MODEL VSX9000 ELECTRIC COUNTERTOP PLEASE KEEP THIS MANUAL Your Vulcan Steamer is a one-compartment pressureless steam cooker that has been factory assembled and tested to provide for easy installation. It has been factory set when on to maintain water temperature during the ready phase at approximately 205 F (just below water boiling point).

Your steamer has been factory set so that when it is ON and during the READY phase, it will maintain water temperature in the steam generator tank at approxiamtely 205 F (just below water boiling point). However, for high altitude locations, an authorized Vulcan-Hart servicer must adjust the steamer to achieve this temperature. To adjust: 1.
Water fill solenoid valve is open, then any or all of these symptoms may indicate a problem with the operating probe due to either: 1. A short between the operating probe terminal and body of the steamer. Call your Vulcan-Hart authorized servicer.
HEATER ELEMENTS DO NOT COME ON When the steamer is turned ON and heater elements do not activate, and therefore, the READY light does not come on, then the contactors may be burned out. If a considerable amount of "chattering" of contactors has been experienced previously, then the thermostat bulb must be coated with scalant and unable to accurately sense water temperature in the boiler, and therefore, unable to control the contactors.
If you need assistance in locating your nearest authorized parts and service depot, contact Vulcan-Hart Product Service Department at the telephone number shown on the front cover of this manual.
