3.1.1 Introduction
CAUTION
The Spaghetti Magic III (SMS III) computer used in 17EC/17ECS units is specially
configured for them. The programming and operation of the 17EC/17ECS SMS III
computer are different than those of the SMS III computers used in other products.
The computers are not interchangeable.
The Spaghetti Magic III computer allows the operator to specify a specific cook time in minutes and
seconds, then initiate a cooking cycle. The computer is configured for both automatic filling
(AutoFill) and automatic skimming (Autoskim) features.
The BOIL mode is used when actually cooking pasta.
The SIMMER mode feature maintains the water temperature just below boiling (approximately
195ºF/90.6ºC), which conserves energy and water. This feature is designed for rethermalizing
previously cooked packaged products, and for keeping the cooker in standby.
The SKIM feature, when selected, adds water for approximately 3 seconds once a minute. It causes
the water to overflow into the drain, carrying floating starch with it. (A buildup of starch reduces the
efficiency of the cooker and can cause erroneous temperature and water level sensing.)
