3.0 OPERATION (Continued)
DAILY OPERATION
Daily operation should consist of turning on the power switch and setting thermostat for the
desired temperature. The thermostat will cycle the burners on and off to maintain desired
temperature.
It is recommended the kettle be preheated prior to use. Milk or egg based products should be
placed in the kettle before heating however, to prevent sticking. The kettle is preheated when
the cooking light goes off the first time.
At the end of the day, or if the kettle will not be used for some time, shut the unit down by
turning the power switch to “OFF”.
Clean as required or on a daily basis. See “Cleaning” section under MAINTENANCE.
WARNING: When this appliance is installed with casters
and is connected to the supply piping by means of a
connector for moveable appliances, a restraint to prevent
damage to the connector or quick disconnect device should
have been installed. If disconnection of the restraint is
necessary, reconnect this restraint after the appliance has
been returned to its originally installed position.
After igniting the main burners, the spark ignitor acts as a flame sensor. If it does not detect
flame, due to gas interruption or excessive air draft, the main burner gas flow will be shut off.
The ignition module will then automatically try to relight the main burner in approximately 20
seconds, two additional times. The red cooking light will be on when burners are on and off
when burners are off.

Do not use salt to clean the kettle. This will scratch the surface.
If using salt water to cook shellfish, be sure to rinse and wash the kettle thoroughly after use.
Bring milk and egg products slowly up to temperature in a cold kettle to prevent product from
