LIGHTING THE MAIN BURNERS:

1.  Open lid before lighting burner.

2.  Make sure all control knobs are in the “OFF” position.

3.  Select burner to be lit. Push and turn control knob to “HIGH”. Push and 

hold the igniter for 3 - 5 seconds.

4.  If ignition does NOT occur in 5 seconds, turn control knob to “OFF”, 

wait 5 minutes to allow gas to dissipate and repeat lighting procedure.

5.  To light other burners, follow steps 3-4.

6.  If burner does not ignite using the igniter, see “Match Lighting the Main Burners” section. 

7.  To turn off, turn each control knob clockwise until it locks in the “OFF” position. This does not turn off

the gas fl ow from the cylinder. 

 

Note:  If burner does not light or fl ame is too low, See “Trouble Shooting” section of the owners manual. 

WARNING

DANGER

Property damage, bodily harm, severe burns, and death could result from failure to follow these 
safety steps. These steps should be performed after the griddle has been assembled and prior to 
each use. DO NOT operate this griddle until you have read and understand ALL of the warnings and 
instructions in this manual.

• 

Ensure that the griddle is properly assembled.

• 

Inspect the gas supply hose for burns, chaffing, kinks, and proper routing before each use. If it is 
evident there is excessive abrasion or wear, or the hose is cut, it must be replaced prior to the griddle 
being used. Replace with hose and regulator Model No. 2540-155-7600-0, which can be obtained by 
contacting customer service at 1-855-735-9922.

• 

Leak check all gas connections, hose and propane tank. See section on “Leak Testing”.

• 

Ensure that all electrical supply cords are properly grounded. Keep any electrical supply cord and the 
fuel supply hose away from any heated surfaces. Hose should be at least 3 inches from hot surfaces.

• 

Position your griddle on a non-combustible level surface in a well ventilated location, a safe distance
from combustible materials, buildings and overhangs.

• 

Properly place the empty grease cup under the grease drain hole in the bottom of the griddle to catch 
grease during use.

• 

DO NOT block ventilation areas in sides, back or cart compartment of griddle.
