TESTING PROCEDURE

WARNING

:

   

THE STEAMER AND ITS PARTS ARE HOT.  USE CARE WHEN OPERATING,

CLEANING OR SERVICING THE STEAMER.  THE COOKING COMPARTMENT CONTAINS LIVE
STEAM.  STAY CLEAR WHILE OPENING THE DOOR.

Once the steamer is installed and all mechanical connections have been made, thoroughly test the
steamer before operation.

1. Check that proper water, drain, and electrical connections have been made.

2. Open water valve.  Turn main power switch ON.  After approximately 15 minutes, the READY light

should come on, indicating that the water temperature is 205

°

F.

3. When the READY light comes on, turn the dial timer to 5 minutes.  With door open, observe that

no steam is entering the compartment and the COOKING light is not lit.

4. Close compartment door.  The COOKING light is lit and steam should be heard entering the

compartment.

5. Check drain line to ensure that water from the cold water condenser is flowing through the drain

line.

6. Open compartment door and observe that steam supply to the chamber is cut off.  The READY light

should come on; the COOKING light goes off.

7. Close compartment door and let cooking cycle finish.  When timer returns to 

0

, a buzzer will sound

signalling the end of the cooking cycle.  To silence the buzzer, turn the dial timer to OFF.

8. To turn the steamer off, turn the main power switch OFF — the steam generator will drain.  Leave

the door open to allow the inside to dry out.
