MODEL C24EA - GENERAL GENERAL INTRODUCTION This manual is applicable to the models and ML numbers listed on the cover page. Procedures apply to all models unless specified otherwise. Steam Cooking Convection steamers offer an efficient way to produce many foods in either small portions or larger batches. Convection steam cooking will steam cook fresh foods or will steam defrost and cook frozen foods providing the maximum color, flavor and nutritional value with the least expenditure of energy and labor.
MODEL C24EA - GENERAL Other chemical properties in water supplies can also affect good steam generation and vary from within each state and locality. TOOLS • Standard set of hand tools. The water level probes in the steam generator use ions in the water to detect the water level. Do not use fully demineralized or de-ionized water since it is non-conductive and the water level can not be detected.
