8. To evaluate whether a SteamChef is at normal performance: conduct the Egg Test. (Note: this test is
not valid for pressure steamers). A properly operating SteamChef will produce perfect hard-boiled eggs.
a. Turn on the SteamChef in Manual Mode, or for ON/OFF models set the selector to the ON
position. Preheat the SteamChef for 10 minutes.
b. After preheating:
1) Place a fresh egg on a perforated steam table pan in the middle of the oven compartment.
2) Close the door and set the Timer as directed by the Egg Test Size Chart.
3) Carefully remove the egg and place in a container with cold water running over it.
4) Let the egg cool under cold running water for 5 minutes.
5) After cooling, crack peel off the eggshell.
6) The result is a perfect hard-boiled egg.
9. Although, a SteamChef should not normally require descaling, the use of extremely "hard" water or
failure to follow consistently the cleaning procedures outlined in the Shutdown and Cleaning
Instructions in Chapter 3 may cause the accumulation of scale in the SteamChef. Should this occur
the supplementary descaling procedure outline in Chapter 7 "Other Maintenance – Periodic Descaling
of Water Reservoir" may be necessary. Notice: only qualified Cleveland Range authorized technicians
or trained onsite maintenance personnel may perform this service.
