2.09.2 Heat Test
Heating elements become extremely hot when energized! Skin contact can result in severe
burn injury.
1. Confirm that Heat Switch ② is in the [OFF] position and drain valve is completely [CLOSED].
2. Liberally dampen heating elements
① with a wet sponge or towel, leaving visible moisture on them.
3. The controller displays ③ should show the messages “POWER FAILURE PRESS [START] TO PREHEAT” on the
Upper, and “HOLD” on the Lower. Press the [START] key
④.
4. The Upper Display should change to show a temperature setpoint >300°F along with the message PREHEAT.
The red HEAT indicator (on controller beside Lower Display) will turn ON and the real‐time temperature is
displayed on the Lower Display. The control panel amber HEAT light
⑤ should NOT be ON.
5. Place the Heat Switch ② in the [HEAT] position. The HEAT light ⑤ should now turn ON. Leave switch for
NO MORE THAN 15 to 20 SECONDS
then return it to the [OFF] position.
6. The moisture on elements should quickly dry and heat should be felt rising from the vat. DO NOT TOUCH
HEATING ELEMENTS!
9. If heating elements do not dry reasonably quickly (15 ‐ 20 secs) or heat is not detected, refer to Section 6.01,
Troubleshooting Procedures, else proceed to Section 2.09.3 below.
NOTE: During this test, if the HEAT light turns OFF, an alarm sounds and the Upper Display shows a message
“ERROR ‐ MAX ELEMENT TEMP”, return Heat Switch to [OFF] and proceed on to the next step, as this is an
indication that elements have been properly powered.
