3. INITIAL SYSTEMS INSPECTION
CAUTION: THE TIMER IS USEFUL ONLY AS AN ALARM
WHEN IN THE
CONSTANT STEAM MODE. THE TIMER
WILL COUNT DOWN, BUT IT WILL HAVE NO EFFECT ON
THE CONTINUOUS GENERATION OF STEAM, AS IT WILL
BE OVERRIDDEN BY THE CONSTANT STEAM BUTTON.
3.7 STEAM SUPPRESSION
The proper operation of the steam suppression system is evi-
denced by the lack of steam billowing out of the cooking cav-
ity when the door is opened. While the generator is creating
steam, open the door to the cooking compartment. As soon as
the door is opened, a solenoid valve will open sending water to
a spray nozzle inside the steam generator. You should hear the
spray for approximately 3 to 4 seconds. At the same time, both
the STEAM ON and STEAM DEMAND lights will turn off. The
green READY light will stay on.
Also, when the door is opened, any residual steam will be
drawn up into the steam vent hood. The steam vent hoods are
located above each cooking compartment.
When the door is closed the STEAM ON and STEAM DEMAND
windows will light up again. At the same time, a bubbling sound
will be heard as the cool air is evacuated from the cooking com-
partment and replaced with a fresh steam from the generator.
he unit will continue to cycle normally, as it was before the door
was opened.
NOTE: Repeat steps in section 3.2 through section 3.7 for both
the upper and lower cooking compartments to insure proper
functioning of the entire unit before proceeding to the next sec-
tion (shutdown).
3.8 SHUT DOWN
No special procedure is necessary for shutting the unit down.
Simply press the POWER switch into the OFF position. All indi-
cator lights on the control panel will go out and the generator for
the cooking compartment will drain. The tempering tank will not
drain until both POWER switches are in the OFF position.
CAUTION: WHEN THE UNIT IS NOT IN USE, LEAVE BOTH
COOKING COMPARTMENT DOORS SLIGHTLY AJAR TO
EXTEND THE LIFE OF THE DOOR GASKETS.
Please note that the TIMER should be in the OFF position and
the CONSTANT STEAM should be disengaged upon restarting
the unit to avoid any unintentional generation of steam on start
up.
NOTE: As a final test of the unit before use in cooking food,
both generator should be shut down allowing both the genera-
tor and tempering tank to completely drain.
