VENTILATION
NOTICE
Proper ventilation is the owner’s responsibility. Any problem due to improper ventilation will not be
covered by the warranty.
The Southbend warranty does not require that a Wendy’s Electric Range be installed under a ventilation
canopy. However, local codes may require installation under a ventilation canopy.
If a ventilation canopy is used, it is recommended that a canopy extend 6" (152mm) past the appliance and
that the bottom edge be located 6'6" (1981mm) from the floor. Filters should be installed at an angle of 45°
or more from the horizontal. This position prevents dripping grease and facilitates collecting the run-off
grease in a drip pan, unusually installed with a filter.
If an exhaust fan is used, it should be installed at least 2" (51mm) above the rear of the unit. A strong
exhaust fan tends to create a vacuum in the room. In case of unsatisfactory performance on any
appliance, check the appliance with the exhaust fan in the OFF position. This should be done only long
enough to check equipm ent performance. T hen turn the exhaust fan back on and let it run to remove any
exhaust that may have accumulated during the test.

GRIDDLE OPERATING HINTS AND SAFETY TIPS
Never leave the griddle operating without an attendant.
Never place utensils on the griddle.
Do not abuse the equipm ent by leaving the thermostats at a high t emperature all the time. During idlin g
periods, turn the t hermostat to a low temperature to keep the griddle warm. (Do not allow the griddle to
overheat above 850°F (454°C) as this will cause warping or breakage.)
Do not operate the entire griddle at a high temperature when small amounts of food are being
heated/cooked, or during idle periods. Set the Temperature Co ntrol Knob(s) to 200º F (93º C) during idle
periods. Only a few minutes is required to regain the desired operating temperature when food orders
become more frequent. Use only one zone when heating/cooking a small amount of food.
Heat/cook different types of foods at the same time by setting the Temperature Control Knob of each
griddle zone to the temperature for heating/cooking each food type.
“Hold” (keep warm), food in one zone by decreasing the temperature setting.
Use a spatula to remove excess grease or oil into the grease trough after each load of food is
heated/cooked. This reduces the smoking and carbonizing of hot grease.
Pull out and empty the grease drawers when necessary.
When done cooking, turn the appropriate control knob to OFF.

WENDY’S ELECTRIC RANGECOOKING HINTS
COOKING HINTS
COOKING HINTS(OVEN)
A convection oven is a different type of oven that offers many features and advantages to food service
operation. The additional capabilities and features of the oven require some learning. However, the
operation of the oven is not difficult to understand or control once you have some practice.
Convection ovens operate much like a standard oven: you turn the oven ON and select a cooking
temperature. An additional control is used to operate the fan (as described on page 19).
In a standard (non-c onvection) oven, the air is relat ively still and an insulating la yer of moistur e surrounds
the cooking food product. In a convection oven, the fan-blown circulating air strips away this insulating layer
allowing the heat to penetrate f aster for q uicker bak ing and roasting. Hence, in a convecti on oven cook ing
procedures and tech niques may require some modific ation for successful results. As a general rule, the
cooking time will be shorter and the cooking temperature will be 25°F to 75°F (14°C to 42 °C) lower than
those called for in recipes for a standard oven.
TIME & TEMPERATURE
Time and temperature ar e important. The best c ooking time and tem perature will depen d on such factor s
as size of load and mixtur e of recipe (par ticularl y moistur e). Onc e an appropr iate tim e and tem perature has
been established for a particular product and load, you will find the result of succeeding loads to be similar.
OVERLOADING
Do NOT overload the oven . The size of the load that can be cook ed satisfactorily depends largely on the
particular product. As a rul e, four racks can be successf ully used for shallo w cakes, cook ies, pies, etc. For
deeper cakes (s uch as angel food), use only three racks because of the size of the pan and the space
required for rising. For ha mburger patties, fis h sticks, cheese sandwic hes, etc., a full com plement of racks
and pans is usually satisfactory.
HELPFUL SUGGESTIONS
Here are some suggestions that will assist in getting the best possible performance from a convection
oven:
• Pre-heat the oven thoroughly before use.
• When re-thermali zing frozen products, pre-heat the o ven to 50°F (28°C) higher than the planned
cooking temperature. After loading, reduce the temperature setting to the appropriate cooking
temperature.
• Space the racks and pans as evenly as possible to allow air circulation.
• Center the load on th e racks to allow f or proper air ci rculation around the s ides. Do not cover the
racks completely with pans.
•Do not use a deep pan for shallow cak es or cookies, etc. A ir circulation acros s the surface of the
product is essential.
WARNING
THE USE OF ALUMINUM FOIL CAN CAUSE HEAT DISTRIBUTION PROBLEMS IN OVENS.
EXTREME CARE MUST BE USED WHEN PL ACING AL UMINUM FOIL IN THE OVEN TO ENSURE
THAT IT DOES NOT BLOCK OR CHANG E THE AIR FLOW . THE USE OF ALUMINU M FOIL MAY
VOID THE PRODUCT WARRANTY IF ITS USE IS ASCERTAINED TO BE A PROBLEM.

CLEANING
Southbend equipment is sturdily constructed of the best materials and is designed to provide durable
service when treated with ordinary care. To expect the best performance, your equipment must be
maintained in good condit ion and clea ned dai ly. Natura ll y, the periods f or this c are and clean ing depend on
the amount and degree of usage.
Following daily and p eriodic maintenance procedures will e nhance long life for your equipm ent. Climatic
conditions (such as s alt air) ma y require more thorou gh and frequent c leaning or the life of the equ ipment
could be adversely affected .
The oven interior is finished with a porcelain enamel coating. “Spillovers” should be cleaned from the
interior bottom surfac e as soon as p ossibl e to pr event car bonizing and a burnt -on cond ition. Grease or a n y
residue should be cleaned from interior surfaces as soon as it accumulates.
WARNING
FOR YOUR SAFETY, DISCONNECT THE POWER SUPPLY TO THE APPLIANCE BEFORE
CLEANING.
WHEN CLEANING THE BLOWER WHEEL, BE SURE TO HAVE THE POWER SWITCH IN THE
“OFF” POSITION.
WARNING
NEVER TOUCH AN OPERATING GRIDDLE. ALWAYS WAIT UNTIL THE TEMPERATURE
CONTROL KNOBS HAVE BEEN SET TO “OFF” FOR AT LEAST 30 MINUTES.
Clean Areas of Griddle that were used to Cook Food
1. Clean the griddle surface by pushing the greas e and/o r oil into the gr ease tr ough. T hen rub the s urfac e
with a pumice stone or a “griddle stone.” Rub the griddle surface in the direction of the metal grain
while the surface is still warm (NOT hot).
2. Wipe the griddle surface clean of residue from the rubbing stone, using clean cloths.
3. Thoroughly clean the grease troug h, grease c hutes, a nd grease dr awers at l east onc e each da y (more
often if necessary).
4. Allow the griddle to cool. Clean the sides of the griddle and all surfaces surrounding the griddle by
wiping them with a clean cloth dampened in warm water and a mild detergent.
5. Rinse all washed surfaces using a clean clot h dam pened with warm clean water . W ipe dr y with a clean
cloth.
6. Empty each grease drawer as often as necess ary, at least once per shift, and at the en d of each day.
Wash the grease drawers with hot water and a mild detergent. Rinse with clean hot water. Wipe dry.
7. Be sure to replace the grease drawers after each cleaning.
Clean Areas of Griddle that were used to h eat Pots and Cooking Vessels
Areas that have been use d for heating pots or o ther cooking vessels should be cleaned and “seasoned”
prior to cooking/heating any type of food product in that area of the griddle.
8. Allow the griddle section to cool. W ash the entire divided ( 23"×24" or 13"×24") section of the griddle
with warm water and a mild deterg ent. Also, clean all areas near that s ection of the griddle. DO NOT
USE COLD WATER.

12. Turn the POWER switch to OFF and allow the oven to cool.
13. Remove the oven-interior rac ks and r ack slide fr am es. (T he rack slide fr am es are readil y rem ovable by
merely raising to disengag e them from their sockets.) W ash the racks and rack slides i n a sink with
mild detergent and warm water. Dry them thoroughly with a clean cloth.
14. Look to see if any foreign matter has accumulated o n the blades of the blower wheel (which wil l re duc e
air circulation). If nec essar y, rem ove the re ar lini ng of t he o ven, wh ich is sec ured b y thumbs crews near
each corner. Use a stiff brush to remove accumulations f rom the blower blades, then wash w ith soap
and water.
15. Wash the interior surfaces with mild detergent and warm water. Rinse with clean water, and dry
thoroughly with a clean cloth. For stubborn accumulations, a commercial oven cleaner may be used.
16. Clean the control panel with warm water and mild soap. Never use cleaning solvents with a
hydrocarbon base.
17. Wipe the other exterior surfaces with a c l ean damp cloth. If the exter i or s urfaces require more thorough
cleaning, see “Cleaning Stainless Steel Surfaces” below.
18. Reinstall the rear baffle (if removed), and return the side rack guides and oven racks to their
appropriate locations inside the oven.
19. LEAVE THE DOOR OPEN AT NIGHT AFTER CLEANING. This allows the oven to dr y thorou ghl y after
cleaning and also prolongs the life of the door gasket.
MONTHLY CLEANING
Clean around rear of motor (where the vent screen is located), louvered panels, and primary air holes in
the rear of the oven where grease or lint may have accumulated.
SEMI-ANNUAL CLEANING
At least twice a year have your Southbend Authorized Service Agency or another qualified service
technician clean and adjust the unit for maximum performance.
At least twice a year the oven’s venting system should be examined and cleaned.
CLEANING STAINLESS STEEL SURFACES
To remove normal dirt, gre ase and produc t residue f rom stainless s teel that ope rates at LOW temperatur e,
use ordinary soap a nd wat er (with or without deter gent) app lied with a s pon ge or cloth. Dr y thorough ly with
a clean cloth.
To remove grease and food splatter, or condensed vapors, that have BAKED on the equipment, apply
cleanser to a damp cloth o r sponge and rub cleans er on the met al in the directio n of the polishing lin es on
the metal. Rubbing cleans er, as gently as possible, in the direction of the pol ished lines will not mar the
finish of the stainless steel. NEVER RUB WITH A CIRCULAR MOTION. Soil and burnt depos its which do
not respond to the above p rocedure can usuall y be removed by rubbing the s urface with SCOT CH-BRITE
scouring pads or ST AINLESS scouring p ads. DO NOT USE ORD INARY STEEL W OOL, as any particles
left on the surface will rust and further spoil the appearance of the finish. NEVER USE A W IRE BRUSH,
STEEL SCOURING PADS (EXCEPT STAINLESS), SCRAPER, FILE OR OTHER STEEL TOOLS.
Surfaces which are marred collect dirt more rapidly and become more difficult to clean. Marring also
increases the possibility of corrosive attack. Refinishing may then be required.

To remove heat tint – Darkened areas som etimes appear on sta inless stee l surfaces where th e area has
been subjected to excessive heat. These darkened areas are caused by thickening of the protective
surface of the stainless s teel and are not harm ful. Heat tint can norm ally be removed b y the foregoing, but
tint which does not respond to this procedure calls for a vigorous scouring in the direction of the polish
lines, using SCOTC H-BRITE scouri ng pads or a STAINLESS scourin g pad in combination with a po wered

CAREOFGRIDDLE
A griddle should be caref ully cared for in ord er to avoid poss ible damage. The griddle must be “ seasoned”
before operation (see “SEASONING OF GRIDDLE SURFACE” on page 20). Use a pumice stone or a
“griddle stone” to clea n the griddle. Do not use any type of s teel wool. Small particles ma y be left on the
surface and get into food products. Do not clean spatula by hitting the edge on the griddle plate. Such
action will only cut and pit the griddle plate, leaving it rough and hard to clean.

CALIBRATION/OBSERVATION OF ELECTRIC GRIDDLE THERMOSTATS
Each 12" (305mm) section of the griddle is controlled by a snap-action thermostatic control. If griddle
temperatures vary from the set point on the corresponding front-panel control, then calibration may be
needed. Use the following procedure to calibrate the griddle thermostats.
NOTICE
The following starting conditions must be followed in order to ensure proper calibration.
1. The griddle surface must be scraped clean. No product should be present on the griddle during
calibration.
2. Set all thermostats to 300°F (149°C) and allow them to cycle three to four times and allow the griddle to
preheat for 1 hour before proceeding.
3. Using a surface type thermom eter placed at each Point “A” (as sho wn in the f ollo wing diagram ), c heck

from 1-phas e to 3-phase power, use the longer of the t wo extra wires foun d in the previous ste p to
make the additional connection (L2) shown in the above drawing. (Again, if you are changing the
phase-wiring of a 380/415V ov en, refer to the correspondin g wiring diagram for conversio n. See page
40.)
7. Rewire the connections to the elements (located o n the back of the oven) according to the diagram on
this page. I f convert ing from 3-phase to 1-ph ase, use the wire that you saved in Step 2 to mak e one of
the connections. (Onc e more, if you are changing th e phase-wiring of a 380/415V oven, refer to t he
corresponding wiring diagram for conversion. See page 40.)
8. Carefully compare the new wiring connections at the elements, contactor, and supply-power terminal block to the wiring diagram for the oven. (A wiring diagr am is located on the side of the
control panel assembly, see page 37; or see the appropriate wiring diagram printed in this manual,
beginning on page 38). Verify that all connections are tight.
9. Reattach the right-side insulation, right-side panel, and lower-front panel.
10. Connect the oven to the power supply. Note that the supply-power connections depend on
whether the supply power is 3-phase or 1 phase, and so will be different than they were prior to
the conversion.
11. Double-check supply-wire sizing for new amperage load (see page 5).

NOTICE
Warranty will be void and the m anufacturer is relieved of all liabilit y if service work is performed b y
other than a qualified technician, or if other than genuine Southbend replacement parts are installed.
When any difficult y arises it is always a good idea to check that the oven has b ee n c onnec te d to th e t ype of
voltage for which it was manufac tured. The range-top ser ial plate is located on the interior side of the top
front panel, while the oven-base serial plate is located on the interior side of the lower front panel, as
shown on page 3. The serial plate will list the type of voltage for which the unit was manufactured. In
addition, a wiring diagram for the oven base is attached to the side of the oven-base slide-out control panel,
while a wiring diagram for the range top is located on the interior side of the rear access panel. Wiring
diagrams are also reproduced in this manual (beginning on page 38).
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
The left column of the following table lists symptoms that indicate a problem, while the center and right
columns list the possible c auses and appropriate cor rective action. Note that the recommendations of this
table assume that the wiring connec tions are good . When check ing a component , always chec k the wiring
attached to the component as well.
Symptom Possible Cause Check or Replace
Oven will not operate,
but range top will.
Oven will not hold
correct temperature.
Temperature control not calling for heat.
Inadequate or improper ventilation. Check ventilation hood. Verify draw and make up air adjustment.
Out of calibration. Calibrate according to procedure described on page 32.
Bad contactor. Verify that contactor is pulling in and supplying power to the elements.
Blower motor will not
come on.
Loose wire connections. Check wire connections.
Motor bad. If power is being supplied but motor will not turn, replace motor.
Shut down switch bad.
POWER switch bad.
FAN MODE switch bad. Check FAN MODE switch.
Blown oven fuses. Check oven fuses located on oven-base control panel (see page 21).
Temperature probe not working.
No incoming electric power. Check incoming power and fuses.
Resistance across temperature probe leads at room temperature (70°F,
21°C) should be approximately 1096 ohms.
When heat is required, there should be continuity between terminals 6
and 7 on temperature control.
All power except for element supply comes through the shut down
switch. Check for continuity.
All power except for element supply comes through the POWER switch.
Check for continuity.
