WARNINGS AND INSTALLATION
INSTRUCTIONS

As is the case with most cooking equipment, your
CVap oven should be used with caution. Please read
the following warnings to avoid potential injuries.

!

WARNING: Burn Hazard

Can cause serious injury >> Avoid heated vapor when opening

or closing cabinet door.

This equipment utilizes heated water vapor, which
transfers heat much more quickly and efficiently than dry
air of the same temperature. Use caution when opening
doors or reaching into the equipment, as heated vapor
can quickly cause burns.

!

WARNING: Contamination

Hazard

Can cause serious illness or damage to equipment >>

Clean equipment daily to avoid potential contamination hazard.

Clean equipment daily to prevent buildup of food
residue or chlorides, which can also damage stainless
steel and contaminate food. Failure to follow proper
cleaning procedures can void your warranty.

WARNING: Safety Hazard,

Intended Use

Can cause serious injury or damage to equipment >>
Supervise untrained, young, or handicapped persons.

1. This equipment is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory,
or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or
instruction concerning use of the equipment by a person

responsible for their safety.

2. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do
not play with the equipment.

3. This equipment is intended to be used for commercial
applications, for example in kitchens of restaurants,
canteens, hospitals and in commercial enterprises such
as bakeries, butcheries, etc., but not for continuous mass
production of food.

COOK & HOLD OVEN

Equipment with automatic water fill systems are to
be installed with adequate backflow protection to
comply with federal, state, and local codes.

As water evaporates, any minerals in the water will
deposit on the surface of the evaporator. These mineral
deposits will inhibit the transfer of heat. Deposits can
also degrade and damage stainless steel. The best way
to avoid mineral deposits is to clean the equipment
daily. It is also advisable to contact your water utility for
advice on minimizing deposit buildup.

For locations with hard water, add one tablespoon
(15ml) of white vinegar or lemon juice to water to help
minimize scale buildup. Please consider contacting your
local water authority to obtain advice on possible water
treatment to protect the appliance. Some water supplies
are high enough in chemical content to be capable of
damaging stainless steel (if used untreated). The
evaporation process can concentrate the chemicals in
the water to a level which could cause a damaging
reaction with the stainless steel.

!

CAUTION: High Temperature &

Grease Hazard Can cause damage to equipment

>> Avoid placing equipment near high heat or in grease-laden

atmosphere.

Do not place equipment in areas where air temperature
exceeds 100˚F (38˚C). A heat shield may be required to
prevent heat exposure and grease-laden vapors from
affecting the equipment if near heat, vapor, or grease
generating devices (such as grills, steamers, ovens, etc.).
Excess heat and grease inside the equipment cavities
may cause electrical components to fail.

WATER FILL PROCEDURE

Water Supply

In order to operate properly, the evaporator in this oven
must be filled with clean, potable water. Hardware is
included to connect the oven to a copper line in your
facility’s water system. If your facility has plastic or
galvanized pipes, contact a licensed plumber to connect
the water supply. Equipment should be installed to
comply with applicable federal, state, or local plumbing
codes.

INSTALLING AUTO WATER FILL

Insert tubing and push fully into the connector.
(Reference drawing on this page.) Once seated, try to pull
the tubing out of the connector so that the capture ring
comes out (about 1/16” (1.6mm)) and the tubing cannot
be removed.

Prior to connecting a newly installed water line to the
auto water fill connection, it is extremely important
to flush the water line of any debris. Debris in the
water line will cause damage to the water solenoid
and would not be covered under warranty.

PUSH
HERE

The maximum incoming water temperature may not
exceed 140˚F (60˚C) and the incoming water pressure
must be between 20 and 150 psi (1.4 Kgf/cm2 to 10.5
Kgf/cm2 (kilogram-force per sq. centimeter)).

COOK & HOLD OVEN

HOW IS THE CVAP COOK & HOLD
OVEN DIFFERENT?

The Winston CVap® Cook & Hold oven gives you more
control over food quality than other ovens or combis. It
allows you to determine whether cooking time or final
yield is more important, and doesn’t force you to sacrifice
quality for either. The following is a brief description of
this unit’s unique features.

High Yield Cycle

The High Yield Cycle gives you the maximum possible
yield from your foods. Once you have programmed the
desired final temperature and degree of browning, the
microprocessor automatically determines the best heat
curve to achieve the highest yield possible.

Constant Cook & Hold Cycle

The Constant Cook & Hold Cycle allows you to manually
override the High Yield cook cycle while automatically
predetermining optimal holding temperatures.

MICROPROCESSOR CONTROLLED
PROCESSES

Cook Cycle

The CVap Cook & Hold oven utilizes a dual heat system to
cook foods to precise doneness, while maintaining high
yield. After doneness temperature, degree of browning,
and cook time are chosen and START/STOP is pressed,
the microprocessor takes over control of the two heat
input systems until the end of the serving period.

!

WARNING: Contamination Hazard

Can cause serious illness >> Clean equipment prior to rst use to

remove traces of industrial chemicals and oils.

Prior to using equipment for the first time, perform the
daily cleaning procedure listed on pages 12 and 13.

COOKING INSTRUCTIONS - HIGH YIELD

Preliminary Set-up

1. Adjust shelving appropriate for product being
cooked. Make sure you have at least 2" (51mm) space
between top of food product and shelf above.

2. Fill unit evaporator with 2.5 to 3 gallons (9.5 to 11.8L)
of water. Note: the oven will preheat faster if hot
water is used. Don't use water that is hotter than the
desired doneness temperature.

3. Flip Power Switch to ON position. The display flashes
Prht (preheat), indicating that the unit is warming
up to current temperature setting.

4. To program DONENESS temperature, press

DONENESS buttons to set desired
temperature. Temperature range is
90˚ to 200˚F (32˚ to 93˚C).

Hold Cycle

The cooking process is followed by a timed cycle to meet
the requirements of FDA regulations pertaining to food
safety in the 120˚ to 157˚F (49˚ to 69˚C) range. If
doneness temperature is set at 130˚F (54˚C), the
minimum hold time is 121 minutes; 135˚F (57˚C), 37
minutes; 140˚F (60˚C), 12 minutes; 150˚F (66˚C), two
minutes; 151˚ to 157˚F (66˚ to 69˚C), one minute. If
doneness temperature is set at 158˚F (70˚C) or higher,
there is no FDA requirement for holding time. This data is
programmed in the microprocessor and requires no
action by the operator.

Sell Cycle

The microprocessor automatically chooses the right dual
heat combination to hold foods without quality loss for
hours while serving. The automatic hold feature requires

no action from the operator, freeing up labor.

COOK & HOLD COOKING GUIDELINES

When roasting meats or other large proteins, begin with
a browning level of 5. This will produce moderate
browning or texture. If less browning or texture is
desired, select a browning level of 2-4. If more browning
or texture is desired, select a browning level of 6-10.

High Yield Cook: Gives you the maximum possible yield

for your foods. Once you have programmed the desired
doneness temperature and browning level, the
microprocessor automatically determines the best heat
curve to give the highest yield possible.

Constant Cook: Allows the manual override of High Yield

Cook Cycle, while automatically determining optimal
holding temperatures for personalized cooking and
holding.

ON: High Yield Cook Cycle is not functional. Constant

cook light will illuminate to indicate that the Constant
Cook Cycle has been activated.

OFF: High Yield Cook Cycle is functional.

Slow Roasting/Roasting: Cooking food in an uncovered

pan, a method that will produce a browned or textured
exterior while maintaining a moist, juicy interior. This
roasting process can be utilized for either tender or
tough pieces of meat. The moist environment within the

®

Cook & Hold Oven will tenderize cuts that are

CVap
usually associated with braising.

Braise: Cooking in a small amount of liquid. The amount

of liquid involved can vary. Some recipes call for foods to
be half-immersed in liquid. Other recipes call for very
little liquid. Braising can be a rapid process by which

foods are gently simmered (short braising), just until
they're cooked through. Braising can also involve long,
slow cooking (long braising). Foods may be browned
before adding the liquid.

When braising, bring liquid to a simmer on stove top
before placing into Cook & Hold Oven. This will help
expedite the cooking cycle by one to two hours. Pans do
not need to be foil-covered when cooking. Four-inch
(102mm) braising pans are recommended. Once braising
cycle is complete, product will be held at 150˚F (66˚C)
during recommended hold cycle.

Confit: Food product is salted and slowly cooked in its

own fat or any other type of fat, such as oil. Bring fat or
oil to a simmer on stove top before placing into oven.
Four-inch (102mm) braising pans are recommended.
Once confit cycle is complete, product will be held at
150˚F (66˚C) during recommended hold cycle.

Poach: Food is gently cooked, completely submerged, in

slightly simmering liquid just below boiling point.

Steam: Food is cooked gently in moist CVap

environment, with temperature range of 200˚ - 230˚F (93˚

- 110˚C).

Thermalizing: Rapidly elevating food product

temperature from thawed or frozen state to minimum
temperature of 165˚F (74˚C).

Baking: When utilizing a CVap Cook & Hold Oven to bake

items that normally require water during baking process,
water baths are not needed. Place pans or ramekins
directly on sheet pans or oven racks.
