C24EA SERIES ELECTRIC CONVECTION STEAMERS
WARNING: DISCONNECT THE
ELECTRICAL POWER TO
THE MACHINE AND FOLLOW LOCKOUT /
TAGOUT PROCEDURES BEFORE
CLEANING.
COOKING COMPARTMENT DRAINS
Keep compartment drains running freely. Inspect
compartment drains daily for blockage. Remove
any particles or debris from the perforated
strainer daily (or more often if needed).
After cooking greasy foods or seafood, close the
doors and operate each compartment for 25 to 30
minutes to flush any residual grease and oils
down the compartment drain. Make a solution of
warm water and non-chloride/chlorine/bleach
based detergent and pour
1
/2 gallon (1.9 liters) of
it down each compartment drain. Rinse by pouring
1
/2 gallon (1.9 liters) of hot water down each
compartment drain.
DRAINING THE GENERATOR
To prevent malfunction of controls and clogging,
it is essential to drain the generator every day.
This will flush out any accumulated minerals
from the feed water. It will also aid in preventing
internal scale buildup which would interfere with
proper generator operation. Failure to drain the
generator every day will void the steamer
warranty. The presence of minerals in
suspension is indicated by a murky or milky
condition in the first portion of the water drained.
WARNING: THE WATER BEING DRAINED IS
HOT AND UNDER PRESSURE.
USE CARE
WHEN CLEANING OR SERVICING THE
GENERATOR.
After the generator has been in operation, turn
the unit off with the power switch located on the
bottom cooking compartment to drain the
generator. The generator will drain for
approximately 5 minutes, removing sediment,
scale and lime buiIdup in the generator.
COMPARTMENTS
Wash the inside of the compartment with a
solution of warm water and non-chloride
detergent. Rinse with warm water.
Once a week, thoroughly clean the exposed
surfaces (sides, front, door and top) with a damp
cloth and polish with a clean cloth. To remove
discolorations, use a nonabrasive cleaner.
DOOR GASKETS
Clean the gasket-sealing surface of the
compartment doors to remove food acids for
maximum gasket life. Do not use any solvents or
sharp instruments. Wash with a cloth moistened
in a solution of mild detergent and warm water.
Rinse with a fresh cloth moistened with warm
water to remove all traces of detergent.
Wipe dry with a clean cloth. Never apply food
oils or petroleum lubricants directly to the door
gasket. Petroleum-based solvents and
lubricants will reduce gasket life.
LEAVE COMPARTMENT DOORS OPEN
Leave the compartment doors slightly open
when the steamer is not in use. When the
compartment is idle, never latch the door and
apply pressure to the door gasket. Leaving the
gasket under pressure can cause permanent
deformation and reduce gasket life.
GUIDELINES FOR MAINTAINING
STAINLESS STEEL SURFACES
There are four things that will break down
stainless steel and allow corrosion to develop:
1) Abrasion
2) Deposits
3) Water
4) Chlorides.
