Frequently Asked Questions - 177STE3MG Avantco
How do I descale the Avantco 177STE3MG steamer?
To descale, fill the water pan with a mixture of vinegar and water (1:3 ratio). Run the steamer for 15 minutes, then let it sit for 30 minutes. Drain and rinse thoroughly with clean water. Repeat monthly to prevent mineral buildup.
What type of water should I use?
Use distilled or deionized water to reduce scale formation. Tap water with high mineral content will cause buildup and reduce efficiency.
Can I use the steamer for vegetables?
Yes, it is ideal for vegetables. Arrange in a single layer in pans, add water to the reservoir, set timer to 10-15 minutes depending on density. Check for doneness.
Can I steam meat in this unit?
Yes, it can cook meats like chicken, fish, and beef. Use a pan with cover to retain moisture. Adjust cooking time based on thickness; typically 20-30 minutes for chicken breasts.
How do I clean the stainless steel exterior?
Wipe with a soft cloth and mild soapy water. For stubborn stains, use a stainless steel cleaner. Always rub with the grain to avoid scratches.
What is the maximum water level?
Fill the water pan to the indicated MAX fill line inside the reservoir. Overfilling may cause water to spill out during operation.
How does the timer work?
Turn the timer dial clockwise to set minutes (up to 60). For continuous operation, turn past the 60 mark to the 'ON' position. The steamer will automatically shut off when the timer ends.
What should I do if the steamer is not heating?
Check that the unit is plugged in and the circuit breaker is not tripped. Ensure the water pan is filled and properly seated. If still not heating, the heating element may need replacement. Contact Avantco support.
How to prevent mineral buildup?
Use softened or filtered water. Descale regularly (every 1-3 months). After each use, drain and dry the reservoir to reduce scale formation.
Is the Avantco 177STE3MG NSF certified?
Yes, this model is NSF certified for commercial use. It meets strict standards for public health protection. It is also cETLus listed for US and Canada.
