I. INSTRUCTION FOR THE INSTALLER

Congratulations! You have just purchased a new Cadco LineChefTM Digital Convection Oven. Let’s go over
some of the basics before you start using your new oven.

1. DATA PLATE

2. CERTIFICATION

2.1 The “CSA” mark on our data labels and on our user manual refers to the following listings:
Certifications are listed under UNOX S.p.A., CSA file #202281, including XAF series oven models

Class Number:
Class Number:

2831-03
2831-83

DESCRIPTION:
DESCRIPTION:

HEATERS-Cooking and Liquid - Stationary Type
HEATERS-Cooking and Liquid-Stationary Type-

Certified to U.S. Standards

TO THE REQUIREMENTS OF UL 197 (8th edition)

2.2 The “NSF” mark refers to listing including XAF series oven models under UNOX SPA for NSF/ANSI
STANDARD 4: Commercial Cooking, Rethermalization and Powered Hot Food Holding and Transport
Equipment

3. INSTALLATION - PRELIMINARY OPERATIONS

All electrical connections and installation operations must be done by qualified personnel, and comply
with all existing codes.

3.1 CHECK THE LOCATION OF INSTALLATION

Verify the overall measurements and the exact position of the electrical and water connections (where
applicable) before installing the oven. Refer to the illustrations in
the separate “technical data” document for your model.

3.2 FEET ASSEMBLY

You will find the feet packed inside your oven’s cooking cavity.

must

The feet

be used when your oven is in operation. Never use
your oven without its feet properly installed. Assemble the feet as
shown. (Full size models now come with tall feet that screw into
place; all other models come with shorter feet that pop into place.)

3.3 POSITIONING
Place your oven so the back and sides can be easily reached. This will make the electrical connections
and any servicing points easily accessible. Your oven is not designed for built-in applications or for side
by side positioning. Cadco suggests you leave a minimum distance of 4” between the back of the oven
and the wall to allow for the escape of moisture. The oven must be placed upon a support, a stand, or on
top of a counter made of non-combustible material. Never install the oven directly on the floor.

If the
oven is placed near walls, dividers, kitchen cabinets, decorated edges or drapes, they must be made of
non combustible material.

3.4 REMOVE THE PROTECTIVE FILM

Carefully remove all the protective film from the external walls of your oven. Be sure to remove any
residual glue left on the outside of the oven with an appropriate solvent.

4. INSTALLATION

4.1 ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

• Connection to the electrical power source must be done according to all state and local codes. Before
connecting your oven, make sure that the voltage and the amps comply with those stated on the data plate
of your oven. Avoid using patch cords and multiple jacks.

• The appliance must be placed so that the connection plug to the outlet can be easily reached.
When the appliance is in operation, the power supply voltage must not diverge from the value of the
nominal voltage, written on the technical data plate, by more than + or – 10%.

• Ovens are equipped with cordset and NEMA plug (single phase; 120V or 208-240V, depending on oven
model.) It is sufficient to insert the plug in the proper outlet (the outlet must be suitable for the plug
assembled on the oven.)

4.2 WATER CONNECTION (available on all digital models EXCEPT XAF-111 & XAF-130, per below)

• CONNECTION TO THE WATER NET: Full Size digital oven models (XAF-188 & XAF-195)

come with an electrovalve for direct water connection.

♦ A mechanical filter must be placed between the water system and the water connection of the oven.
♦ Before connecting the water pipe to the oven, please allow a suitable amount of water flow, in order to

clean the duct from any residue.

♦ The water used in the oven must have a nominal pressure value between 0.5 and 2 bars.
♦ The water must have a hardness between 0.5° and 5°F (to avoid formation of lime deposits inside the

electric valve and inside the cavity).

♦ Cadco suggests you use a decalcification filter in order to maintain fan balance.

• AUXILIARY WATER PUMP: Half Size digital ovens with Dynamic control panels (XAF-115 &

XAF-135) come with an EL080 Auxiliary Water Pump included, for manually pumping water from a
bucket or other container. WARNING: Before using the water pump, always make sure that there is
water in the tank. Damage to the pump can occur if it is operated without water in the tank and it will
void your warranty. If the pump makes “groaning” sounds, it is probably due to lack of water in the tank
or the pump is simply running an air bubble through the system.

• Hot air and steam will exit the oven from the back exhaust port. During most cooking cycles, you will
have hot and humid exhaust coming out from this exhaust port (temperature and humidity of this exhaust
depend on the cooking parameters being used.) The steam that comes out of the exhaust port can also be
vented outside if desired.

II. INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE USER

Never allow grease splatters or spills to collect on the inside walls, floor, or ceiling of your oven. A
simple cleaning with soap and water is usually enough to keep your oven spotless and in “like new”
condition for years. Your oven should never be cleaned with a water hose or anything more powerful
than a spritz bottle. For tougher cleaning and built up grease, we suggest using Foam Plus® from
Discovery Products Corporation (Tel. [phone].)

1. INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE OPERATOR
You will find important information about maintaining and operating your new oven in this manual.
Please read the manual and become familiar with your new oven before you begin to operate it. Keep the
manual in a safe place and make sure everyone reads it before operating the oven. Please use only Cadco
authorized service centers and always require quality UNOX-OEM parts. Failure to comply with these
standards can compromise safety and will void your warranty.

2. NOTES FOR USE

• Your Cadco oven was designed to cook food and must be used only for that specific purpose. Any other
use may void your warranty. The usable operating temperature range is approx. 140°F to 500°F. It is
suggested that you allow about 2-3” between trays for proper air circulation during the cooking process.

4

Use your Cadco oven for:

♦ Baking all types of bread and pastry, both fresh and frozen.
♦ Cooking any meat, fish, or fowl.
♦ Rethermalizing any cooled or frozen cooked foods.
♦ Cooking (not steaming) any kinds of vegetables.

• Please avoid salting your food products while they are inside the cooking cavity. Salt is very corrosive

and may, over time, damage the interior of your oven.

3.1 USE OF “CLASSIC” CONTROL PANEL (Models XAF-111 & XAF-130)

The Classic Control Panel can operate in “Manual” and in “Programmed” modes.

For each cooking cycle (both in the Manual and in the Programmed mode)

the operator can set cooking time and oven temperature.

MANUAL MODE

• Switching On / Switching Off

♦ When the power is turned on, the light in the cooking cavity will come on and remain on while there is

power to the oven. The display window will read “0.00” (this shows the time in hours and minutes).

♦ 15 minutes after a preset program ends or the cooking time expires, the light inside the cooking

chamber will automatically shut off. The display and lights will be off, except for the red START /
STOP light. To switch on the control panel, simply press the

START / STOP key.

• SELECT KEY

The

SELECT key allows the operator to select and set two functions: TIME and TEMPERATURE.

• TIME

♦ To choose the Time function, press the SELECT key until the red Time indicator light is lit next to

the Time icon (clock) on the control panel.

♦ To set the time function, use the or key. Hold the key down to quickly scroll to desired setting.
♦ The maximum time allowed in each step is 9 hours and 59 minutes, which will show in the display

window as “9.59”. Minimum time per step is 1 minute.

5

♦ Press the key when time is set at “0”, and “INF” will appear in the display window. The oven will

then work continuously until you stop it by pressing the START / STOP key.

• TEMPERATURE

♦ To choose the Temperature function, press the SELECT key until the red Temperature indicator

light is lit next to the Temperature icon (thermometer) on the control panel.

♦ To set the temperature, use the or keys. Hold the key down to quickly scroll to desired setting.
♦ The usable operating temperature range is approx. 140°F to 500°F. The default temperature is 356°F.

• START / STOP COOKING CYCLE

♦ To start or stop the cooking cycle, press the START / STOP key.
♦ At the end of the cooking cycle, the heating element(s) and fan(s) will stop running and a tone will

sound for 15 seconds. The digits “0.00” will flash for 45 seconds in the display window. The original
temperature remains as entered at the beginning of the cooking cycle and the START / STOP LED
will remain on.

♦ If during these 45 seconds, the operator chooses to set a different time/temperature (using the or ,

and SELECT keys) and begin another cook cycle, the oven will then automatically begin the new
cook cycle.

♦ At the end of the 45 seconds, or if the cooking cycle is interrupted by pressing the START / STOP

key, all the parameters previously set will be erased, unless they have been saved as a “program”
and assigned a number in memory. (See “PROGRAMMED MODE” below.)

• TO VIEW / MODIFY YOUR COOKING PARAMETERS DURING THE COOKING CYCLE

While the oven is in its cooking cycle, it is possible to view the cooking parameters and modify them if
the oven is operating in the manual mode. To view the different parameters (Time, Temperature), simply
press the SELECT key to advance the light.

♦ If you select “Time”, the display shows the remaining time.
♦ If you select “Temperature”, the display will alternate between the set temperature (steady light) and

the actual temperature (flashing light).
