6. Use a brass or stainless steel wire
brush and small scraper to loosen and
remove excessive deposits from the
Generator surface. If deposits are still
excessive and/or difficult to remove,
go to Step 7.
7. Pour delimer solution (not supplied)
onto the Generator surface. Be sure
to follow the delimer manufacturer’s
directions for proper mixture and
use; it must be safe to be used on
aluminum.
8. Remove the delimer solution from the
Generator and rinse with clear water
to remove traces of delimer.
9. Clean the following parts in hot,
detergent water, then rinse in clear
water and wipe dry:
• Spatula • Chimney • Top Cover
• Liner • Diffuser • Generator Cover
10. Clean Steam Chamber of any product
spills.
11. Clean unit surface with a hot, clean,
damp cloth (not dripping wet) and
wipe dry.
12. Re-install all parts and fasten the
Generator Cover.
NoTE: To ensure proper steaming char-
acteristics, some mineral deposits must
be present on the generator surface. If
during cleaning, the surface does become
free of mineral deposits (bare aluminum),
add plain tap water to surface and allow
to boil off.
NoTE: In soft water areas, it may be nec-
essary to add a small amount of lime to
generator surface to season it. This will
ensure proper steaming characteristics
by producing a thin coating of mineral
deposits on the surface. Seasoning mix-
ture consists of 75 ml baking soda, 75 ml
lime, and 1 gallon water. pour 1/4” deep
of seasoning mixture onto hot generator.
after mixture is converted to steam, the
remaining loose powder can be removed.
13. Plug in power cord(s) and water
line(s).
CauTIoN
If a chemical cleaner/delimer is used, be sure
it is safe to use on cast aluminum. Observe
all precautions and warnings on the product
label.
1. Turn the power off and allow the unit
to cool down before proceeding.
2. Remove the Top Cover, Generator
Cover, and Diffuser Plate (Figure 3).
3. Insert the slanted end of the
Calibration Tube into Steam Generator
hole and push in fully (Figure 8).
NoTE: If tube will not push in easily,
the hole could be clogged with mineral
deposits. use a flat-bladed screwdriver to
clear deposits out of the holes.
4. Put other end of Calibration Tubes into
the Calibration Cup (Figure 9).
5. Turn the power on.
6. Press the Cycle Start button and run
two complete cycles to purge all air
from the tubes.
NoTES: Water may come out of the
Calibration Tubes with force. Hold the
tubes and cup firmly.
7. Empty all water from the cup, then
reinsert the tubes back into the cup.
8. Press the Cycle Start button to run one
cycle. The cup should contain 0.8 oz
(25 ml or 25 cc) water. If the cup con-
tains more or less than this amount,
proceed to Step 9.
9. With the unit positioned at the edge
of its location surface (Edge of the
counter, table, etc.) slide the steamer
forward approximately 3” to expose
the Water Volume Control on the but-
ton of the unit (Figure 10).
10. Using a small screwdriver (Figure 10),
carefully and slowly adjust the control
clockwise to increase or counterclock-
wise to decrease the amount of water
volume used per cycle.
11. Repeat steps 7 through 10 until the
proper amount of water level in the
cup is achieved.
NoTE: If steamer does not steam prop-
erly after calibration, refer to the
Troubleshooting section of this manual.
calibration
A Water Measuring and Calibration Kit is sup-
plied with your unit and consists of the follow-
ing items:
•
Two 24” Tubes
•
One Measuring Cup
CauTIoN
This procedure exposes hot surfaces. Use
extreme care when performing procedure as
to avoid personal injury.
NoTE: If the Calibration Kit is missing, use
the Calibration Chart (Figure 11) to figure
the approximate volume. Turn the water
volume control to 0. Determine your
water pressure and locate it on the chart
(left side), then look to the right to find
the volume closest to 0.8 oz. (25 ml or 25
cc). Turn adjustment clockwise to setting
shown at top of chart.
