CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE Continued

Motor Care

The motor on your convection oven is maintenance free since it is constructed with self-lubricating sealed ball bearings. It is designed to provide durable service when treated with ordinary care. We have a few suggestions to follow on the care of your motor. When the motor is operating, it cools itself internally by air entering at the rear of the motor case, provided proper clearance has been allowed.

Since the blower wheel is in the oven cavity it is at the same temperature as the oven. If the motor is stopped while the oven is hot, the heat from the blower wheel is conducted down the shaft and into the armature of the motor. This action could shorten the life of the motor.

We recommend, at the end of the bake or roasting period, when the oven will be idle for any period of time, or before shutting down completely, that the doors be left open slightly. On the  series controllers press the COOL DOWN key on the control panel. The fan will continue to run until the oven cools down to °F (°C).

At the end of the day, press the ON/OFF key, for the  series controllers to activate the Auto Cool Down feature. The fan will run on high until the oven cavity drops below °F (°C). When the oven temperature drops below °F (°C) the oven turns off. This feature protects the oven motor from pre-mature failure. On the  series controllers, push the rocker switch to COOL position. Once cool set the rocker switch to OFF.

NOTE: Optimal cool-down will be achieved with the door open slightly.
