PERATION
1. Turn gas supply on. Immediately check all gas connections for leaks using soapy water.
2. Light the pilots (see the appropriate Operation section elsewhere in this manual). Check that the pilot flames are
large enough to extend along the flame carrier to the burner surface. If not, adjust the pilots (see page 19).
3. Turn on the Cheese Melter burners and check for correct flame appearance and height at both the HIGH and
LOW settings. When the burners ignite, a blue haze-type flame will cover the surface of the ceramics, but will
gradually disappear within two minutes. When the burner control is set to HIGH, the ceramics should glow red
and the flame on the surface of the ceramics should be barely visible, with little or no blue haze. When the burner
control is set to LOW, the surface of the ceramics should glow very dull red and the flame should have a blue-
haze color. If flame should flutter or “pop”, increase temperature setting.
4. Check that gas supply is adequate by simultaneously turning on all burners of all appliances connected to the
same gas supply to their highest setting, then again checking that the Cheese Melters pilot and burner flames
have correct appearance and height.
5. Turn off all burners and allow the Cheese Melter to cool.
