LOW WATER SENSING automatically closes the gas valve (thereby extinguishing the burner
flame) if the water in the cookpot drops too low. When the water level in the cookpot is below the
low-water sensor, such as when draining and cleaning the cookpot, the controller display will read LO.
NORMAL WATER LEVEL SENSING, on units configured with the Autofill feature,
automatically adds water during or after a cooking cycle if the water in the cookpot drops to a level
lower than approximately 1¼-inch (32 mm) below the overflow drain. With this automatic filling
feature, the water level does not have to be continuously monitored. The cookpot always has the
correct amount of water.
FAHRENHEIT OR CELSIUS TEMPERATURE DISPLAY
There are two versions of the SMS Controller: one that can be toggled between Fahrenheit and
Celsius temperature display, and one that cannot. To determine which version you have, turn the
controller off by pressing the power
switch. The display will go blank. Press the Simmer
(right thermometer icon) switch. If Code appears in the display, the temperature display can be
changed. If not, the display cannot be changed.
1. If Code appears in the display, press 1, 6, 5, 8. The display will be toggled from Fahrenheit to
Celsius or from Celsius to Fahrenheit.
2. Press the Boil (left thermometer icon) switch to display the cookpot temperature. If an F
follows the temperature, the display is in Fahrenheit; if a C follows the temperature, the display is
in Celsius.
3.2 Operating Instructions
Before turning the cooker on, ensure that:
•
the unit is connected to the water supply.
•
the water supply is turned on
•
the unit is plugged in to an appropriate outlet.
•
the electrical power supply is turned on
•
the gas supply is turned on.
3.2.1 Start-up Procedure
CAUTION
If this is the first time the unit is being used after installation, refer also to
Section 3.2.3, Boiling Out the Cookpot.
1. Press the power switch to the ON position. If the cooker is equipped with the Autofill option,
the cookpot will automatically begin to fill with water. If not, manually fill the cookpot using the
faucet until the water level is above the upper water level sensor located at the left front of the
cookpot as you face the unit. (On units with Autofill, the water will automatically shut off when
the water in the cookpot has reached the correct level.)
