First Firing - Omcan CE-IN-3232 Manuel

Omcan ovens use a safety pilot system to ignite the burner and monitor flames and to shut off the gas supply
in case of loss of burner or pilot flames. The gas supplies to the pilot and burner are fed through a thermo-
magnetic safety valve. A thermocouple is part of the safety systems and it functions to hold the gas valve open
after a proper pilot flame is established.
Before firing of unit, fit burner plate over burner and place a layer of rocks evenly and level onto plate. Only use
rocks as supplied with the appliance.
USER INSTRUCTIONS
1. Make sure that the manual shutoff valve behind the unit is turned off and that the Tandoor gas valves are
turned off.
2. Open the main gas line to the Tandoor oven.
3. On the appliance control valve depress and hold the black knob on the start position indicated by a star for
10 seconds to start pilot gas flow and to clear the air from the gas line.
4. Repeatedly push the piezo igniter until the pilot burner lights. (the pilot light can be seen faintly at 5 o' clock
below the burner plate).
5. Continue to keep the control knob pressed in for a further 20 seconds for the flame sensing device to
establish itself.
6. If the pilot burner extinguishes itself when the knob is released, repeat the above procedure.
7. If the burner extinguishes for the any reason while the oven is operating, switch control off and WAIT
5 MINUTES BEFORE RELIGHTING. If for any reason burners become extinguished, repeat lighting
instructions beginning with Step 1.
8. After the pilot burner is lit main burner can be turned on. To do so rotate the control knob anti-clockwise,
(counter clock). The burner can now be set to high flame position indicated by the large flame symbol. To
adjust flames to lower flame setting, turn knob to the low position, or anywhere between the two, continue
to turn the control knob anti-clockwise towards the small flame symbol.
9. The main burner should light smoothly and quietly. Burner flames should be predominantly blue.
10. When not in use, the control knob should always be set to the OFF position.

FIRST FIRING

It is important to gradually build up heat within the Tandoor the first time it's being used. The burner should be
at very low setting (control valve set at LOW) for at least 6 hours before gradually increasing the flame
intensity.
During this procedure the mouth of the Tandoor should be completely exposed. DO NOT cover the
opening with the stainless steel lid. Do not be alarmed if you see small fissures appear on the clay surface it
will not affect the performance of the Tandoor.
SHUTTING DOWN OF THE APPLIANCE
To turn off the appliance, turn the control clockwise until the indicator on the knob is in the off position indicated
by the black dot symbol. Visually confirm that the flames have gone out.
