Operating Instructions 

Igniting the Burner 

To ignite the burner, turn knob to the “ON” position. Then back off to the desired flame level. The 

range of adjustment is virtually infinite between “ON” and “OFF”.   

The space between the legs at the bottom admits combustion air. DO NOT BLOCK THIS SPACE. 

All burners are lit from constantly burning pilots. Turning the valve to the desired flame height is all that is 

required to put the unit in service.   

Do not permit fans to blow directly at the unit. Wherever possible, avoid open windows next to the unit’s 

sides or back. Avoid wall type fans which create air cross-currents within a room.   

It is also necessary that sufficient air should be allowed to enter the room to compensate for the amount of air 

removed  by  any  ventilating  system.  Otherwise,  a  subnormal  atmospheric  pressure  will  occur,  affecting 

operation and causing undesirable working conditions.   

A properly designed and installed hood will act as the heart of the ventilating system for the room or area in 

which the unit is installed, and will leave the unit independent of changing draft conditions.   

NOTE: It may be necessary to adjust the balance of gas, volume and air supply to each burner. This must be 

done by an authorized service technician.   

Seasoning the Griddle 

Heat to low temperature (300 - 350 F/150-180C) and pour small amount of cooking oil to the griddle plate 

(about one ounce (30cc) per square foot of surface). Spread the oil over the entire griddle surface with a cloth 

to create a thin film. Wipe off any excess oil with a cloth. Repeat this procedure 2 to 3 times until the griddle 

has a slick, mirror-like surface.   

Operating the Griddle 

 

Turn the burners on about 15-20 minutes before cooking for preheating. Set the knobs to the desired flame 

height or temperature. Each valve controls the gas flow to the burner to bring that area of the unit up to the set 

temperature.   

If  different  temperature  settings  are  to  be  used,  adjoining  areas  should  be  set  at  progressively  higher 

temperatures using the lowest temperatures on the outside burners. A uniform and systematic approach to 

the loading of the unit will produce the most consistent product results.   

Shutdown burner 

To turn 'OFF' the appliance completely, turn the gas control knob completely clockwise to the 'O' position, the 

pilot burner will extinguish.
