IMPORTANT: Read the following safety and operation instructions to avoid injury and to avoid damage to equipment or property.
IMPORTANT: Read the following safety and operation instructions to avoid injury and to avoid damage to equipment or property.
Plug unit into a properly grounded electrical outlet of the correct voltage, size, and plug configuration for this
unit. We recommend usage on an individual branch circuit of at least 15 amps for best results. Failure to do so
may result in decreased performance of the oven.
The oven should never be operated on or near combustible materials. Caution should be taken because of the hot
surfaces attained during use.
Exterior surfaces on unit may get hot. Use caution when touching these areas to avoid injury.
Unplug oven when not in use.
INITIAL START UP
Before you use your new Nemco GS1200 Convection Oven, you will want to follow the steps listed below in order
to get rid of any oil, film, etc. that may still be on the oven from the manufacturing process.
The unit may initially smoke during this process.
• Clean the oven with a mild detergent inside & out
• Turn the oven’s temperature control dial to 400°F
• Allow the oven to run for approximately 60 minutes
• After this cycle, you are now ready to start cooking
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
PREHEAT
Preheat the oven 30°F-50°F higher than the temperature you will be cooking at. Once you have loaded the food
product into the oven and closed the oven door turn the temperature back to the required cooking temperature.
TEMPERATURE
Most products require lower temperatures than suggested for deck or range ovens. A standard temperature
reduction of 25°F-30°F is recommended as a starting point. Actual baking will vary pending product weight and
consistency. If the edges of the product are done and the center is still raw or there is extensive color variation,
reduce the thermostat setting by 15°F-25°F until the desired results are achieved. Excessive temperatures will
not reduce baking time.
TIME
Convection ovens generally bake 20% faster than deck or range ovens even though lower temperatures are used.
Most recipes can be converted by having shorter cooking times and/or reducing your cooking temperatures.
• Frozen food products will require more time than refrigerated products
• 3 trays of food product will take more cook time than 1 tray of food
PRODUCTS
Load the oven from the bottom up. To ensure even baking, equal amounts of products should be used. Different
amounts of product in different pans can cause uneven baking.
• We suggest a clearance of 1-3 inches between pans when cooking for proper air circulation and best
results.

CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
Unit is not waterproof. Do Not submerge in water. Do not operate if unit has been submerged in water.
Unplug unit from power source and allow to cool completely before performing any maintenance or cleaning.
The inside of the oven can be cleaned with a mild detergent, water, and a soft cloth. Do not use acids or caustic
products such as foaming oven cleaners.
Pans, racks and support racks are easily removed for cleaning with a mild detergent, water and soft cloth. To
remove support racks, simply lift up and out.
The outside of the oven can be cleaned with a mild detergent, water, and soft cloth.You may also use a stainless
steel cleaner.
AVOID USING ABRASIVE/SCOURING PADS AS SOME MAY CAUSE SCRATCH MARKS ON YOUR UNIT.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Unplug unit from power source and allow to cool completely before performing any maintenance or cleaning.
UNIT SMOKING ON FIRST USAGE:
• See Initial Start Up on page 2
UNIT NOT WORKING:
• Check timer, power cord, and/or electrical circuit.
• Hit the reset button; this is the RED button located along the edge of the back of the unit.
OVEN SHUTS DOWN WHEN YOU ARE OPERATING AT HIGH TEMPERATURES:
• This oven comes equipped with an automatic high temperature limiting thermostat designed to protect the
oven from overheating and/or power fluctuations. Follow these steps to reset the high temperature limiting
thermostat and resume safe operation:
1. Press the reset button to the “in” position. This button is found at the rear of the oven next to the power
cord.
2. Begin food preparation after the oven is preheated.
• If the thermal breaker shuts your unit down, be sure to check your entire circuit before turning the oven
back on to verify that the total amps being drawn by all the appliances on that circuit have not exceeded the
amount of amps available.
• A faulty regulating thermostat may be the cause if the hi-limit thermostat keeps tripping.
