ELECTRIC STATIONARY KETTLES
OPERATION
: The kettle and its parts
are hot. Use care when operating, clean-
ing or servicing the kettle.
VENTING
While the kettle is cold, check the vacuum/pressure
gauge. The gauge should be in the vacuum zone
measuring between 20 to 30 in. Hg (84 to 100kPa).
If not, there is air in the jacket and it must be
removed by venting for proper heating. Perform
the VENTING procedure located in the
MAINTENANCE section of this manual.
RESERVOIR JACKET
WATER LEVEL CHECK
During use, the reservoir water level must be
maintained high enough to submerge the
heating elements. If the low water light is
illuminated during use, perform the FILLING
THE RESERVOIR JACKET procedure located
in the MAINTENANCE section of this manual.
DAILY OPERATION
1. Press the power switch to the ON position.
2. Preheat the kettle by placing the thermostat
knob at Simmer/Boil (desired setting) and
wait until the temperature light cycles off.
Food products with milk or egg base should
be placed into a cold kettle before cooking.
Avoid sudden contact of these food
products to a hot kettle surface because
they stick to the surface.
3. Pour the food to be cooked into the kettle.
TILTING KETTLES
The low water indicator light (red) should not
be lit when kettle is in upright position during
operation. This light indicates that the elements
have been automatically shut off by the kettle’s
safety circuity. It is, however, normal for the
low water light (red light) to come on when the
kettle is in a tilited posistion.
