Appliance Description and Intended Use

Description The Alto-Shaam Vector series oven uses structured air technology and 3-stage

cooking. Air is delivered by a blower located in the rear of each cook cavity. Air travels through the shelves (jet plates) and is delivered vertically through Structured Air plates in the top and bottom of the cook chamber. This provides even distribution across the food which is the most efficient manner to maximize heat transfer. Each cook cavity is separate from the other with its own blower and heat source. The operator can select the optimal cooking temperature, air velocity, and cook time for the food in each cavity.

VMC-TS-000271

Configurations The Vector H-Series is available in three configurations: two-, three-, and four-

cavity.

Intended use The Vector series ovens are intended to cook and warm food only. Any other use

is prohibited.
