2.2. FILLING THE APPLIANCE
2.2.1. FILLING THE COOKER TANK
It is recommended that the cooker tank is filled with hot water. This will greatly decrease the time
it takes for the appliance to reach operating temperature. Refer to the following procedure to fill
the cook tank prior to operation.
1. Ensure that the drain valve is closed.
2. Fill the tank with water until the water reaches the water
level line(s).
3. This appliance is equipped with an automatic water level
maintaining system. To fill the tank with water, Press
the unit’s I/0 (ON/OFF) switch to the I (ON) position.
This will cause the tank to fill with water. The tank will continue to fill until the water level
reaches the level sensors. When both of the active water level sensors are covered the
solenoid valve will close stopping the flow of water. During normal operation the automatic
fill system will maintain the water level at the proper height.
NOTE: If the water control system turns on while the main burners are running, the main
burners will turn off. This is Normal and will not affect the operation of the appliance. When the
tank refills to the high level probe, the main burners will relight.
2.2.2. FILLING THE COOKER TANK WITHOUT THE AUTOMATIC LEVEL SYSTEM
Although the water fill system is completely automatic, the tank can be filled without putting the
appliance into full operational mode. To fill the tank without operating the appliance press the
rocker switch to the
symbol. Continue to hold down the switch until the appliance is
completely filled.
