature separately, with powerful results. The same oven can be used to dehydrate vegetables, roast pork, steam rice, smoke brisket and bake loaves of bread.
The PROtouch™ recipe management system with one-touch cooking provides complete control over the oven, allowing chefs and foodservice employees to select pre-programmed recipes
Before Use
If this is the rst time this oven is being used, or if the oven has just been removed from storage, follow these steps for cleaning:
1. Remove all packing material from the oven,
2. Remove and wash any detachable items such as wire shelves, side racks, pans, and drip trays with hot, soapy water. Dry with a clean, damp lint-free cloth.
3. Remove all visible grease or oil from the oven.
4. Clean the interior and exterior of the oven with a mild soap and water solution. Apply the solution with a clean, damp cloth. Do not use commercial or household cleaners that contain ammonia. Wipe with a clean, damp cloth to remove all detergent residue. Dry with a clean, lint-free cloth.

for maximum consistency. To store and secure important information, a HACCP data system pairs up with an onboard USB port, so settings can be downloaded and saved for the future.
When it’s time to clean up, Alto-Shaam’s CombiClean Plus™ automated cleaning system saves labor previously spent scrubbing the oven cavity. On the oven’s exterior, a PROrinse™ retractable hose gives you spray-washing power without opening the oven door.
5. Clean the oven glass with glass cleaner or distilled vinegar. Re-install the side racks and wire shelves – position shelves with the curved end up and toward the rear of the oven.
When cleaning is complete, the oven must acclimate to room temperature in the environment where it is placed. Twenty four (24) hours is recommended.
The oven is now ready for operation.

Auxiliary Functions and Features
Preheat Feature
The oven should be preheated before most cooking functions. When cooking full loads, use a temperature 50°F (10°C) greater than the cook temperature in order to recover from heat loss when the door is opened to add food to the oven. For items that use the Steam mode, it is necessary to use a preheat temperature lower than the cook temperature in order to create the proper amount ofsteam.
Press the On button to power oven on.
Touch the Preheat icon. Type in desired temperature.
Touch the green Check Mark icon to startpreheating.

Cool Down Feature

The cool-down feature provides the operator with the ability to lower the temperature of the oven compartment at an accelerated pace. This function is useful when it is necessary to immediately change from a high temperature cooking function to a lower temperature function or to the steam program. This function is also useful to help cool the oven compartment in preparation for cleaning.
TIP: Always allow the oven walls to cool to a minimum
of 140°F (60°C) before spraying the compartment with oven cleaner.

Auxiliary Functions and Features

Humidity Control Feature

The humidity control feature is an automatic function designed to regulate humidity to provide additional color to food as needed. This feature is particularly useful for adding color to high moisture products such as chicken and other poultry, or for additional browning of full loads and other moist products. In addition, this feature may be used to add texture to fried items such as french fries or breaded chicken. Humidity control can be used in any cooking mode and can be programmed into a cooking procedure.
Touch the nearest 10% increment on the le side of the screen, and then adjust up or down using the + or – icons.

Operation
Steam Mode Chef Operating Tips
This mode will steam a full or partial load of a single product, or multiple products without transfer of avors. When steaming multiple products, however, individual product cooking times must be taken into consideration.
Steam
Perforated, 2-1/2" (65mm) deep pans 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 ensure 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.
When cooking by probe, the probe must be inserted so that the tip is positioned in the center of the food mass. For liquid or semi-liquid foods, suspend the probe in the center of the product and secure the probe wire to the edge of the container.
High Temp Steam
High temperature steaming is suitable for hearty, root-type vegetables such as potatoes, turnips, carrots, and cabbage.
High temperature steaming provides a cooking time which is approximately 10% shorter than the regular steam mode temperature of 212°F (100°C).
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, sh,seafood, crème caramel, and sous vide.
For best results, low temperature steam all delicate food items at a temperature of 210°F (99°C) or below.

Combination Mode
CAUTION HOT
Operation
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 convection oven.

Operation
Combination Mode Chef Operating Tips
The Combination mode injects the optimum amount of steam automatically. There is no need to select humidity levels. Foods do not dry out. Flavors are retained with no transfer of avors 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 efcient when used for baking, broiling, grilling, stewing, braising, androasting.
When using the Combination mode, cooking temperatures can be reduced 10%–20% below the temperatures used for conventional cooking methods.
Cooking time will be reduced approximately 40% when cooking at the same temperature used for convection oven cooking and up to 50%60% 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 set humidity control into the product procedure. Humidity control 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).
When cooking by probe, the probe must be inserted so that the tip is positioned in the center of the food mass. For liquid or semi-liquid foods, suspend the probe in the center of the product and secure the probe wire to the edge of the container.

Convection Mode
CAUTION HOT
Operation
The Convection mode operates with hot circulated air within a temperature range of 85°F to 575°F (30°C to 300°C). For many applications, better results may be achieved with the Combination mode; therefore, the operator may want to consider using the Convection mode on a more limited basis. The use of high temperatures (500°F to 575°F) are not intended for continuoususe.
