2.4. COOKING
It is important to keep the cook tank full of water to minimize the chance of boiling the appliance dry
and to keep the water at a level that will provide optimum cooking performance. To keep the water at
its normal operating temperature, it is best to add water in small amounts. If the appliance is
equipped with manual water fill, it is recommended that the fill knobs are set so that water enters the
tank slowly during cooking.
2.4.1. SIMMER MODE
Simmer mode maintains the water temperature to just below boiling. This mode can be used to
reheat pasta or as a “stand by” mode.
To enter simmer mode:
Models with electric thermostat: Press the boil/simmer switch to the simmer position.
All other Models: Press the
*
button until

is displayed.
If you are not ready to cook, enter simmer mode. This will conserve energy and keep water in the
tank longer then when in boil mode.
2.4.2. BOIL MODE
Boil mode consistently heats the water so that the water will boil. Once the water starts to boil the
appliance is ready to cook pasta.
To enter boil mode:
Models with electric thermostat: Press the boil/simmer switch to the boil position.
All other Models: Press the
*
button until

is displayed.
