12. Never attempt to deep fry in the oven.

13. The appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons without supervision.

14. Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance

ELECTRICAL SUPPLY

WARNING This appliance must be earthed. Failure to do so may result in electric shock and death.

The oven must be installed by a qualified and approved electrician . This equipment is not suitable for connection to mains supply via a standard 13amp plug.

The installation wiring (hard wired or socket fitting) must be in accordance with current IEE regulations and safety standards. The electrical supply lead is located at the rear of the oven.

WARNING: A double isolating switch must be fitted. This must have a 3mm contact break on both poles.

If you are in any doubt about your electrical supply, seek the advice of a qualified and approved electrician.

It is essential that the electrical supply is properly installed and earthed. It should be fed from a cicuit which is suitablefor very high power electrical appliances and it is important that this circuit is not overloaded.

BLUE BROWN

Establishments with standard ( Type ‘B’ ) circuit breakers are sensitive to ‘surges’ which occur on switching on freezers, refridgerators and other catering equipment, including microwave ovens. Because of this , we strongly recommend that a separate Type ‘C’ circuit breaker ( designed specifically for this type of equipment ) is fitted to each oven installation.

If fitted with a plug type connection then the socket should be located in an easily accessible position.

GREEN &

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

PRECAUTIONS TO BE OBSERVED

1. Read this manual before using your oven.

2. As with all electrical appliances, it wise to have the electrical connections inspected periodically.

3. The oven interior, door seals should be cleaned frequently, following the instructions described in the CLEANING section.

4. There is no need to switch off your oven after each function but remember to switch off at the end of the day or period of operation.

5. Microwave energy should not be used to dry linen or warm plates.

6. As with any cooking appliance, care should be taken to avoid combustion of the items within the oven.

If smoke is observed:

 Switch off  Isolate from the electrical supply  Keep door the closed to stifle any flames

7. Ensure food is placed centrally in cavity for best results.

8. When using the microwave only function, cover the food to prevent splashing the walls of the cavity.

9. Food in combustible plastic or paper containers should only be used in microwave only function and checked frequently to avoid the possibility of ignition.

10. Items should be unwrapped when using convection and combination functions.

11. Eggs and whole hard-boiled eggs should not be heated using the microwave or combination function as they may explode.

12. Food with a skin, e.g. potatoes, apples, sausages etc. should be pierced before heating.

13. Food should not be heated in a completely sealed container as the build-up of steam may cause it to explode.

14. Excess fat should be removed during ‘roasting’ and before lifting heavy containers from the oven.

15. In the event of glass breaking or shattering within the oven, ensure that food is totally free of glass particles. If in doubt, dispose of any food that was in the oven at the time of the breakage.

INSTALLATION

Remove packing material and protective film from the oven.

Check for obvious signs of transit damage. If necessary, inform the supplier IMMEDIATELY.

LOCATION AND POSITIONING

Choose a site away from major heat sources. DO NOT position so that hot air is drawn in from fryers, grills, griddles, etc. A heat barrier to the height of the oven must be installed if sited next to a hob, stove or range.

Note: The air intake is located under each side of the oven, even with the clearance specified below it is important that airflow is as cool as possible and not pre-heated by other appliances such as fryers, grills and griddles as this will deteriorate the life and performance of the oven.

Note the minimum recommended clearance required for air flow

Place the oven on a flat surface that is LEVEL, STRONG and STABLE. Allow a minimum clearance of 50mm to the rear, top and each side to allow air to circulate freely. The air intake is located under each side of the oven, even with the clearance specified above it is important that airflow is as cool as possible and not pre heated by other appliances such as fryers, grills or griddles. Allow a minimum of 50mm clearance above the oven for hot air to escape. Allow sufficient clearance, 400mm in front of the oven for the door to open fully Do not affix labels/stickers to oven other than those applied by the manufacturer

Do not stack the oven directly on top of another. Use a separate shelf or double tiered stand.

WARNING:

Check that the AIR FILTERS are in place prior to operation ( see Main Features )

SUITABLE COOKING UTENSILS

Manufacturer’s instructions should be checked to determine the suitability of individual containers or utensils using each of the cooking functions.

The following chart provides general guidelines:

Heat resistant containers

Toughened glass Vitreous ceramics Earthenware

(porcelain, crockery, china etc.)

Metallic Trays

Metallic trays (on oven runners) DO NOT USE ANY OTHER METAL CONTAINERS

Plastic containers

Rigid, boilable, plastic containers

Disposables

No kitchen utensil should be left in food while it is cooking

THE USE OF METALLIC ITEMS IN COMBINATION AND MICROWAVE ONLY FUNCTIONS

Some of the interior panels in Mealstream 501 ovens are vitreous enamel which acts as an insulator and allows safe use of metal in controlled conditions.

(The vitreous enamel tray supplied can be upturned and used as a permanent base.)

Position large metal pans and trays centrally in the oven at least 40mm ( 1.5 inches ) from side walls.

Care must be taken to position

If metal containers are placed too close to each other or the sides of the oven, arcing may occur which

WARNING:

containers correctly.

may damage the oven.

Position individual metal containers evenly at least 1.5 inches (40mm) from each other and the side walls

Avoid using metal pans greater than 2.5 inches (65mm) in depth as this may reflect microwaves and alter the time required to heat the food thoroughly.

WARNING:

If a metallic, crackling sound is

heard during combination or

microwave only functions, open

the door to stop cooking and

reposition containers correctly.

If metal items (including silver

serving flats) become spot burned

due to arcing, discontinue their

use in the oven.

INTRODUCTION

The Mealstream 501 oven offers catering kitchens the flexibility of three heating functions; microwave only, convection only, and combination cooking.

Combination cooking enables high quality results to be achieved in a fraction of the time taken by conventional cooking, particularly when baking, browning, roasting, grilling or producing gratinee dishes.

Once established, precise instructions for combination or convection cooking of selected items may be programmed into the ovens memory so that they can be repeated easily and accurately.

Multi-Stage Programming

The Mealstream EC501 offers even greater flexibility by allowing multi-stage programming. This enables the exact conditions required for quality results to be set according to the food type.

A typical 3-stage program is shown. The Oven is pre-heated at 200°C. Stage 1 begins by applying a gentle microwave power of 25% (ideal for defrosting) while the convection temperature rises to 225°C. In Stage 2 the microwave power increases to maximum (100%) . In the final, browning stage the convection temperature is increased to 250°C with no microwave energy applied.

This is only one example of an infinite number of possible multi-stage programs that can be created and stored. Programs can have one, two, or three stages.

Note: Remember convection temperature takes time to change. Do not expect an instant response when a different temperature is activated. Care should be taken when de-frosting in a hot oven. Defrost first thing in the morning when the oven is still cold.

The instructions outlined in this guide are intended to

ensure the safety and long life of your Merrychef oven.

MAIN FEATURES

AIR OUTLETS

These vents on the side and rear panels enable air which has been used to cool internal components to escape. It will not allow microwave energy to escape into the environment. They must be kept free from obstruction.

OVEN CAVITY

The cavity is constructed mainly from stainless steel and vitreous enamelled panel on the door. It must be kept clean see CLEANING).

CONVECTION FAN

The fan draws air over the heating elements and into the cavity over the edges of the rear baffle plate, producing perfect heat distribution for combination cooking. The metal grill covering the fan must be kept clean and free of debris (See CLEANING)

AIR INLET FILTERS (LEFT & RIGHT)

Situated at the left and right hand side of the base at the front. These are part of the ventilation system and must be kept free of obstruction and cleaned on a daily basis.
