temperature over 125°F / 52°C
can cause severe burns instantly
or death from scalding.

IMPORTANT
The temperature of the water in the steam
boiler and therefore of the tap(s) may
eventually be raised or lowered via the
pressurestat (please consult the Manual
for detailed instructions).
1) Starting the steam machine
a) Filling the boiler with water
Once the installation procedures have been
completed, it is necessary to fill the boiler
tank with water. Complete the following
procedure to properly fill the boiler tank.
Upon installation, the Modbar steam
module must be primed before use. This
is accomplished by the following steps.
• Ensure that filtered water is supplied
to the module
• Ensure that the power switch is in the
off position
• Ensure that the module power cable
is plugged into its appropriate power
source
• Turn the power switch
clockwise to place it in standby mode
• The module will begin to fill the
boiler. Once the maximum fill level
is achieved, the module will cease to
fill. When full, the sight glass will be
approximately half full of water
• At this point, it is safe to turn the
switch clockwise into operating mode.
2) Waiting for the Steam Machine to Heat to
Operating Temperature
During general use, the module is already
primed, and it is not necessary to prime
the system. To start the module, follow
these steps:
• Ensure that filtered water is supplied
to the module
• From the off position, turn the power
switch clockwise to place it into
operating mode
• At this point, the elements will begin
to heat. When each heat zone reaches
set temperature, the module is ready
for use.
3) Steaming after first installation
Once the first installation procedures are
counter-
finished, before proceeding with steam,
please follow these steps:
• Being careful to avoid burns, turn on
each steam wand for at least one minute.
