• For best cooking results, use shallow, 2-1/2 inch deep,
perforated pans without covers (Cleveland Range model
number PP-2.5). These give the best heat transfer and
shortest cooking time.
4. Close the steamer door and start manual mode steaming by
pressing the MANUAL (bottom) end of the TIMED/MANUAL
switch.
• The steam generator begins heating the water to steam.
• Steam fills the cooking compartment and begins cooking the

a. Set the required cooking time by turning the timer dial
clockwise until it points to the correct time mark.
b. When the dial points to zero, a buzzer sounds for 3
seconds. The cooking time is complete.
Remember, in manual mode, the timer does not stop the
steaming functions.
6. To stop manual mode steaming, press the TIMED (top) end of
the TIMED/MANUAL rocker switch, and turn the timer dial to
the 0 mark. The controls will now be set so:
• The ON/OFF switch is in the ON (top) position.
• The TIMED/MANUAL switch is in the TIMED (top) position.
• The timer dial points to 0.
The generator stops steaming, and steam flow to the cooking
compartment gradually stops.
