This manual provides instructions for the Avantco 177CO32M Countertop Convection Oven. Key operational requirements include proper electrical connection (208/240V, 60Hz, 6-20P plug), water connection for steam injection (3/4" inlet, 20-25psi), and maintaining 12" of clearance from surrounding walls.


Installation
The oven must be placed on a flat, level surface. Ensure 12" (30.4 cm) of clearance between the unit and any surrounding walls. The unit requires a 208/240V, 60Hz power supply using a 6-20P NEMA plug. For the steam injection feature, connect the 3/4" water inlet to a water source with 20-25psi pressure. A water filtration system is recommended.

Before first use
Wash the handle and roasting racks with soapy water (do not use abrasive agents). Wipe the interior walls with a damp cloth. Perform a burn-in process by closing the door, setting the temperature to maximum, and running the timer for 30 minutes. A slight odor is normal during this process.
Operation
To operate, set the temperature dial and the timer dial. The power and heating indicator lights will illuminate when the unit is heating. To use the steam injection feature, ensure the oven temperature is above 400°F and press the steam button for a maximum of 3 seconds at a time.
Cleaning and maintenance
Always unplug the unit and allow it to cool before cleaning. Use a damp cloth or sponge to wipe the interior. Do not soak the inside of the oven or wash it under running water to avoid damage.
Troubleshooting
If the unit stops working or makes a loud pop, the safety reset switch may have tripped. This switch is located on the back of the oven, covered by a black plastic screw cap. Remove the cap and press the switch to reset.
