4. INITIAL START UP
After the electrical connections have been made, the oven will need approximately 2 to 3 hours to
burn off. Initial heating of the oven may generate smoke or fumes and must be done in a well
ventilated area.
CAUTION: OVEREXPOSURE TO SMOKE OR FUMES MAY CAUSE NAUSEA AND DIZZINESS.
For initial heating of the new oven, follow the steps below:
!
Place the oven in a well ventilated area.
!
Open the oven doors and remove any instructions or samples shipped within the unit. Make
sure the oven cavity is empty and the baking decks are properly installed.
!
With the oven doors open, turn the temperature knobs to 400° F (205° C) for one hour.
!
Close the oven door. Increase the temperature to 500° F (260° C) for at least 1 ½ hours.
This procedure will dry out the insulation and deck material and will help to insure optimum baking
results thereafter.

These ovens have been designed to bake both fresh and frozen products. Frozen fruit pies should
be taken directly from the freezer and placed into the oven. Cooking time will vary with the size of the
pie, but under normal conditions a frozen pie should bake approximately in the same time as a fresh
pie.
