COMPONENT TESTING
Exterior Panel Removal
WARNING
To prevent hazard in servicing the cooker, be
certain that the electrical disconnect circuit
breaker for the steamer is OFF before remov-
ing side panels.
Access to all internal plumbing and electrical assemblies
is from the right side. The right-side panel is removed by
removing the bottom screws from panel.
60-MINUTE TIMER
Timer Contacts
Defective timer contacts will result in failure of cooker
compartment to operate. When this occurs, remove the
side panel and proceed as follows:
1. Turn off power at external circuit breaker.
2. Disconnect all three wires from timer terminals.
3. Connect an ohmmeter between terminals 21 and 22.
4. Rotate timer dial beyond the “0 - Minute” point (any
setting) to obtain a reading of zero ohms on the ohm-
meter. If zero ohm reading cannot be obtained, timer
contacts are defective and the timer must be replaced.
5. Move ohmmeter leads to terminals 21 and 24.
6. Rotate timer dial to “0 - Minute” position. (An audible
click indicates correct position). If zero ohm reading
cannot be obtained, the timer is defective and must
be replaced.
7. Move ohmmeter leads to terminals 11 and 12.
8. Rotate the timer dial to the “CONSTANT STEAM” po-
sition. If zero ohm reading cannot be obtained, the
timer is defective and must be replaced.
9. Remove ohmmeter and replace all three leads on
timer terminals.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Timer Motor
A defective timer motor will cause continuous operation in
the TIME mode, with the timer dial failing to return to the
“0 - Minute” position.
To conrm timer motor condition, proceed as follows:
1. Carefully check motor wire leads and tighten loose
connections.
WARNING
Use care while working with control panel.
Terminals carry 240 Volts.
2. Turn on power to the steamer.
3. Set timer dial (any setting beyond “0 - Minute”). If op-
eration is correct, the motor will turn the dial toward
“0 - Minute”. If the motor fails to operate, it is defective
and the timer must be replaced.
4. Shut off power to the cooker.
Door Interlock Switch:
Malfunction of the cooker door interlock switch prevents
timer indicator lights from turning on and steam generator
from operating when the timer dial is set. If steam does
not enter the compartment and the cooking indicator light
fails to turn on with the door latch securely engaged, the
fault may be in the door interlock switch.
Proceed as follows:
1. Turn off power to the cooker.
2. Disconnect wires to the door switch terminals.
3. Connect an ohmmeter between the terminals of the
switch. The switch is marked “C” for common, “NC”
for normally closed and “NO” for normally open.
4. Actuate the switch by closing the cooking compart-
ment door. If a zero reading cannot be obtained be-
tween the C and NO terminals, the switch is defective
and must be replaced.
5. Remove the ohmmeter and replace the leads on
switch terminals.
Indicator Lights
If the cooker compartment functions correctly, with the
single exception that the indicator light fails to light during
operation, the fault is a defective indicator light. A “burned
out” or defective light is veried by using an AC voltmeter
at the leads, with input power on the selector switch in the
correct position for that timer, the timer set, and the door
latches closed. If 240 volts is present, the fault is in the
indicator light and requires replacement. If 240 volts is not
present, the fault is in the wiring or control components
(selector switch, timer or door switch).
Buzzer
If the buzzer does not sound at the termination of the
operator-selected timer setting (timer dial returned to “0
- Minute” position), the fault may be a defective buzzer.
Buzzer operation is veried using an AC voltmeter at
buzzer coil connections with input power on and selec-
tor switch and coinciding timer dial set at the “0 - Minute”
position. If voltage is 240 volts, the fault is in the buzzer,
which must be replaced. If 240 volts is not present, the
fault is in the wiring or control components (timer or selec-
tor switch).
Wiring
WARNING
Disconnect the power supply to the appliance
before cleaning or servicing.
Using an ohmmeter, wiring continuity between the con-
nections shown on the wiring diagram is readily veried.
This is best done in stages, removing only those wires
required for each continuity check. As each lead is re-
placed, it should be checked for evidence of corrosion,
and cleaned if necessary. All leads must be tightly at-
tached so as to provide a good electrical connection.
Door Gasket
Check gasket for cuts and replace if necessary.
Door Gasket Replacement
The cooking compartment door gaskets are made of a
silicone-type rubber material that is very durable but sub-
ject to wear during normal operation. Should the gasket
leak replace it.
1. Open the cooking compartment door.
2. Remove the six or eight screws from the gasket plate
in the door panel assembly.
3. Remove the gasket plate and the door gasket from
door panel.
4. Install the new door gasket to the door panel. Replace
the gasket plate and six or eight screws.
5. Gasket replacement is now complete.
Door may be difcult to close until gasket has compressed
to conform to opening. Firmly slam the door, leaving door
closed several hours or overnight will compress gasket.

ELEMENT BLOCK REPLACEMENT
1. Disconnect power supply.
2. Ensure the unit is cool and empty.
3. Remove the right side panel by removing two screws
near the base of the unit. Lift panel up and away to
remove and set aside.
4. Remove top cov er by removing two screws in back
of unit. Raise the cover to clear the vent and slide
towards the front of the unit to remove. Remove insu-
lation from top of cooker and set aside.
5. Tilt the unit to rest on it’s face using wooden supports
to steady the unit. Remove the leftlback panel by re-
moving screws from the base and sliding it towards
the back of the unit, upwards in this case and set
aside. Remove the insulation from the left side and
set aside.
6. Remove two screws that retain the component mount-
ing board, carefully supporting it and saving from
damage. Leave it rest at the side of the unit.
7. Remove the unit base by removing four screws near
the face of the unit and set aside. Remove the insula-
tion to expose the element plate.
8. Remove the failed element block and residual heat
sink compound
9. Apply about 4 ounces of heat sink compound with a
3/16” “V” and pitch of 112” notched trowel across the
width of the element block on the contact surface.
Mount the element block to the unit. Using plain at
washers, torque each nut to 100 inch pounds follow-
ing the recommended pattern. Start back at position
one removing the at washer and replace with two
beleville washers and torque to 45 inch pounds using
Loctite #271 thread locking adheasive. Repeat this for
each of the rest of the studs.
10. Reassemble the unit using steps 1 through 8 in re-
verse order.
