CONSTANT STEAM FEATURE, (OPTIONAL)
A switch has been added to control this feature. It is located below the timer under the
heading “COOKING MODE”.
TIMED COOKING
T
he switch must be positioned to the right, towards the heading “TIMED COOKING”.
The steamer will then operate as described in the previous section. At the end of the
cook time an audible buzzer will sound.
CONSTANT STEAM COOKING
The switch must be positioned to the left towards the heading “CONTINUOUS
COOKING”. This mode will give continuous steam to the cooking chamber until the
operator
either turns the selector switch to the “TIMED COOKED” position, or turns
power OFF to the steamer. When cooking is complete, or not in use, the constant steam
cooking feature should be shut off. This prevents the boiler from running unnecessarily.
This will help conserve water, and will reduce boiler maintenance.
SHUT DOWN
Turn the selector switch to TIMED COOKING. Turn main power switch to the “OFF”
position.
DRAINING THE BOILER
Drain the boiler after each day’s use to flush out minerals and minimize scale build-up.
The boiler drains automatically for approximately 4 - 6 minutes after the main power
switch is turned off.
ADJUSTMENT FOR HIGH ALTITUDE LOCATIONS
The steamer has been factory set so that when it is ON, and during the READY phase, it
will maintain water temperature in the steam generator tank at approximately 205°F
(96°C) (just below water boiling point). However, for high altitude locations, an
authorized service agency must adjust the steamer to achieve this temperature.
