To ensure that the vat is free of any contamination, the vat must be 
boiled out before first use.

water and 1 cup of detergent. 

 

2.

 

Place the unit into operation in accordance with Section 3.4. 

 

3.

 

Press the 30-minute timer key. Allow the unit to go through two simmer cycles.

power switch. It must be 
off during draining and 
cleaning to ensure the 
vat doesn’t refill unex-
pectedly.

Use extreme caution if draining hot 
water. Severe burns can be caused 
by hot water and steam. Follow all 
restaurant safety procedures.
