NOTICE
No attempt should be made to operate oven during a power failure.
A manual gas shutoff valve is located behind front lower panel for turning gas on and off.
Turning the EZ Com On and Off – The power switch at the top left corner of the control panel turns the unit
on and off. When the power switch is turned on, the EZ Com begins a diagnostic check and initiates the pilot
lighting sequence. If the diagnostic check or the lighting sequence fails, a code word will appear in the time
display and operation will be suspended. Otherwise the unit will begin operation in the startup default mode,
which is oven mode at 350°F. If the EZ Com does not start on the first attempt, shut-off all gas and
wait five minutes before attempting to start again.
Choosing Fan Speed – The EZ Com has a two-speed fan that is controlled by the fan-speed selector switch
at the upper right hand corner of the control panel.
Choosing the Cooking Mode
The buttons near the top of the control panel are used to select the cooking mode. The light above each
button will be lit when the corresponding cooking mode is selected.
Oven Mode is selected by pressing the OVEN button. In Oven Mode, the EZ Com acts exactly like a
convection oven. If when the OVEN button is pressed the oven is below the setpoint temperature, the
light above the button will flash until the setpoint temperature is reached.
Steam Mode is selected by pressing the STEAM button. In Steam Mode, the EZ Com acts exactly like a
pressureless countertop convection steamer. If when the STEAM button is pressed the oven is below
the setpoint temperature, the light above the button will flash until the setpoint temperature is reached.
In Steam Mode, the setpoint temperature is preset to 215°F, to allow pure, slightly superheated steam to
circulate within the cavity.
Combi Mode is selected by pressing the COMBI button. In Combi Mode, a high-moisture cooking
environment is created through carefully controlled humidification. If when the COMBI button is pressed
the oven is below the setpoint temperature, the light above the button will flash until the setpoint
temperature is reached.
Steam Inject Mode is the only mode that can used in conjunction with another cooking mode, namely the
Oven Mode. Pressing the STEAM INJECT button causes steam to be delivered to the cavity for as long
as the button is held. The intent is to provide the desired surface characteristics (crispy, shiny crust) on
bread products, and for any other products that would benefit from timely steam injections.
Cool Down Mode is designed to quickly cool the cavity from a high setpoint temperature to a low temperature
using a combination of high fan speed and a cooling spray of water
Setting Cooking Temperature – The cooking temperature can be set in Oven Mode and Combi Mode (but
not in Steam Mode) by turning the TEMP knob to a temperature (displayed beside the knob) in the range
145°F to 500°F. (In Steam Mode, the operating temperature is preset to 215°F to allow pure, slightly
superheated steam to circulate within the cavity.)
Setting Timer – The timer can be set by turning the time knob to the desired setting and pressing the
START/INTERRUPT button. When the timer times out, an alarm sounds. However, the oven continues to
run in the mode and at the temperature that were in effect when the time expired. To silence the alarm,
press the START/INTERRUPT button again. Pressing the CANCEL button will reset the timer to zero.
