THEORY OF OPERATION

The TurboChef NGC (Tornado) oven utilizes three independent heat transfer mechanisms to rapidly cook food.

The systems are as follows:

†Convection

†Infrared energy

†Microwave energy

By combining these mechanisms along with the ability to control each mechanism independently, the NGC (Tornado) oven is able to reduce the cook time of most foods by 70-90 percent.

Figure 5 below represents the oven’s different sys- tems and the critical components of each system.

Should a problem arise with any of the compo- nents listed below, please turn to the appropriate section within this manual for further instructions.

For the purpose of this manual, each independent heat transfer mechanism is individually identified. For instance, if an oven is experiencing difficulties browning the food, focus on CONVECTION SYSTEM

and/or BOTTOM IR AND CCV. Focus on MICROWAVE

SYSTEM if the oven is browning the food but not heating the inside.

Part numbers are included on illustrations (where applicable) and in the back of this manual. If an item is not illustrated, the part number is provided in the text.
