When the water is at or above the minimum temperature for boiling (transition temperature), the
controller pulses power to the elements at a programmable rate. The range can be set between 0 and
9. The default setting is 5. When the water temperature is below boiling point, the power
application is 100 percent.
To set the Transition Temperature/Boil Intensity:
1. Verify that the controller is OFF (the display is blank).
2. Press the Simmer (right thermometer icon) switch to enter the programming mode; CODE appears
in the display.
3. Enter code 1111 (press the 1 button four times). Transition Temperature appears in the display.
(NOTE: If transition temperature does not appear, your controller is not configured with this
feature. Press the Simmer switch to exit the programming mode. The display will go blank.)
4. Enter the minimum temperature for boiling with the keypad. This temperature will vary with
your altitude. As a guide, the table below provides boiling points for altitudes from sea level to
6000 feet (1830 meters).
