
FIRST STEPS
POSITIONING
The griddle must be placed under an exhaust hood
with a fi re retardant system. Your ventilation hood,
when installed, must conform to the current ANSI/
NFPA 96 standard. ALL connections and placement
must comply with local and national codes. It is the
responsibility of the owner and local installer to comply
with these regulations when installing the griddle.
NOTE: NOT FOR OUTDOOR INSTALLATION.
LEVELING
Your Teppanyaki Griddle will operate at its highest ef-
fi ciency when properly leveled. The Teppanyaki griddle
must be leveled within the table and the table must be
leveled to the fl oor.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
The Keating Teppanyaki Griddle is equipped with a
three wire terminal block with ground for fi eld wiring.
Compare the griddle terminal connections with the wir-
ing diagram mounted on the inside of the control panel
of the griddle.
This unit is designed to be connected by hard fi xed
wiring only. Cords and plug caps are not acceptable.
Electrical connection must be hard-wired by qualifi ed
personnel.
NOTE: NOT FOR OUTDOOR INSTALLATION
NOTE: Customer must provide drawing of table that
will be used, and table must be ventilated. Keating
does not manufacture the table.
WIRE SIZE
Use the WIRE SIZE TABLE to help determine the
proper wire size for electrical service hook-up. Use the
largest amp value of the three conductors for 3-phase
installations when using the table. The amperage
values for a product can be found on its serial number
tag. Consult the National Electrical Code Handbook
for additional information or to help answer questions
about wire size selection.

*For runs greater than 75' up to 125', use the next
wire size larger to keep the voltage drop to less than
3%. For runs greater than 125', consult the National
Electrical Code Handbook to help determine the proper
wire size.
**2/0 wire ambient temperature must be kept at less
than 104°F (40°C).

OPERATING
CONDITIONING THE MIRACLEAN
®
GRIDDLE
The Teppanyaki Miraclean® Griddle has been “sea-
soned” at the factory. The chrome surface when
heated creates a thin layer of chrome oxide which acts
as a releasing agent for food products. If you feel you
need to recondition the surface, the following instruc-
tions should be followed:
1. Follow cleaning instructions on page 5.
2. Heat the Teppanyaki to 400°F for one hour.
3. Lower thermostat to 350°F, allowing the Teppanyaki
to cool to about 350°F, as is evident when griddle
cycles on or surface thermometer indicates correct
temperature.
4. Lightly coat the Miraclean® surface with griddle oil.
NOTE: Despite the food releasing properties, the
chrome surface is not a true “non-stick” surface. For
best cooking results and product appearance, use
griddle oil for products that require the surface to be
conditioned.
CONDITIONING THE POLISHED STEEL GRIDDLE
The surface of the polished steel griddle is conditioned
by lightly coating the surface with griddle oil before
each run of product.
