3.0 OPERATION CAUTION: If you smell gas during the lighting procedure, immediately shut off the gas supply until the leak has been corrected. WARNING: In the event of main burner ignition failure, a 5 minute purge period must be observed prior to re-establishing ignition source. - Page 12 3.0 OPERATION (Continued) At this time the spark igniter will begin sparking at the burner. If after 4 seconds the burner does not light, the control will attempt to relight the burner two additional times at an interval of about 20 seconds.
- Page 13 This light is on whenever the main burner flames are on. 3. (Amber) Low Water Light All kettles are supplied with sufficient distilled water in the pressurized jacket. If at any time the water level falls below that required for proper operation, the kettle will not heat and this light will come on.
- Page 14 3.0 OPERATION (Continued) DAILY OPERATION Daily operation should consist of turning on the power switch and setting thermostat for the desired temperature. The thermostat will cycle the burners on and off to maintain desired temperature. It is recommended the kettle be preheated prior to use. Milk or egg based products should be placed in the kettle before heating however, to prevent sticking.
- Page 15 adhering to the sides. When preparing milk-based products do not preheat the kettle. When planning actual cooking capacity, allow room at top for stirring without spilling. When preparing puddings from a mix, place the powder in a cold kettle, add a small amount of liquid, and stir to form a thin paste.

Wiring diagrams for the unit are located in a small envelope affixed to the rear side of the front control panel. Unit KLS-80G and KLS-100G MANIFOLD PRESSURE Natural Gas - 4 inches W.C. GAS PRESSURE REGULATOR The gas pressure regulator is an integral part of the combination gas control located just behind the lower front access door. - Page 22 When pressure has been correctly adjusted turn unit off. Remove pressure indicating instrument and replace the 1/8" NPT plug in manifold. Replace regulator cap and close access door. THERMOSTAT The thermostat has been factory set and should not require adjustment. Adjustment may be made if an operating pressure deficiency has been determined and that the thermostat is the cause.
- Page 23 5. Pressure in kettle (read pressure gauge on front panel) should reach a maximum of 30 psi and pressure relief valve should not open. Kettle pressure may rise 2 or 3 psi even after burners shut down. 6. Relief valve should not open when kettle pressure is 30 psi. 7.
- Page 24 RE-ESTABLISHING VACUUM Periodically check pressure gauge when kettle is cold. Reading should be in green vacuum zone (below 0 psi). Otherwise air is present and proper heating will not occur. Use the following procedure to remove air and re-establish vacuum: With the kettle empty, turn the thermostat knob to the highest temperature.
