LATCH

marine lock to prevent accidental tilting. The following procedure should be used to tilt the kettle.

1. Grasp the tilt handle.

Vacuum/Pressure Gauge (2). The gauge's needle should be in the green zone. If the needle is in the "VENT AIR" zone, follow Kettle Venting Instructions.

3.Turn the kettle's ON/OFF Switch/Solid State Temperature Control (5) to "1" (Min.). The Heat Indicator Light (Green) (6) should remain lit, indicating the element is on, until the set temperature is reached (130°F/54°C). Then the green light will cycle on and off, indicating the element is cycling on and off to maintain temperature.

4.Tilt the kettle forward. After a few seconds the Low Water Indicator Light (Red) (4) should be lit when the kettle is in a tilted position. This light indicates that the element has automatically been shut off by the kettle's safety circuit. This is a normal condition when the kettle is in a tilted position.

5.Raise the kettle to the upright position. The Low Water Indicator Light (Red) (4) should go out when the kettle is upright.

6.Turn the ON/OFF Switch/Solid State Temperature Control (5) to "10" (Max.) and allow the kettle to preheat. The green light should remain on until the set temperature (260°F/127°C) is reached. Then the green light will cycle ON and OFF, indicating the element is cycling ON and OFF to maintain temperature. Fill the kettle with cold water to the steam jacket’s welded seam. Refer to the Temperature Range Chart for the time required to bring the water to a boil.

7.When all testing is complete, empty the kettle and turn the ON/OFF Switch/Solid State Temperature Control (5) to the “OFF” position.

CLEANING

After installation the kettle must be thoroughly cleaned and sanitized prior to cooking. See Cleaning Instructions.

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.

3.Preheat the kettle by turning the ON/OFF Switch/Solid State Temperature Control (5) to the desired temperature setting (see above "Temperature Range Chart"). The Heat Indicator Light (Green) (6) will remain lit, indicating the element is on, until the temperature setting is reached. When the green light goes off, the elements 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 (Green) (6) 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) (4) 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 turn ON/OFF Switch/Solid State Temperature Control (5) 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 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 heat-up 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.

3. Use alkaline, alkaline chlorinated or non-chloride containing cleaners.

While many traditional cleaners are loaded with chlorides, the industry is providing an ever-increasing choice of non-chloride cleaners. If you are not sure of chloride content in the cleaner used, contact your cleaner supplier. If your present cleaner contains chlorides, ask your supplier if they have an alternative. Avoid cleaners containing quaternary salts; it also can attack stainless steel and cause pitting and rusting.

To learn more about chloride-stress corrosion and how to prevent it, contact the equipment manufacturer or cleaning materials supplier.
