Installation, Operation and Care of

VULCAN MODEL VFB12 FLASHBAKE® OVEN

KEEP THIS MANUAL FOR FUTURE REFERENCE

GENERAL

Your Vulcan FlashBake oven is a versatile oven that employs a revolutionary high quality, high-speed cooking technology. The baking process is so fast that food retains its natural juices. Bread products brown and become crisp while vegetables retain their color and texture.

FlashBake ovens use visible and infrared light energy to cook by radiative heat transfer. The infrared energy browns the surface of the food, while the visible light energy penetrates and heats it internally. Using the proper combination of visible and infrared light energy, the FlashBake oven provides efficient, high-speed baking and high quality food.

The VFB12 FlashBake oven may be ordered with a 6-foot (1829 mm) power cord for receptacle installation, or for direct line electrical connection, single phase or 3-phase.

These ovens MUST NOT be stacked one on top of another.

INSTALLATION

Before installing, verify that the electrical service agrees with the specifications on the rating plate located on the rear of the oven. If the supply and specifications do not agree, do not proceed with the installation. Contact your dealer or Vulcan Company immediately.
