that will automatically shut down all burners if the sensor probe fails, to avoid overheating
the steamer.
II) High Limit shutoff: If the steamer runs dry the burners will shut down.
III) Overflow: an overflow standpipe incorporated into the reservoir drain allows water to flow
out the back of the steamer in case of a waterfill malfunction.
WARNING: A blocked overflow and drain could allow hot water to flow onto the countertop or floor
which can cause slippery conditions. Modifying the steamer to operate without the overflow standpipe
could cause dangerous situations and will void the warranty.

IV) High water sensor: Two water level sensors are located on the lower back side interior
of the steamer. The lower sensor activates the waterfill mechanism. The upper sensor will
shut off water flow if the lower sensor malfunctions. It is important that both sensors are
kept clean so that the stainless part is shiny.
WARNING: Failure to keep both water level sensors clean might result in hot water flowing out the
rear overflow or the front door of the steamer.
V) Door open safety switch: There is a safety switch built into the doorframe that shuts
down burners, waterfill and indicator lights when the door is opened. Once the door is
closed, all functions return. If the door is left open, nothing will happen when the mode
selector switch is turned. T

VI) Time delay relay: The steamer has two timers built into the electrical system to shut the
unit down should the water level system fail. When the steamer is first turned on and the
reservoir is empty two countdown timers will begin to count. If it takes longer than 35
seconds for the level of the water to come into contact with the lower water sensor probe,
the heaters and heating light will turn off. After the water comes in contact with the lower
probe the heat and heating light will come back on.
