To prevent damage, always use the OEM
recommended size flat bottom pan(s).
Generally, the pan should be large enough to
cover the burner, but not be more than one
inch larger than the burner grate.
Do not use a broiler pan, griddle or any other
large utensil that covers more than one
burner at a time. This will create excessive
heat that may cause melting, sooting or
discoloration.
In addition, the use of undersized pans could
expose a portion of the heating element to
direct contact and may result in ignition of
clothing. Proper relationship of pans to burner
will improve efficiency.
To use the drop-in stove outside
(if so equipped)
The drop-in stove must be COMPLETELY
cooled to avoid causing injury from handling
when it is hot. Turn off the propane valve,
disconnect the propane hose and carry the
drop-in stove outside the RV. Always carry
the stove assembly with both hands.
Fig. 11.5 Drop-in stove
1. Mount the cabinet onto the rail at a 30°
angle and slowly lower the outer side until
it is horizontal. If applicable, attach the
brace to the underside of the stove and
RV sidewall.
2. Attach the propane system using the
“quick coupler” connection (see the
following instructions).
3. Raise the hinged metal guard assembly to
the vertical position.
Wait until the grill is completely cooled, then
store it.
Attaching the “quick coupler” connection
The “quick coupler” is directly connected to
the RV propane system. The “quick-coupler”
connection has a positive shut-off valve as
required by code and standards.
1. Place the “quick coupler handle in the
OFF position and push back the sleeve.
The valve handle must be OFF to make
the connection.
2. Insert the plug and release the sleeve.
3. Push the plug until the sleeve snaps
forward, locking the plug into the socket.
4. Turn the handle ON to allow propane to
flow to the drop in stove.
During and after use, do not touch or let
clothing or other flammable material come
in contact with the top burners (or heating
elements), burner grates or other areas
near the top burners or oven until they
have had sufficient time to cool. These
areas can get hot enough to cause burns.
Never leave cooking food unattended.
Turn pan handles inward, but not over the
tops of the other range burners. Ensure
that pans used are large enough to contain
the food and avoid boil-overs. Heavy
splattering or spills left on the cook top can
ignite and cause burns.
If using glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic,
earthenware or other glazed utensils (or
cookware) verify it is safe for use on the
top burners. Only certain types of utensils
(or cookware) are suitable for surface or
top burner use.
