inner door is tight with the outer door and does not move by itself or rattle.  
d. Open and close the door. All movements should be smooth.  
NOTES:  
DO NOT USE the MINI if water stands in the drain opening. Immediately clean the drain. See  
Chapter 9, “At the End of the Day or Shift” for instructions.  
Remove any food, debris, or scale blocking the drain or screen.  
Never push food, debris, or scale into the drain.  
Be sure the drain cover is properly installed into the bottom of the cooking compartment. The  
drain cover prevents large pieces of food from entering and blocking the drain.  
F. PRE-HEATING THE MINI  
1. The pre-heating function heats the oven to the desired temperature before loading food and helps  
ensure consistency and quality. Use pre-heating at the start of a shift, after long pauses in cooking,  
and between multiple cooking or rethermalizing batches.  
NOTICE: Before pre-heating: inspect and clean the Oven Compartment. After pre-heating the Oven  
Compartment is too hot to inspect and clean safely.  
a. To pre-heat a MINI: Close the door and start the MINI in the desired mode (Steam, Hot Air, or  
MINI).  
Pre-heat temperatures should be 10-20% higher than cooking temperatures.  
Typical-pre-heat times are 10 to 15 minutes.  
See Chapter 3, for basic operating instructions.  
5
Repeat the preheat process as needed to maintain constant oven temperature and high food  
quality.

hot food is being held!  
IMPORTANT:  
Cook and hold requires use of the Core Temperature Sensor  
For more information on the Cook Phase and entering recipe names See Chapter 7  
“Using Multi-Step Recipes.”  
The Cook & Hold function includes a “cook” phase and a “hold” phase.  
The Hold phase is the LAST step in a recipe AFTER the food is cooked.  
The Hold phase is the second step if only one cooking step is required.  
The switch from cook phase to hold phase is automatic. (See Table 5-4 and illustration  
“The Principle of Cook & Hold).  
Always pre-heat the MINI.  
To Use Cook & Hold:

16. Start the recipe from the cookbook. See Chapter 7 for details.  
NOTES:  
When using the “Hot Air” or “Combi” mode in the cook phase, a temperature range of 248°F to  
300°F is recommended.  
The time at which the oven switches to the hold phase depends on the type of food, volume being  
cooked, and portion or piece size.  
Select the required nominal core temperature for the hold temperature to avoid overcooking.  
RECOMMENDATIONS:  
Prepare food during quiet times, load the MINI and start the Cook & Hold process well before the  
finished dishes are required.

H. LT Cooking: Cooking at Low Temperatures  
NOTES:  
Use oven temperatures from 86°F to 212°F  
LT Cooking requires use of the Core Temperature Sensor  
Dark types of meat are particularly suited to low-temperature cooking.  
Some of the benefits of Low Temperature cooking:  
Meat retains almost all its raw weight, and becomes very tender and juicy.  
To prevent the surface of foods from drying out, the fan runs for 2 seconds every minute when  
below 212°F.  
This method of cooking prevents crustiness.  
RECOMMENDATIONS:  
SET the oven temperature only a few degrees higher than the final core temperature.  
The higher the oven temperature, the greater the meat shrinkage.
