USING THE GAS CONTROL (Kettles with Electronic Ignition)
Units equipped with electronic ignition do not require "lighting" the pilot with a match.
A.Lighting
1.Turn thermostat to lowest position and turn the power switch OFF.
2.Open control panel access door.
3.Turn dial on combination control to ON position by rotating the control knob counterclockwise to "stop" on black line. Depress control knob completely and release, then continue to rotate to ON. (NOTE: Any gas service valves exterior to the unit should be open.)
4.Turn power switch ON.
After step 4 there will be a 2 minute and 10 second delay before the kettle will attempt ignition. At this time the spark igniter will begin sparking at the pilot until the pilot is ignited, or for 50 seconds (an audible clicking sound will be evident).
After a total of 3 minutes the unit will lockout, shutting off all gas although the spark igniter will continue to spark. When the pilot is ignited the spark igniter will automatically stop and within 30 to 60 seconds main burner gas will come on if the thermostat is turned on. New installations (where there may be a considerable amount of air in the gas line) may require the unit to be turned off and immediately back on numerous times after each 3 minute lockout period until the air is purged from the gas line.
B.Shut Down
1.Standby
a.Turn power switch OFF.
2.Complete
a.Turn power switch OFF.
b.Turn dial on combination control from ON to black line, depress knob slightly and continue rotating to OFF.
c.Place thermostat on lowest setting.
d.Turn any main gas service valves supplying gas to OFF.
C.Relighting
1.Turn power switch ON.
It should be noted that the pilot and electronic ignition do not cycle with the thermostat. A standing pilot is automatically established and monitored each time the power switch is turned on. If the pilot is ever extinguished by a momentary external interruption, the spark igniter will automatically relight it after a 2 minute and 10 second purge period without disturbing the cooking cycle, unless lockout occurs.
