CAUTION

This equipment is designed and sold for
commercial use only by personnel trained and
experienced in its operation and is not sold for
consumer use in and around the home nor for
use directly by the general public in food
service locations. For equipment to be used
by the general public, please contact the
factory.

VOLTAGE

The steamer is equipped for use on the
voltage specified on the nameplate.

CAUTION

DO NOT CONNECT TO ANY OTHER
TYPE OF CURRENT OR THE
MACHINE WILL BE SERIOUSLY
DAMAGED.

INSTALLATION/OPERATION
PROCEDURE

1. Place the unit on a level surface. Pour three
to six quarts of water into the hot dog
(small) compartment. Do not overfill. (The
use of hot water will reduce pre-heat time.)

2. Place hot dogs in small compartment and
buns in the wire rack in the large
compartment. Arrange the hot dogs and
buns so that there is free circulation of
steam.

3. Turn the switch to "on" position, and set the
thermostat control on "high" until steam is
generated.

4. For normal operation set the thermostat
control in the center of the range between
"high" and "lo".

5. To control the amount of steam in the bun
compartment, use the adjustable
humidity control lever located in the bun
compartment under the center cover.

6. Keep the lids closed when not serving.

7. Add water as it becomes necessary to
maintain the water level. (Add hot water
for best results.)

DO NOT ALLOW THE UNIT TO BOIL DRY.
ADD WATER WHEN REQUIRED.

AT THE END OF EACH DAY'S
OPERATION:

1. Disconnect the lead-in cord from the outlet.

2. Remove any remaining hot dogs and buns.

3. Drain the water through the drain pipe.

4. Remove the perforated tray from the hot dog
compartment and the wire rack and steam baffle
assembly from the bun compartment. Remove
the bun tray, partition and the glass panels.
Thoroughly clean the entire unit. Stainless steel,
while corrosion resistant, should be cleaned daily
to prevent pitting.

POSSIBLE SOURCES OF TROUBLE AND
SUGGESTED REMEDIES

Evidence of condensation of the outside of the
Steamer. Cool air striking the warm surface of the
steamer may cause moisture to collect. Protect the
unit against cool drafts of air.

Casing of Hot Dogs Burst. Too much steam is being
generated. Move the thermostat control to a lower
setting.

Buns too soggy or too dry. Too much steam or too
little steam will produce this condition. Control the
amount of steam by adjusting the thermostat control
as required. Also by adjusting the humidity control
lever located in the bun compartment under the
center cover.

Some buns are better adapted for steaming than
others, with some experimentation you will find the
one best suited to your needs.

MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS

Contact the factory, a service representative or a
local service company for service or required
maintenance.
