The appliance must be connected to a water
supply not exceeding 60PSI. Use an NSF
approved appliance hose with a ¾” garden hose
type connection to connect from a spigot /shut -
off valve to the steamer. It must also be installed
with adequate backflow protection to comply
with applicable Federal, State, and Local codes.
To operate, simply turn water supply ON and
press the ON Pushbutton. The reservoir will auto-
matically fill to the maximum operating level
while the unit preheats to the Hold, Standby, or
Cook temperature, depending on Model and
settings.
IMPORTANT - Always keep level sensing probes
(located inside reservoir) clean. This will help
insure proper working conditions.
The receptacle requirements vary between
models. AC power requirements are listed on the
data plate located on the rear of the unit. Note
that the receptacles that accept the plugs are
commonly used in both 208 volt and 240 volt
installations. Make sure the voltage at the supply
receptacle is /- 10% of the voltage listed
on the cooker's data plate. Connection to any
other voltage may permanently damage your
cooker or cause premature component failure.
This type of damage is NOT covered by the warranty.
Optionally, a permanent supply connection may
be made using rigid or flexible conduit. Consult
a qualified electrician or serviceman to ensure all
wiring is performed to electrical codes.
The Intek Steamer is designed to be placed on a
standard, commercial kitchen countertop or on a
stainless steel stand. Check with your local health
department, but a hood or vent is usually not
required for the steamer. Therefore, it may be
placed anywhere in the kitchen.
The steamer must be installed in a level condition.
Countertop Placement
For countertop installation, a non-slip rubber
coating is installed on the bottom of the steamer
legs. This will keep the steamer from sliding on
the countertop under normal use. Adjust the four
legs as needed to level the steamer.
On a stand
If installing the unit onto a stand, bolt the unit(s)
in place at the four locations on the bottom of
the cooker, using the hardware provided with the
stand. Level the unit(s) by adjusting the four
legs on the stand.
The Intek Steamer has been designed,
manufactured, and tested to meet or exceed
the standards of safety set forth by Underwriter's
Laboratories, Inc. If any of these instructions
are not completely understood, or you have any
doubt as to whether your supply receptacle
is of the correct voltage, amperage, or you
have any doubt as to whether your supply is
properly grounded, consult a qualified electrician
or serviceman.
