FEATURES OF THE ROTISSERIE OVEN

Operator’s Manual

The Cleveland Range rotisserie oven is a high
capacity, gas fired oven, ideal for producing
perfectly cooked, delicious, and appealing meats
and other foods.

The oven combines several cooking and
processing techniques, including:

• Temperature-controlled oven cooking

• Variable speed Rotisserie spit cooking

• Convection oven cooking

• Infra-red browning

• Moisture control venting

Other performance features:

• Heavy-duty rotating spit system, with:

− Choice of removable spits

− Optional load handling tools

− Spit transport cart

• High capacity, water-filled drip pan

• Easy-cleaning surfaces inside and out

• Large viewing window and lighted interior

• 2 door option for easy loading and

unloading

• Gas fireplace option, either in
the operator’s door or in back
of unit to provide the
appearance of cooking over an
open flame

Oven Controller – The oven is

equipped with a programmable
cooking controller that can hold up
to 16 cooking programs, with up to 3
stages in each program, plus hold/warm.
This allows you to specify the exact cooking times
and temperatures you desire to prepare any food.
Once set up, these programs will produce perfectly
repeatable results every time.

DRUM
AND SPITS

Rotisserie and Spits – Up to 7 or 8 spits can

be installed into the rotisserie oven (depending on
model). If fewer are used, they should be installed
so they are balanced around the drum.

A few spits are available for different loads:

• The standard model is the axial “V” spit, used for
spitting chicken and similar items. Chicken
should be trussed with string to keep it secure.
There are two versions of the “V” spit, a long ”V”
for bigger chicken and a short “V” for smaller
chicken.

• Another useful spit is the “basket”. This is
used for roasting product which cannot be
easily secured to an axial spit, such as turkey
breasts, hams, spareribs, etc.

Infrared Gas Burner – The burner provides

heat for both convection cooking and infrared
browning. The controller can power the burner at
“high heat” (60,000 BTUH) or “low heat” (48,000
BTUH), accommodating different load sizes and
browning needs.

Oven Vent

center of the oven. This vent is operated by the
controller and can be programmed within each
cooking stage to 1) open and close to regulate the
temperature, or 2) to remain closed, while the
burner is turned on and off to regulate the
temperature.

– There is a vent located in the top

NOTE: National Codes Require That a
Ventilating Hood Must be Installed

gas burner produces combustion gases which
must be vented to the outside. The entire oven
must be placed under the ventilating hood.

Be sure to turn on the powered ventilating hood
every time before you start the oven.

Convection Fans

fans located inside the top of the oven. The fans
continuously circulate the hot air in the oven in
every cooking stage. The fans are pulsed during
the hold/warm stage to eliminate any drying factor.

Convection cooking produces an even, consistent
heat in the entire oven cavity and speeds up the
roasting process over a conventional oven.

– There are 2 circulating

– The

Preheat Mode – When you first turn on the

oven, the controller ignites the burners to bring the
oven to its pre-programmed PREHEAT
temperature of 300°F. (The Preheat temperature
can be changed. See System Level Programming
later in this guide.)

Ready Mode – After the Preheat mode is

complete, the controller holds the oven in the
READY mode. In this mode the Preheat
Temperature is maintained for 20 minutes in
readiness for you to load the oven with the product
to be cooked.

Standby Mode – After the oven has reached

the READY temperature, the controller waits for
you to load the spits and press the desired Menu
Item button. If no button is pressed for 20 minutes,
the controller enters the STANDBY mode, in which
the oven temperature is “setback” for energy
savings, and held there until you are ready to
again preheat the oven. The pre-programmed
Standby temperature is 200°F (the Standby
temperature can be changed. See System Level
Programming later in this guide). Touching any
button takes the unit out of Standby mode and
back into Preheat mode.

Cooking Mode - After preheating and loading,

a cooking cycle is started by pressing the desired
Menu Item button. The button light will flash during
cooking. At the cycle’s end, an alarm will sound
and the controller will enter the Hold/Warm mode.

Rotisserie Advance Button – This feature

allows you to manually activate (“jog”) the
rotisserie motor while the oven door is open.
Jogging brings to the front of the oven each
rotisserie spit position for easy loading or
unloading.

Gas Fireplace (if equipped) – This feature

provides the appearance of cooking over an open
flame. A fireplace switch allows it to be turned off
or operate automatically. In the automatic mode,
the fireplace turns on whenever one of the 16
cooking programs is operating. If the fireplace only
is desired for ambience, item 16 is pre­programmed to operate the fireplace without the
main burner.

Hold/Warm Mode – After the cooking cycle

ends, the oven automatically goes into the
Hold/Warm Mode. Typically the hold temperature
is 175°F (but you can program a different hold
temperature at the system level). The rotisserie
speed is reduced to 1 rpm. The alphanumeric
display shows the total time the product has been
holding and continues counting up. After 2 hours,
the alarm tone sounds, indicating the product can
no longer be held warm safely.

Daily Startup Procedure – perform every day before using the oven.

Do not load any food into the oven unless it has been cleaned,
inspected, filled with water and PREHEATED.

1. Prepare Oven

Each day, before starting up the oven, prepare it
for the day’s cooking.

The oven must be clean before starting. (It should
be cleaned at the end of each day, per procedures
given later in this guide.) Make sure the oven
window is clean – use a mild detergent or an
approved glass cleaner. (Also, make sure the
fireplace glass is clean in fireplace models – use
razor blade scraper supplied.)

If not done the previous night, before starting the
oven, we recommend you spray all interior
stainless steel surfaces, including inside of the
rotisserie drums, jet plate, and convection fans,
with Jef-Guard or another oven coating: this will
make cleaning the oven much easier at the end of
the day. DO NOT SPRAY BURNER SURFACE.

In single-door models, a hanging metal burner
shield is installed inside the oven for use during

spraying. This must be lifted to cover the burner
while the interior of the oven is sprayed with the
protective coating. Make sure this shield is used
every time the oven interior is coated. (Two-door
models are supplied with a loose shield for this
same purpose.)

Inspect the oven to make sure all interior parts are
in good working order and in place. Make sure

the “jet plate” (which guides the convection air)
is NOT hanging down but is in its normal
position. (See the drawing in Operator’s Daily
Cleaning/Maintenance section of this manual.)

Make sure the oven is located the minimum
required distance from other equipment and
walls. There must be a minimum clearance of 3

inches on each side and 3 inches at the back.
(Two door models require 36 inches rear
clearance, except for hearth installations, where
back of unit may be in contact with non­combustible hearth wall opening.)

2. Fill Drip Pan with Water

There is a drip pan at the bottom of the oven. The
water in this pan has two functions: 1) it helps keep
oven moisture at a constant level, and 2) it catches
food drippings, keeping them from burning onto the
bottom surface of the oven.

The pan must be drained at the end of every
cooking day and refilled at the beginning of the

next cooking day. (Refer to Daily
Cleaning/Maintenance later in this guide for
cleaning instructions.)

The drip pan holds 3 gallons of water. Use fresh
water at the beginning of each day. Before filling
the pan, make sure the drain valve located below
the oven is closed.

Operator’s Manual

3. Preheat Oven

Make sure the door is closed, then turn the oven
power ON. The oven controller first displays
“SYSTEM INIT,” which indicates the cooking
controller is functioning properly. If burner does
not light, a buzzer will sound. Reset controller by
turning power switch OFF for 5 minutes and then
back ON.

The controller will then display “PREHEAT”
“XXX°F.” This message indicates that the Preheat
mode has started. The current oven temperature

is also displayed (which, if the oven has been idle
for some time, will be room temperature).

In the Preheat mode, the burner will fire at high
heat, the convection fans will be on, the rotor will
turn, and the oven light will be off. If unit has a
fireplace, the fireplace will be off.

As the oven burner continues firing, the
temperature readout on the control panel will
steadily rise.

4. Ready Mode

When the oven has reached the programmed
Preheat temperature, the alarm tone will sound for
5 seconds and then go off. The display will show
“READY” and approximately “300°F” (or another

temperature if programmed differently).

Rotisserie Oven 4

The oven is now ready to be loaded. Refer to the
loading instructions on the next page for loading
details.

Operator’s Manual

Spit Selection and Preparation

Select the proper spit for the food you will be
cooking. There are a few spits available
from Cleveland Range for this. Some meats,
like chicken, need to be trussed with string
before spitting. Others, like turkey breasts,
ham, and ribs should be secured in the non­skewerable product basket spits. Prepare
enough spits at one time for your entire daily
requirements. Be sure to follow safe food
handling and storage practices. Spit
handling tools, counter top skewer holder,
and a transport cart are available to
make your preparation and handling
easier.

Standby Mode (Idle)

If you don’t load the oven and start a cooking
program within 20 minutes after READY mode
begins, the controller will put the oven into the
Standby mode. The oven displays “STANDBY”
and the temperature is set back to 200°F (or
another temperature if programmed differently).

The oven will remain in standby until you either
turn the oven off or press any button except for the
Prog buttons. Once a button is pressed, the oven
will go into PREHEAT mode and then READY
mode after it reaches 300°F.

Oven Loading Procedure

NOTE: Make sure all food, spits, and spit-loading

implements are ready, so you can work
quickly. If you leave the oven open too long,
the oven may cool off too much, causing the
product to be under-cooked.

1. When the oven is preheated, and the controller
display reads “Ready,” using disposable
gloves, bring the scheduled load over to the
oven. Check to make sure all product is
evenly spaced and secure on the spits.

2. Open the door leaving ample space to access
the interior of the oven. On fireplace door units,
flip up the burner cover so that foreign matter
doesn’t enter and clog the burner ports. Place
the rod end of the spit into the round hole
located in the left drum up to the ¾-inch
washer on the spit.

Before loading the oven….

1. Be sure the oven is PREHEATED.

2. Have all spits loaded with product and secured.

3. Line up the hex side of the spit with the hex
drive socket located in the right side drum.
When sliding the hex into the socket, a slight
rotating motion may be necessary for the hex
to slide into the hole. Once it slides in all the
way, the left side of the spit rod will rest on the
smaller diameter rod.

Note: Always balance the oven load around
the rotisserie wheels. When loading 4 spits or
baskets, skip a position in between each spit.
When unloading, remove every other one.

4. Press the Rotisserie Advance (Jog) Button to
rotate the rotor until the next slots to load are
centered in the opening.

5. When done, flip down the burner cover on
fireplace door units. Close the door firmly and
wipe the oven handle, jog button, and burner
cover with a sanitized towel.
