  • Page 20 SERVICE INFORMATION SECTION 6: MODELS: SC-2 & SC-3 COOKER PROBLEMS (cont'd) Steam escapes from compartment during cooking cycle Initially in the cooking cycle, air is displaced by steam in the compartment through the Compartment Vent (Thermostatic Trap). Displacement of air is audible by the hissing noise but should cease when the Thermo-static Trap reacts to the higher temperature of steam entering the trap.
  • Page 21 SERVICE INFORMATION SECTION 6: MODELS: SC-2 & SC-3 COOKER PROBLEMS (cont'd) Water enters compartment through Steam Solenoid Valve If the cooking cycle is on and water enters compartment through valve and steam pressure is nonexistent, then this may indicate malfunction of the Water Level Control (in Cabinet).
