CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Catalytic Converter
The oven utilizes a catalytic converter system that
filters the cooking cavity air reducing grease and odors
from the room. This catalyst contains a microscopic
layer of a specific compound that reduces the ignition
temperature of grease. When the cavity air is moved
through the catalyst, the grease laden air is reduced to
CO2 and H2O. The catalyst is maintenance free and
will continue to operate without issue through the life
of the oven. However, proper care is required when
choosing the chemicals used to clean the cavity in order
to ensure longevity.
The catalyst is sensitive to particular compounds
found in common degreaser and industrial cleaners.
Potassium salts, phosphates, silicates, and other caustic
compounds can cause irreversible damage. This
damage can result in reduced catalyst performance
causing grease, smoke and odors to be in the room.
Bakers Pride provides an approved cleaner for purchase
and recommends any alternatives be checked to
determine their chemical content so not to cause
damage.
Damage caused by unapproved cleaners may void the
manufacturers warranty.
The catalyst is located inside the unit and does not need
to be removed for cleaning.
Conveyor Section
It’s recommended that two people handle the assembly
during removal, cleaning, and installation. Remove the
door and slide the conveyor section forward. Take the
conveyor section to a sink and thoroughly clean with
warm water and a mild detergent or soap. Use a nylon
scouring pad or stiff nylon brush. The area around
the chain cover must be thoroughly cleaned. Do not
immerse the conveyor section in water.
Do not use steel wool.
Jetplates And Air Returns
Open the door and remove the jet plates and air returns
by pulling the jetplate forward. Take the panel to the
sink and thoroughly clean in warm water with mild
detergent or soap. Use a nylon scouring pad or stiff
nylon brush.
Do not use steel wool.
Oven Cavity
With the door open and the jet plates and air returns
removed, wipe out inside of the oven with a clean,
damp cloth. Use a nylon scouring pad dampened
with approved cleaning chemical or stiff nylon brush
to remove any baked on debris. Use a clean towel
dampened with clean water to thoroughly wipe out
inside to remove any cleaner residue and food particles.
Do not use steel wool.
Unit is not waterproof. To avoid electrical shock
or personal injury, DO NOT submerge in water. DO
NOT operate if it has been submerged in water.
DO NOT clean the unit with a water jet. DO NOT
steam clean or use excessive water on the unit.
WARNING
Keep cleaning fluids away from electrical wires,
light sockets, switches, and the control panel.
WARNING
Use mild detergent or soap solution for best
results. Abrasive cleaners could scratch the finish
of your unit, marring its appearance and making
it susceptible to dirt accumulation. DO NOT use
abrasive cleaners or a cleaner/sanitizer containing
chlorine, iodine, ammonia or bromine chemicals
as these will deteriorate the stainless steel and
glass material and shorten the life of the unit. Use
nylon scouring pads. Do not use steel wool.
