Routine Checks

• Check gas connections and valves for leaks or wear before each service.
• Ensure thermostat and manual controls work smoothly to prevent overheating and maintain consistent water temperature.
Weekly/Monthly

• Lubricate any moving parts per manual instructions (if applicable) to reduce wear.
Best Practices
• Use correct detergent & non-abrasive tools to protect stainless steel and maintain ETL sanitation compliance.
• Avoid overloading baskets; cook within capacity to reduce strain and extend lifespan.
