that the sensitive portions are located in almost the sam e
depth.
NOTE
The switch and thermometer must not touch the con-
tainer sides or bottom.
Place the container over a source of heat and gradu-
ally raise the temperature of the coolant while stirring the
c
oolant gently.
Using the hand tester, measure the internal resistance
of the switch across the terminals at the temperatures
shown in the table.

If the hand tester does not show the specified values, re-
place the switch.
