5 TESTINGPROCEDURE
5.1 Bubblingtest
SR-TEG18 , SR-TEG10
Input the pan in the main body, and lightly rotate the pan clockwise and counter clockwise to settle the
pan on the heating plate properly.
1. Fill water unit the center area of the pan is dipped, and close the lid. Then turn on the switch.
2. When it begins boiling to produce steam. Remove the lid and immediately check the bubbling
condition on the pan bottom.
3. As show in the right figure.
Bubbles generated through out the circumference of the pan bottom...............Proper
Bubbles does not generate on more than one quater part of the pan bottom
circumference....................Improper
If it is improper, it may result from the insfficient contact between the pan bottom and the heating plate.
Check the pan bottom and the heating plate for foreign material remainder. Clean off the foreign material
or replace the parts.
5.2 Evaporation test
1. Check that bubbling is proper, and open the lid and place a weight.
Note To prevent plastic parts from deformation caused by steam, be sure to open the lid fully.
Place a weight so that its gravitycenter may be aligened at the center
2. Fully cover 2 to 3 sheet of tissue paper (gauze is also applicable) on the pan bottom, and continuously
flow electric current.
Notr To prevent tissue paper from floating because of bubbling, previously hole the paper.
3. Water on the pan bottom is completely evaporated to be empty. This timimg is an follows :
Within 1 minute before the boiling switch is turned off.
