Grounding Instructions
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric
shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This oven is equipped with a cord that has a ground-
ing wire with a grounding plug, which must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.
Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if uncertain about the ability to
follow grounding instructions or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.
X
do not use an extension cord. If the power cord is too short, have a qualified electrician or
serviceman install an outlet near the appliance.
WARNING: Improper grounding can result in risk of electric shock.
Power Cord replacement or removal
If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent, or a similarly
qualified person.
WARNING: If the plug is removed during service or maintenance, the plug must remain accessible
to the user and within proximity to the oven.
Precautions to Avoid Possible Exposure to Excessive Microwave Energy
(a) Do not attempt to operate this oven with the door open since open-door operation can result in
harmful exposure to microwave energy. It is important not to defeat or tamper with the safety
interlocks.
(b) Do not place any object between the oven front face and the door or allow soil or cleaner residue to
accumulate on sealing surfaces.
(c) Do not operate the oven if it is damaged. It is particularly important that the oven door close
properly and that there is no damage to the: (1) Door (bent), (2) hinges and latches (broken or
loosened), (3) door seals and sealing surfaces.
(d) The oven should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone except properly qualified service personnel.
rf Interference Considerations
The Sota (model NGO) oven generates radio frequency signals. This device has been tested and was determined
to be in compliance with applicable portions of FCC part 18 requirements and to the protection requirements of
Council Directive 89/336/EEC on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to electromagnetic
compatibility at the time of manufacture. However, some equipment with sensitivity to signals below these limits
may experience interference.
If your equipment experiences interference:
a
Increase the physical separation between this oven and the sensitive equipment.
If the sensitive device can be grounded, do so following accepted grounding practices.
If battery-powered microphones are being affected, ensure that the batteries are fully charged.
Keep sensitive equipment on separate electrical circuits if possible.
a
a
a
a
Route intercom wires, microphone wires, speaker cables, etc. away from the oven..

date and Time Prompt
The oven maintains a data log that contains valuable
information about the operation of the oven, including
faults, items cooked, and other events. An accurate
date and time are important for the data log. If the
oven loses the date and time as a result of prolonged
disconnection from power, a prompt will alert the
operator to set the date and time. The prompt will only
occur once. If bypassed, the operator must update the
date and time from the Info Mode Settings screen (see
pages 14 and 15 for details.)
To ensure continued compliance with all health, build-
ing, and fire codes, you are required to maintain clean
and sanitary conditions around your oven at all times.
NOTE: In no event shall the manufacturer assume any
liability for damages or injuries resulting from instal-
lations which are not in compliance with the instruc-
tions and codes previously listed. Failure to comply
with these instructions could result in the issuance
of a temporary cease and desist order from the local
health department until the environment concerns are
addressed.

COOKING
Menu Cook Mode
The oven is preprogrammed with recipe settings at the time of manufacture and is ready to operate out of the
box. New menu settings can be loaded via USB or smart card (page 16-17) or programmed manually
(page 18). If settings are not present, the oven will cook only in manual mode (page 11).
This oven uses impingement and microwave to cook food faster than traditional cooking methods. Air enters
the cavity from the top and bottom using independent fans. Because of this design and to ensure uniformity
of cooking, the oven must be operated only while the top and bottom jetplates are in place. While the
bottom jetplate is removable for cleaning, it is not removable for cooking. Without the bottom jetplate in
place, the oven will not deliver the proper cooking performance to either the top or bottom of the food item.
Additionally, oven damage may result.
The sequence of the steps below may vary, and some may not apply.
Step 1: Touch “Menu” or the Oven Set Temperature Icon to Turn the Oven On
Step 2: Select Cook Temperature
NOTE: If the temperatures are the same, or if Manual Mode
is disabled, this screen will be bypassed.
Step 3: Warming up
NOTE: When the oven is done warming up, it will
“soak” for an additional eight minutes. “Soaking” ensures
the cavity surfaces absorb enough heat so that cooking
will not be affected.

Warranty Service, Exclusive remedy
TurboChef will be solely responsible for determining whether or not the Equipment or any component thereof is defective.
Defective components covered by this warranty will be repaired or replaced at TurboChef’s option without charge to you and
such repaired or replacement components will be covered by this warranty for the balance of the Warranty Period. Parts used in
the repair of defective components and replacement components may be new, recovered or rebuilt. At its sole option, TurboChef
may decide to replace defective Equipment covered by this warranty with new, recovered or rebuilt Equipment of equal or great-
er capability, and such Equipment will be covered by this Limited Warranty for the balance of the Warranty Period. Defective
Equipment and components will become the property of TurboChef. This paragraph states TurboChef’s sole and exclusive obli-
gation and liability and your sole and exclusive remedy under this warranty. TurboChef shall not be responsible for a failure to
provide warranty services due to causes beyond TurboChef’s or its service agents’ control.
Warranty Claims
Claims under this warranty must be reported to TurboChef during our normal working hours at 800.90TURBO, or such other
reporting service as TurboChef may designate. Upon receipt of the claim and related information and preliminary
verification that the claim is valid, TurboChef will promptly notify an authorized service agent to contact you and arrange for an
on-site repair visit during the service agent’s normal working hours. Any costs incurred by TurboChef or its service agent associ-
ated with a service agent being refused or unable to gain access to the Equipment on your premises, or a claim not covered by
this warranty, will be charged to you.
disclaimer of damages
TurboChef disclaims all incidental, special and consequential damages, including but not limited to loss of use, lost revenue or
profits, or substitute use, suffered by you or any third party, whether arising in contract, tort (including negligence), or other-
wise, resulting from any breach by TurboChef or its service agents of this warranty, or resulting from the manufacture, use, or
defects, of or in the Equipment, even if TurboChef was apprised of the possibility of such damages.
Customer Indemnity
You agree to indemnify, defend and hold TurboChef harmless from all third party claims, demands, judgments, fees and costs
directly or indirectly arising out of or related to your use of the Equipment. You further agree to indemnify and hold TurboChef
harmless from any incidental, consequential or special damages suffered by you, including lost revenue or profits, loss of use, or
substitute use, during periods of Equipment failure or loss of use.
Territory
This warranty is valid in the United States of America, Canada and Puerto Rico.
Governing Law, Entire Warranty
This warranty shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas, USA (except with respect to
its provisions regarding conflicts of laws). The warranty described herein is the complete and only warranty for Equipment and
supersedes all prior oral or written agreements and understandings that may have existed between us relating to Equipment war-
ranties. The terms of this warranty may not be altered, amended or modified except by a signed writing from TurboChef. Any
purported alteration, amendment or modification by a service agent or anyone else will not be enforceable against TurboChef.
Charges for Non-Warranty Service or rejection of Service Visit
In the event that repairs, replacement or service are provided by TurboChef’s service agents for work not covered by this
limited warranty, customer agrees to pay the service agent directly according to the service agent’s normal scale of charges. In the
event TurboChef is invoiced by the service agent for services not covered under this extended warranty, TurboChef will invoice
customer and customer will pay such invoice based on terms of net 10 days. Customer also agrees to pay any cost incurred by
TurboChef or its service agent associated with a service agent responding to a call for service, but then being refused or unable to
gain access to the Oven on Customer’s premises. Failure to submit payment may, at TurboChef’s
discretion, result in TurboChef voiding the balance of the warranty. In no event will TurboChef authorize service to a store with
an outstanding Non-Warranty invoice.
