Congratulations! You have just purchased a new Cadco Switch-Air Digital Convection Oven. Let’s go
over some of the basics before you start using your new oven.
Your new Cadco Switch-Air Digital Convection Oven will have one of two control panels which will
provide the following functions:
Classic control panel (XAF-130, XAF-111):
• Set time
• Set temperature
• Set multi step operation
• Set up to 70 programs into memory
Dynamic control panel (XAF-195, XAF-188, XAF-135, XAF-115):
• Set time
• Set temperature
• Set humidity
• Set multi step operation
• Set up to 70 three step programs into memory
• Control (optional) models XAL135 & XAL195 Proofer functions
The first and most important step will be: Have your new oven hooked up to the proper power and (if
applicable) water source. If there is any doubt about the proper power or the connections, have the oven
installed by a qualified electrician according to your local codes.
The Cadco Switch-Air Digital Convection Ovens work on the principle of moving air. This air movement
removes the “Hot Spots” so we get very even browning, rapid preheats (10 minutes), and faster cooking.
Here are some basic do’s and don’ts for convection cooking:
• Use pans that have sides no taller than a common sheet pan.
• Preheat the oven to 50ºF above your baking temperature.
• Set the oven for your desired cooking temperature after you have placed the food inside.
• If you notice uneven cooking, set the oven temperature down 25º/30º. Let the product tell you if it
needs more or less heat.
• Aluminum foil can get pulled into the fan and cause damage.
• Don’t overload the oven.
• Maintain a minimum 2”-3”
between the product being cooked and the next shelf. Remove shelves if
necessary.
• Your Cadco Convection Oven is a powerful tool, so don’t hesitate to utilize its full capacity.
• Keep your oven clean. Wipe up spills as they occur. Never allow grease to build up on the interior of
the oven, or collect on the bottom of the cooking cavity.
