MODELS
FCT-4CE - 4 gallon (16 liters), tilting electric countertop kettle

VENTING
Check vacuum/pressure gauge when kettle is cold.
Gauge should be in the vacuum zone between 25-30 In.
Hg. If not, air is present which must be vented (removed)
for proper heating. Use the following procedures to vent
air.
1. Place power switch in ON position; kettle empty.
2. Set temperature control thermostat to ‘10’. Heat kettle
until heat indicator light goes off.
3. Using a 7/16” wrench, open bleed vent one full turn
for 10 seconds and close.
4. Cool kettle. Check for proper vacuum of 25-30 In. Hg.
If reading is not low enough, repeat entire procedure,
steps 1-3.
FILLING-JACKET RESERVOIR
The reservoir water level must be maintained at or above
the minimum needed to submerge the heating elements.
If the low water light turns on during use, the water level
is not adequate and the low water protection control has
automatically shut off the heating elements.
Use the following procedure to ll reservoir. Check vacuum/pressure gauge to ensure that there is no pressure in
kettle when adding water.
1. Turn thermostat and power switch to OFF position.
2. Remove 7/16” vent tting from bleed vent on back of
kettle. Insert a funnel into vent opening and add prescribed volume of water. For 6 gallon models, add 50
ounces (1.5 liters). For 10 and 12 gallon models, add
100 ounces (3 liters).
3. Replace and tighten vent tting.
4. With kettle in upright position, the low water light
should be off at this time. If so, follow venting procedure to vent air from reservoir Venting. If low water
light is not off, repeat Filling Jacket Reservoir.
CAUTION
Before adding water to the reservoir, water
supply should be analyzed to ensure that
hardness is no greater than 2.0- grains per
gallon and pH level is within the range of 7.0-
8.5. Water which fails to meet these standards
should be treated, or ionized distilled water
with sodium used. EQUIPMENT FAILURE
CAUSED BY INADEQUATE WATER QUALITY
IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.
