Installation, Operation and Care of

MODEL VCH SERIES COOK AND HOLD OVENS

PLEASE KEEP THIS MANUAL FOR FUTURE USE

GENERAL

Vulcan-Hart Cook and Hold Ovens are produced with quality workmanship and material. Proper installation, usage, and maintenance of your oven will result in many years of satisfactory performance.

It is suggested that you thoroughly read this entire manual and carefully follow all of the instructions provided.

VCH Cook and Hold Ovens slow cook and roast meats, seafood, poultry, and vegetables at low temperature. This minimizes food shrinkage and foods retain more of their natural flavor and moisture. In addition to roasting meats, maximum roasting temperatures of 350°F (177°C) enables the oven to bake bread products.

After slow cooking, the oven automatically switches to a lower temperature suitable for holding food without further cooking.

Each oven accommodates both standard size sheet trays or standard size 12x20x2 (305x508x64 mm) pans.

INSTALLATION

Before installing, verify that the electrical service agrees with the specifications on the rating plate located on the lower rear left corner. If the supply and equipment requirements do not agree, do not proceed with the installation. Contact your dealer or Hobart Food Equipment Group Canada immediately.

UNPACKING

This oven was inspected before leaving the factory. The transportation company assumes full responsibility for safe delivery upon acceptance of the shipment. Immediately after unpacking, check for possible shipping damage to the oven. If the oven is found to be damaged, save the packaging material and contact the carrier within 7 days of delivery.

1. Remove cardboard carton and plastic bag covering the carton.

2. Carefully lift cabinet off carton bottom and place it on the floor.

• Allow a minimum of 36" (914 mm) at the front of the oven.
