Deliming (BCXĆ14 units only)
Deliming of the steam generator is the single most
important preventative maintenance task. Lime
will build up inside the steam generator, reducing
efficiency and causing damage to the level control
system. This oven comes equipped with a Delime
lamp to indicate when the steam generator needs
to be delimed. The Delime lamp will flash when the
steam generator has been run for the preset interĆ
val. The flashing Delime lamp does not impede the
operation of the oven, you can use the oven norĆ
mally when the lamp is flashing. You may choose
the best time to start the deliming process.
WARNING!!
Problems caused by insufficient deliming
are not covered by the warranty.
Be sure to use a nonĆdiluted deliming agent such
as Lime Away" by EcoĆLabs or Lime Out", by US
Chemical.
WARNING!!
Deliming solutions are hazardous and
can cause burns to the skin and eyes.
Wear protective clothing and eyewear.
