shown.
THEBMOMETER
THERMOSTAT
Heat the water, and check the temperature with a
thermometer. Check the temperature at which the
thermostat first opens, and at which it is fully open
CAUTION: Do not let the thermometer touch the
bottom of the hot Gonlainel.
Measure lift height of the thermostat when fully
open.
