® L O C AT I O N S I T E & I N S TA L L AT I O N R E Q U I R E M E N T S COMBITHERM VENTILATION REQUIREMENTS A steam ventilation hood is mandatory for the operation of the oven. The ventilation hood must be installed in accordance with local building codes for the steam exhaust and must protrude 12-inches to 20-inches (300 to 500mm) over the front side of the oven. A grease filter must be located in the protruding area of the hood.
L O C AT I O N S I T E & I N S TA L L AT I O N R E Q U I R E M E N T S ® COMBITHERM POSITIONING REQUIREMENTS ❑ In order to ensure proper ventilation, a minimum distance of at least 6-inches (152mm) must be kept from the control panels side (left) of the oven and any adjoining surfaces. NOTE: Additional clearance is needed for service access. A minimum distance of 18-inches is strongly recommended.

ERROR CODES ® COMBITHERM ERROR CODES AND REASONS (continued) Error Code E13 Display Shows Excess Steam Gen Temp When does the error occur? ES units only: Activated if the temperature of the steam generator probe (B-4) is higher than 248°F for 26 seconds. Possible reason • Problem with water level probe. • Scale build-up inside steam generator. • Steam element contactor is stuck. • Connection issue with B-4 probe. • Faulty B-4 probe. ESi units only: • Jumper on X-3 is improperly positioned.
ERROR CODES ® COMBITHERM ERROR CODES AND REASONS (continued) Error Code E29 Display Shows Probe Short to Frame E34 DE (Drain) Pump Failure When does the error occur? Activated if one or more of the temperature sensors were connected to GND for 5 seconds. Possible reason • Connection issue at any of the temperature sensors. • Temperature sensor shorted to ground/faulty. Activated if water level did not drop below the • Problem with water level probe.
ERROR CODES ® COMBITHERM E M E R G E N C Y O P E R AT I O N In the event of an error code, the Combitherm may be operated on a limited basis. Error conditions under which continued operation can be conducted are indicated by “Yes” in the chart shown below. When the oven malfunctions, an error code will appear in the display. PRESS THE START KEY TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE ERROR. The keys that begin to flash represent operational modes that are still usable. SELECT AND PRESS ONE OF THE COOKING MODES INDICATED.
VENTLESS HOOD OPTION ® COMBITHERM The Ventless Hood option is factory installed directly on the top of the Alto-Shaam Combitherm oven. The hood is designed to vent clean air back into the kitchen, filtering vapors and grease. A high-power fan draws steam and fumes into the hood intake and out the top surface exhaust vent. Fumes and vapors are circulated through filters draining the condensation through a drain at the rear of the hood.
VENTLESS HOOD OPTION ® COMBITHERM O P E R AT I O N Turn the ventless hood power knob "ON". Wait five seconds, then press the "COMBI RESET" button. Turn the Combitherm oven power "ON". There are a number of safety features incorporated into the operation of the hood which are directly related to the interaction of hood function and the operation of the combi oven/steamer. I N D I C AT O R L I G H T S If the indicator lights do not illuminate, the filters may be missing or not properly aligned.
