Descale The Water Reservoir - Cleveland SteamChef 22CET3.1 Operator's Manual

3. Yearly Maintenance – Clean the Water Strainers (Filter Washers)
Clean the water line strainers at least once a year.
NOTE: When the steamer is first installed, check the strainer more frequently to find out how often the
strainer must be cleaned.
a. Turn OFF power to the steamer at the Main External Power Switch.
b. Close the valves in the steamer water supply lines.
c. Unscrew the hoses from the inlet fittings located on the rear of the
steamer.
d. Remove the filter washers (See Figure 2-2 and 7-1) from the outlet
of the hoses and wash them with clean water.
e. Check the filter washer for wear and replace it if necessary.
f. Put the filter washers into each of the water inlets and reconnect
the hoses to the back of the steamer.
g. If treated water is used to supply water to the reservoir, make sure
that it is connected to the left inlet at the rear of the steamer. (See
Figure 2-2.)
h. Open water supply valve(s) and check for water leaks.
i. Turn power back on to the steamer at the Main External Power Switch.
NOTE: The appliance will perform the automatic 3-minute drain rinse cycle
B. Descale the Water Reservoir
NOTICE: Only qualified Cleveland Range authorized technicians or trained onsite maintenance
personnel may perform this procedure.
1. Is Descaling Necessary?
a. Although, a SteamChef should not normally require this procedure, the use of "hard" water or
failure to follow the cleaning procedures in Chapter 6 may cause the accumulation of scale in
the SteamChef.
b. Scale can deposit in the bottom of the SteamChef reservoir and/or in its drain. Descaling can
help prevent a costly service call if scale buildup begins to impair the SteamChef's operation.
c. Descaling is not normally required on a SteamChef. Frequency will depend on water quality,
and the frequency of shutdown and cleaning of the water reservoir as described in Chapter 6.
d. The frequency of descaling must be determined by the owner and performed by qualified
Cleveland Range authorized technicians, or trained onsite maintenance personnel.
2. If descaling is necessary, Cleveland Range recommends the use of DISSOLVE® Descaler Solution,
Cleveland Range Part No. 106174. No other system of descaling should be used. NOTE: Part No.
106174 is the Part No. for a case (6 1-gallon containers) of DISSOLVE® descaler.
3. Follow the instructions included with the DISSOLVE® Descaler Solution. Call Cleveland Range at
216-481-4900 or 1-800-338-2204 if there are any questions.
