Steam Vent Blocked - See Sec-
tion 4.8
Steam should be coming out of vent at back of
steamer.
Check for blockage in the vent, which can cause
the Chamber Pressure Switch to open.
If a blockage is present, try to pour some hot
water down the vent piping to unclog the
blockage (may have to blow out the blockage if
water doesn’t help).
If the steamer operates with the door cracked but
not with it shut, the vent is definitely blocked.
Ensure that there is at least a minimum of 1/4”
slope for every foot added, of extended exhaust
piping.
Ensure that any extended exhaust piping is made
of stainless steel, or copper; and a minimum of
3/4” in diameter.
Steam Temperature is Not at
Desired Cook Temp
Check that the Door is closed and no steam is
escaping from it.
Verify that Low Water indicator light is NOT lit.
Check that steamer is in the COOK mode and
NOT in the HOLD mode.
M
Door Assembly Check to see if the Door is seating completely
around the face of the Steamer.
Check that the Door Gasket does NOT have any
cuts, nicks, debris, or discolorations (white or
grey).
Perform a ‘dollar bill test.’ Trap a dollar bill
between the closed door and frame of the unit.
There should be significant resistance when
attempting to pull the dollar free. Little or no
resistance indicates a poor seal. The fit of the door
can be adjusted:
1. Remove hinge covers.
2. Loosen 6 screws holding hinge to unit.
3. Apply pressure door to attain better fit
4. Retighten screws.
Pressure Switch Check that the Chamber Pressure Switch opens
and closes.
Checking the Ohms reading while blowing into
its input hose. (Disconnect the hose from the
chamber inlet hole.)
