TIMED/MANUAL rocker switch. Press and hold the CLEAR key to
zero the timer (00:00). The controls will now be set so:

The generator stops steaming, and steam flow to the cooking com-
partment gradually stops.
SEVERE BURNS may result from exposure to steam.
Do not open the steamer door before steam flow stops. Stand
back when opening the compartment door. Open the door
slightly to allow steam to vent before looking or reaching into
cooking compartment Do not reach into cooking compart-
ment until the steam has cleared. Do not reach into steamer or
handle hot items without wearing heat-proof gloves. Wet or
damp gloves conduct heat, and may cause bums when
touching hot items.
7. Carefully open the cooking compartment door, and remove the pans from
the slide racks.
• If the SteamCraft 3.1 will be used again in a few minutes, shut the
door to maintain the cooking compartment temperature.
• If another use is not planned for more than half an hour, leave the
cooking compartment door slightly open to reduce internal pressure
while the steam is condensing and cooling.
• If the SteamCraft 3.1 is not being used again during this shift, perform
the Power OFF and Shut Down and Cleaning Procedures.
Blowdown occurs automatically when the unit is turned off at the ON/OFF
switch. During blowdown, the steam generator and float control are rinsed
with fresh water, flushing deposits from the heating elements and generator
bottom. Blowdown at frequent intervals helps decrease mineral buildup in
the steam generator, and reduces the frequency of descaling and other
maintenance.
Blowdown Frequency
The supply water quality determines how often blowdown must be
performed. The higher the feed water TDS and particulates, the more
frequently blowdown must be performed. Refer to Table 2-2. Minimum
