used, add ⅛-cup of baking soda to the water each time the cookpot is emptied and refilled. NOTE:

Do not use deliming solution to clean these units. Use of deliming solution will damage all stainless steel parts.)

On units equipped with the Autoskim feature, a logic circuit in the controller automatically opens the solenoid valve for three seconds every minute. If the autofill feature is working properly, failure of the autoskim feature will be due to a malfunctioning controller and not the solenoid valve. (Proper operation of the autofill feature can be determined by draining water from the cookpot until the water level is below the shorter of the two water-level sensors. If the solenoid valve opens and then closes when the water in the cookpot again reaches the sensor, the autofill feature is working properly.)

1.4.4 How the Water Heating System Works

To prevent lighting the burners when there is no water in the cookpot, these units are equipped with

alow-water-level sensor (the longer of the two water-level sensors). This sensor must be grounded by contact with water in the cookpot before the control circuitry will allow firing of the burners. Starch or lime build-up on the low-water-level sensor may keep the sensor from grounding, therefore always make sure the sensor is clean and its lead (Pin 7 of the controller wiring harness) is firmly connected. Also, in order for the sensor to ground, there must be some mineral content in the water (pure water is non-conductive). Consequently, the unit will not operate correctly with distilled, highly filtered, or deionized water. If water of these types is used, add ⅛-cup of baking soda to the water each time the cookpot is emptied and refilled. NOTE: Do not use deliming solution to clean these units. Use of deliming solution will damage all stainless steel parts.)

In addition to the low-water-level sensor discussed above, the water heating system has three more parts: the electronic ignition system, the temperature probe, and the controller.

The electronic ignition system controls firing of the burners. See Page 1-3 for a complete description of this system.

The temperature probe is used only when the unit is in the simmer mode. When the simmer mode is selected, logic circuits in the controller monitor the temperature of the water. When the water temperature drops below the simmer setpoint, the controller closes the heat relay, causing the burners to fire. When the water temperature reaches the setpoint, the controller opens the heat relay, extinguishing the burners. This process repeats as required to maintain the temperature at the setpoint programmed into the controller.

The controller is the interface between the operator and the other components of the equipment. In the water heating system, its function is to control the firing of the burners.
