The griddle is equipped with reliable, high-efficiency valve ignitors. Each control knob operates an individual
burner, and each burner ignites with an individual valve igniter. Follow these steps to light the burners,
starting with the right burner:
1.
Open the gas supply valve
2.
Remove the griddle cover and place it to the side – DO NOT attempt to
ignite burners with the griddle hood in place
3.
Keep your face as far away from the burners as possible
4.
Push the right knob in and turn it slightly counterclockwise; hold for 2-3
seconds for the gas to start flowing, then rotate the burner knob
counterclockwise to the HI position
5.
You will hear a loud click as the lighter produces the ignition spark
6.
Listen for the sound of the gas igniting, and confirm ignition by looking through the drain slot to the
drip pan; if the burner does not light on the first try, repeat immediately
7.
Repeat step 4 to light the left burner
8.
If the burner does not light on the second try, push in both burner knobs and rotate to OFF:
a.
Open all access doors and drawers
b.
Wait 15 minutes to allow gas to clear before attempting to light it again
c.
Repeat the steps above until both burners are lit
9.
To shut off the burners, push the knob in and rotate clockwise to the OFF position
10.
Completely turn off the gas supply valve at the source
NOTE
: It is normal to hear a popping sound when the burners are turned off.
Always keep the gas supply turned off when not operating the griddle.
