Main thermostat, checking
1.
Check to make sure the thermostat is fully closed.
To confirm this hold the thermostat up against a
light. No light may shine through where the joints
meet. If it does, this means that the thermostat can-
not be closed and must, therefore, be replaced.
2.
Heat the water to 75
°
C and insert the thermostat.
3.
After at least 30 seconds check to see if the ther-
mostat is still closed.
4.
Heat the water to boiling point (100
°
C). After the
water has been on the boil for at least 30 seconds,
check to see if the thermostat has opened at least
7 mm. If the thermostat has not opened, replace it.
