Important Safety
Information
Use the following guidelines for safe op-
eration of the unit.
yRead all instructions before
using equipment.
yFor your safety, the equipment is
furnished with a properly grounded
cord connector. Do not attempt to
defeat the grounded connector.
yInstall or locate the equipment only
for its intended use as described in
this manual. Do not use corrosive
chemicals in this equipment.
yDo not operate this equipment if
it has a damaged cord or plug, if
it is not working properly, or if it
has been damaged or dropped.
yThis equipment should be
serviced by qualied personnel
only. Contact Antunes Technical
Service for adjustment or repair.
yDo not block or cover any
openings on the unit.
yDo not immerse cord
or plug in water.
yKeep cord away from
heated surfaces.
yDo not allow cord to hang over
edge of table or counter.
yTurn the power o󰀨, unplug the
power cord, and allow unit to cool
down before performing any service
or maintenance on the unit.
yThe equipment should be grounded
according to local electrical codes
to prevent the possibility of electrical
shock. It requires a grounded
receptacle with separate electrical
lines, protected by fuses or circuit
breaker of the proper rating.
yAll electrical connections
must be in accordance with
local electrical codes and any
other applicable codes.
yDo not clean this appliance
with a water jet.
Warnings
Be advised of the following warnings when
operating and performing maintenance on
this unit.
yIf the supply cord is damaged,
it must be replaced by the
manufacturer or its service agent
or a similarly qualied person
in order to avoid a hazard.
yDo not modify the power supply
cord plug. if it does not t the
outlet, have a proper outlet
installed by a qualied electrician.
yDo not use an extension
cord with this appliance.
yElectrical ground is required
on this appliance.
yCheck with a qualied electrician if
you are in doubt as to whether the
appliance is properly grounded.
yIf a chemical cleaner is used,
be sure it is safe to use on cast
aluminum. Observe all precautions
and warnings on product label.
yInspection, testing, and
repair of electrical equipment
should only be performed by
qualied service personnel.
yThis equipment is to be installed
to comply with the basic plumbing
code of the Building O󰀩cials
and Code Administrators, Inc.
(BOCA) and the Food Service
Sanitation Manual of the Food
and Drug Administration (FDA).
yOn direct water hook-up units,
water pressure must not exceed
30 psi (2.1 kg/cm2 or 207 kPa).
Higher water pressures will cause
poor performance, excessive
condensation, and ooding of the
Steam Generator. To reduce water
pressure, install a water pressure
regulator and set water pressure
to 20–30 psi (1.4–2.1 kg/cm2
or 138–207 kPa). Contact your
equipment supplier to purchase
a Water Pressure Regulator.
yTo ensure proper steaming
characteristics, some calcium/
mineral deposits must be present
on the generator surface. If, during
cleaning, the surface does become
free of calcium/mineral deposits,
add plain tap water to the surface
and allow it to boil o󰀨. This may
have to be repeated several
times to ensure proper steaming
characteristics by creating a thin
layer of deposits on the surface.
yDo not use a sanitizing solution
or abrasive materials. The use
of these may cause damage
to the stainless steel nish.
yChlorides or phosphates in cleaning
agents (e.g. bleach, sanitizers,
degreasers or detergents) could
cause permanent damage to
stainless steel equipment. The
damage is usually in the form
of discoloration, dulling of metal
surface nish, pits, voids, holes, or
cracks. This damage is permanent
and not covered by warranty.
yThe following tips are recommended
for maintenance of your
stainless steel equipment:
yAlways use soft, damp cloth for
cleaning, rinse with clear water and
wipe dry. When required, always rub
in direction of metal polish lines.
yRoutine cleaning should
be done daily with soap,
detergent, and water.
yStains and spots should be
sponged using a vinegar solution.
yFinger marks and smears should be
rubbed o󰀨 using soap and water.
yHard water spots should be
removed using a vinegar solution.
yThe appliance is NOT to be used
by persons (including children) with
reduced physical, sensory or mental
capacities, or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they have been
given supervision or instruction.
yChildren should be supervised
to ensure that they do NOT
play with the appliance.

Installation
NOTE: When placing the unit, make
sure to provide at least 3 inches
of space on all sides of the unit.
1. Remove unit and all packing materi-
als from shipping carton.
2. The unit should come with the items
listed below:
yOwner’s Manual
yInlet Hose Assembly (DFW/
DFWT/DFWF-200/250 only).
NOTE: If any parts are missing or dam-
aged, contact Antunes Techni-
cal Service IMMEDIATELY at
1-877-392-7854 or 1-630-784-
1000.
3. Remove all packing materials and
protective coverings from the unit.
4. Remove and wash the Pan, Trivet,
and Di󰀨user in soap and water. Rinse
with clean water and allow to air dry.
NOTE: The steam generator surface
(Figure 6) will have a white
coating of articial lime depos-
its. This coating is necessary
for steaming characteristics.
5. Wipe all surfaces of the unit with a hot
damp cloth.
NOTE: Do NOT use a dripping wet
cloth. Wring out before use.
6. Re-install Pan, Trivet, and Pan Dif-
fuser.
7. With the power o󰀨, place the unit on a
sturdy, level surface.
8. Ensure the line voltage corresponds
to the stated voltage on the specica-
tion label and power cord warning
tag.
9. Connect the unit to the power supply.
Plumbing
DFW models are designed to use cold
tap water. Distilled water may be used to
reduce calcium/mineral deposit buildup
and reduce maintenance costs.
MODELS
DFW/DFWT-100/150
The DFW/DFWT-100/150 models have a
self-contained water tank. To ll the tank:
1. Open the tank cover on the top of the
unit.
NOTE: Make sure the lter inside the
tank is installed properly.
2. Pour in cold tap water. The tank will
hold approximately 3 quarts (2.81
liters). Do not overll the tank.
3. Close the tank cover.
NOTE: Allow top cover to remain open
overnight. Empty the unit of
water overnight. Do not leave
unit lled with water overnight.
MODELS
DFW/DFWT/DFWF-200/250
The DFW/DFWT/DFWF-200/250 models
require a direct cold water hookup. A water
inlet hose and strainer assembly (Figure
1) is supplied.
Incoming water is controlled by a normally
closed solenoid valve located inside the
steamer’s electrical housing.
1. Turn o󰀨 the water valve (not supplied)
that providesw water to the unit.
2. Connect the 1/4" (6.5 mm) ID exible
tubing to the outlet side of the water
pressure regulator and secure using
the worm clamp.
NOTE: A Water Pressure Regulator
must be installed. Failure to do
so will result in poor steaming
and possible ooding. For a
single steamer, use Water Pres-
sure Regulator P/N 7000314.
For two adjacent steamers, use
Water Pressure Regulator P/N
7000235.
3. Turn the water valve on.
4. Over a bucket, press and hold the
white plastic tip on the Quick Discon-
nect Insert (Figure 1) until a good,
steady water ow is noted (this will
purge all air out of the line).
5. Release and note the pressure on
the water pressure regulator gauge.
It should read 20-25 psi. Adjust the
pressure by pulling the black knob
upwards and turning it clockwise to
increase or counter-clockwise to de-
crease the water pressure. Push the
knob down to lock it in place.
NOTE: When adjusting the knob, you
must relieve the existing pres-
sure by pressing the plastic tip
on the Quick Disconnect Insert
for 3 seconds. This allows the
newly set pressure to register
on the gauge. Repeat this until
the gauge reads 20–25 psi.
6. Push the Quick Disconnect Insert into
the tting at the rear of the unit until it
clicks into place (Figure 1).

Water pressure must not exceed 30 psi (2.1 kg/

tor, and set water pressure to 20–25 psi (1.4–1.7
kg/cm2or 138–172 kPa).
