3.1.1Introduction

The Spaghetti Magic III computer allows the operator to specify a specific cook time in minutes and seconds, then initiate a cooking cycle. The computer is configured for both automatic filling (AutoFill) and automatic skimming (Autoskim) features.

The BOIL mode is used when actually cooking pasta.

The SIMMER mode feature maintains the water temperature just below boiling (approximately 195ºF/90.6ºC), which conserves energy and water. This feature is designed to keep the cooker in standby.

The SKIM feature, when selected, adds water for approximately 3 seconds once a minute. It causes the water to overflow into the drain, carrying floating starch with it. (A buildup of starch reduces the efficiency of the cooker and can cause erroneous temperature and water level sensing.)

LOW WATER SENSING automatically de-energizes the heating element if the water in the cookpot drops too low. When the water level in the cookpot is below the sensor probes, 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 level is low. With this automatic filling feature, the water level does not have to be continuously monitored. The cookpot always has the correct amount of water.
