height of your home above sea level. If the water is boiling
too vigorously or not vigorously enough, you can set the
boiling point.

The boiling point is set to setting 3 by default. If your
home is at an elevation between 650 and 1300 ft. (200 -
400 m) above sea level, there is no need to change the
boiling point. If not, choose the correct setting from the
following table according to your altitude.
