3.1 GENERAL
This section contains information for you to test and familiarize
yourself with the operation of the Steam-Tech Plus.
After the unit is completely assembled all packing materials re
-
moves and all service connections are made, all systems must
be gives a thorough check out before being put into operation.
Be sure that the cooking compartments are empty and all pan
support racks are in place. Confirm that all service connections
are on. Select a cooking compartment to test. Close the cook
-
ing compartment door and turn the timer knob to the OFF posi
-
tion.

FIGURE 3.1 CONTROLS & INDICATORS
Note that your unit may come equipped with an independent
POWER ON indicator located to the left of the power switch.
NOTE:
REpEAT STEpS IN SECTION 3.2 THROUGH 3.7
FOR BOTH THE UppER & LOWER COOKING COmpART-
mENTS TO INSURE pROpER FUNCTIONING OF THE EN-
TIRE UNIT.
3.2 WARM UP
Push the POWER switch into ON position. The power light will
come on immediately, along with the fan motor. You will hear
water entering the unit through the solenoid valves filling both
the steam generator and the tempering tank.
Once the water levels in the steam generator and tempering
tank have reached the appropriate level the solenoid valves
will close and the heater will energize. After a short time (
ap-
proximately 5 minutes, depending on heater voltage
), the green
READY light will come on, indicating that the unit is ready to
make steam.
3.3 STEAM DEMAND
Due to the unique nature of this design, it is important to under
-
stand what the STEAM DEMAND system does. The STEAM
DEMAND system is the means by which the Steam-Tech Plus
monitors and creates steam. This system uses very sensitive
sensors to monitor the minute steam fluctuations inside the
cooking compartment. These fluctuations are an indicator of
how much steam energy the food inside the cooking compart
-
ment is using. The sensors control the heater, insuring that
steam is creates only as fast as it will be accepted by the food
inside the cooking compartment, no more no less.
The system can be monitored by observing the red STEAM
DEMAND indicator, located at the top of the control panel. The
STEAM DEMAND indicator will light up red only when steam is
called for and will cycle on an off throughout the cooking cycle.
3.4 STEAM MODE
Turn the MODE SELECT switch to the STEAM mode. Set the
TIMER knob to 10 minutes. Immediately, the STEAM ON win
-
dow, located near the top of the control panel, should light up
green. At the same time, the STEAM DEMAND window should
light up red. After a short time, the red STEAM DEMAND light
will begin to cycle on and off, while the green STEAM ON light
stays on continuously.
When the timer reaches 0 minutes, the buzzer will sound and
both the STEAM ON and the STEAM DEMAND light will turn
off. The buzzer is silenced by returning the TIMER knob to the
OFF position. The green READY light will stay illuminated.
3.5 STEAM & HOLD MODE
Turn the MODE SELECT switch to the STEAM & HOLD mode.
Set the TIMER knob to 10 minutes, immediately the STEAM ON
window located near the top of the control panel, should light up
green. At the same time, the STEAM DEMAND window should
light up red. After a short time, the red STEAM DEMAND light
will begin to cycle on and off, while the green STEAM ON light
stays on continuously.
When the timer reached 0 minutes, the buzzer will sound and
both the STEAM ON and the STEAM DEMAND lights will turn
off. The buzzer is silenced by returning the TIMER knob to the
OFF position. The green READY light will stay illuminated.
Wile the HOLD light is on, the cooking compartment will func
-
tion as a holding cabinet, maintaining a safe food holding tem
-
perature of approximately 160
O
F indefinitely. Each of the cook
-
ing compartments has its own independent temperature gauge.
The cooking compartment temperature gauges are mounted
on the right hand side of the steam vent hoods, directly above
the control panel for each of the cooking compartments.
3.6 CONSTANT STEAM MODE
The CONSTANT STEAM button overrides all other cooking
mode. When the CONSTANT STEAM button is depressed, the
CONSTANT STEAM window, located next to the CONSTANT
STEAM button will light up green.
Immediately the STEAM ON window, located near the top of
the control panel, should light up green. At the same time, the
STEAM DEMAND window should light up red. After a short
time the red STEAM DEMAND light will begin to cycle on and
off, while the green STEAM ON light remains illuminated con
-
tinuously.
NOTE:
Even in the constant steam mode the heater will only
create as much steam as will be accepted by the food inside
the cooking compartment. No matter what mode has been se-
lected the red STEAm DEmAND indicator will cycle on and off.
