The timer is used in three ways:
1 In the HOLD position the steam
generator stays at a low boil or “holding”
temperature. Factory set at 180°F.
2 When a cook time is set, the timing light
will illuminate. The unit steams until the
timer runs down to DONE. At that time
steaming stops, the DONE light
illuminates and a beeper sounds.
3 When the timer is turned to the ON
position, the unit steams continuously.
The green ON light will stay illuminated.
B. Operating Procedure
NOTE: When the unit is first installed, or
anytime incoming power is interrupted, the
RESET light will illuminate. Momentarily turn
the drain handle to open then back to close
to reset the unit and extinguish the RESET
light.
1. With the cooking chamber water reservoir
“empty” press the ON/OFF touch pad. The
ADD H2O light will illuminate when the door
is opened.. Pour water into the reservoir
through the door. When the water level
comes up to the hi probe the reservoir is full
and 3 beeps will sound. Close door.
2. Set the timer knob to the HOLD or ON
position. The unit will be ready in about 20
minutes.
3. Load food into pans in uniform layers. Pans
should be filled to about the same levels,
and should not be mounded.
4. Open the door and slide the pans onto the
supports. If you will only be steaming one
pan, put it in the middle position. Some
foods will cause foam. When cooking foods
that foam, such as shrimp, put an empty
solid 2 ½ “ deep pan in the bottom slot of the
pan racks.
5. Close the door. With the HOLD indicator
illuminated, take one of the following steps:
! If you want to steam the food for a
certain length of time, set the timer for
that period. The timer will automatically
run the steamer for the set time and
then turn it off. A beeper will sound.
Steam production stops. The red DONE
light will illuminate.
! If you want to steam continuously, turn the
timer to the manual ON position. The green
ON light will illuminate. The unit will continue
steaming.
! If you want to maintain food at holding
temperature turn the timer to the “HOLD”
position.
