INSTALLATION
The installation of this appliance should conform to the national electric code and local electric
codes and ordinances and the local electric company rules and regulations.
For your protection, we recommend that a qualified electrician install this appliance. The electrician
should be familiar with electrical installations and local electrical requirements. The external
wiring should be in conduit or an approved type of flexible cable suitable for operation at 90° C
and sized to carry the load. Use copper wire only. The supply circuit should be properly fused
and equipped with a means of disconnecting as required by local electrical code. The body of
the appliance should be grounded
(Do not ground to a gas supply pipe).
1. Locate the unit: Do not install the unit closer than 12 inches from a side wall and/or closer
than 9 inches from a rear wall.
2. Level the char-broiler by adjusting the feet, which have provision for 1 inch of adjustment.
This adjustment also allows a perfect alignment to be achieved with other Star-Max™
units.
3. The supply connection terminal block can be accessed by removing the cover plate from
the back of the broiler.
4. Fill the water pan on the broiler prior to use. Make sure water is present in the pan at all
times. Note: The pan is easily removable for cleaning.
CAUTION
CARE MUST BE TAKEN WHEN OPENING PAN TO PREVENT SPILLING.
5. The charbroiler is equipped with modular grates that are readily removable for cleaning.
Each heated section is controlled by a separate heat control switch.
6. Seasoning - Set the heat control switch to the low position and preheat for about 15 to 20
minutes. Using a cloth, spread a thin film of cooking oil over the top of the grate surface.
Allow the film to remain on the grate for about 5 minutes. Wipe the surface clean and apply
another film of cooking oil. Wipe the surface clean again. The broiler is now ready for use.
The oil may tend to smoke - this is normal.
7. Approximate grilling temperatures range from 350° F (with no product on the grill) on low
setting to 570° F on high.
CLEANING
1. Clean with a clean soft cloth daily. Any discoloration can be removed with a non-abrasive
cleaner.
2. Remove the water pan and cooking grates. Wash them in a sink.
3. To clean heating element, first remove the grates. Swing the element housing to a vertical
position and lock it in place with the support located in the center. Clean the elements with
a stiff wire brush or equivalent.
4. Heat baffles are located directly below the heating elements and are removable for cleaning
in a sink.
