ard. Refer to the electrical requirements on the serial tag located on the operator side of the unit.
14. Turn the switch on and set the thermostat control on the highest setting until steam is generated.
15. For normal operation, set the thermostat control in the center of the range between the highest and lowest tem-
perature (130°F).
16. Place hot dogs in the small compartment and buns on the wire rack in the large compartment. Arrange the hot
dogs and buns so that there is enough room for circulation of steam.
17. To control the amount of steam in the bun compartment, use the adjustable humidity control lever located in the
bun compartment under the wire rack.

19. Add hot water when necessary to maintain the water level. Do not allow the unit to burn dry. If you accidentally
run it dry, turn off and allow the unit to completely cool before adding water. Adding water to a dry unit while it is
still hot could cause damage to the elements.
