Steamy environment- WARNING
If a large volume of steam is discharged into a confined
operating area the resulting condensation may cause
a hazard or operating faults or permanent damage to
the controller. This would not be caused by the small
amount of steam generated in normal use when the
machine is operated or the safety valve tested as in these
instructions. It could be caused by a continuous leak of
steam from a supply pipe, a badly maintained and failed
safety valve, the user must ensure that all appropriate
maintenance is performed to avoid such large steam leaks
which are outside the scope of these instructions and
outside the machine warranty.
