OPERATING
THE KETT E
1. Before turning kettle on, read the Vacuum/Pressure
auge. The gauges needle should be in the green
zone. Once heated, the kettle's normal maximum
operating pressure is approximately 10-12 psi,
while cooking a water base product.
2. Ensure that the electrical service to the kettle is
turned on at the fused disconnect switch.
Temperature Range Chart
3. Preheat the kettle by turning the ON/OFF
Switch/Solid State Temperature Control to the
desired temperature setting (see above
"Temperature Range Chart"). The Heat Indicator
Light ( reen) will remain lit, indicating the burner is
lit, until the temperature setting is reached. When
the green light goes off, the heaters are off, and
preheating is complete.
NOTE: When cooking egg and milk products, the kettle
should not be preheated, as products of this nature
adhere to hot cooking surfaces. These types of food
should be placed in the kettle before heating is begun.
4. Place food product into the kettle. The Heat
Indicator Light ( reen) will cycle on and off
indicating the elements are cycling on and off to
maintain the set temperature.
NOTE: Do not fill kettle above
recommended level marked on
outside of kettle.
NOTE: 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 circuit. It is, however, normal for the red light
to come on when the kettle is in a tilted position.
5. When cooking is completed place ON/OFF
Switch/Solid State Temperature Control to the
"OFF' position.
6. Pour the contents of the kettle into an
appropriate container by tilting the kettle
forward. Care should be taken to pour slowly
enough to avoid splashing off the product.
NOTE: As with cleaning food soil from any cookware,
an important part of kettle cleaning is to prevent food
from drying on. For this reason, cleaning should be
completed immediately after cooked foods are
removed.
APPROXIMATE BOI ING TIMES
Approximate Boiling Times
The accompanying chart shows approximate times
required for electric kettles of various capacities to boil
water. The ON/OFF Switch/Solid State Temperature
Control must be set at "10" (Max.) throughout the heatup
period. Water will boil about 1/3 faster if the kettle is
filled only to the outer steam jacket's welded seam,
resulting in a kettle filled to 2/3 capacity.
MARINE OCK
Your unit is equipped with a marine lock to prevent
accidental tilting. The following procedure should be
used to tilt the kettle.
1.
rasp the tilt handle.
2.
Hold the latch down to unlock tilting mechanism.
3.
Pull the handle to tilt kettle.
4.
To lock, return the kettle to its upright position and
push handle back.
NOTE: Inspect lock daily to ensure it is free moving and
does not bind or stick. Clean lock if necessary (see
Cleaning Instructions for details
