WARNING 

Water must completely cover the heat tubes 
at all times while appliance is on. 

CAUTION 

This appliance is not designed for cooking 

with oil.  Fill with potable water only. 

WARNING 

During operation there is an open flame 

inside this appliance. The unit may get hot 

enough to set near by materials on fire. Keep 

the area around the appliance free from 

combustibles. 

WARNING 

If pilot extinguishes, wait 5 minutes before attempting to relight the pilot to allow any excess gas to dissipate. 

1.8. INITIAL 

ADJUSTMENTS 

After your appliance has been properly installed as described in the installation section of this manual, it will need to 
be adjusted to ensure that it will perform as designed. A qualified person must perform these adjustments. 
 

To perform these adjustments the following tools will be needed: 

•  Manometer(WC”)  • Digital Thermometer (Temperature Probe) 

• Voltmeter 

 
1.8.1.  FILLING THE APPLIANCE 
Refer to the following procedure to fill the cook 
tank prior to operation. 
 

1.  Ensure that the drain valve handle(1) is closed. 
 
2.  Fill the tank with water until the water reaches

 

the water level line, approx. 12 Gals.. 
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 

1.8.2.   LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS 

 

Refer to the following instructions to light the 

 appliance.

 

 
1.  Open the shut off valve (2) for each cooking appliance. 

 

2.  Make sure that the appliance is turned OFF, the digital control will display the word “OFF”. If there is 

nothing in the controller’s display, make sure the appliance is plugged in to a grounded outlet. 

 
3.  Turn the gas valve control knob (3) to the “ON” position. Press the On/Off (I/O) button (4), on the 

Digital control once to light the appliance. The matchless ignition system will automatically light the 
pilot (5). The first time you start the unit excess air may have to be purged from the gas lines, this may 
cause the ignition control to exceed the 90 second ignition cycle. If you hear the ticking of the pilot 
stop, turn off the digital control by pressing and holding the (I/O) key (4) for 2 second(s). 

 

4.  If the pilot (5) goes out, or does not ignite, wait 5 minutes and repeat step 3. If after three tries the pilot 

will not remain lit, refer to the operator troubleshooting section of this manual. 

 

5.  Once a pilot flame has been established, the digital control will automatically start the heating cycle. 

 

6.  The main burners will light and be controlled by the thermostat after the Self Cleaning Burner cycle.
