replacement after prolonged use. If there is a need
for service, only authorized Groen representatives
should perform the work.
If steam or condensate is seen leaking from around
the door, take the following steps:
1. Check the door gasket. Replace it if it is cracked
or split.

it is not blocked.

that might occur as the gasket ages.

pin, then turn the latch pin ¼ turn clockwise,
and tighten the lock nut.

further steam leakage.
c. If there is still leakage, repeat the
adjustment.

door fits tightly enough to prevent leakage.
