Operating Instructions
Step-Up Hot Plate Trivets
The step-up hot plate trivets can be used for cooking with pots or woks.
1. Make sure all knobs are in the “OFF” position.
Never touch trivets while step-up hot plate is in use or
immediately after use. Doing so will cause severe burns.
2. Remove the trivet from the step-up hot plate.
3 To change the cooking surface on the step-up hot plate in order to use with a
wok, turn trivet upside-down.
4. Install the upside-down trivet in the step-up hot plate (Figure 8-1).
Operating the Step-Up Hot Plate - Pilot Lighting Instructions
Be sure the drip tray has been properly placed in the step-up hot plate.
Before operating the step-up hot plate, it should be checked to see that it is sitting
level. Adjust the feet to level the step-up hot plate.
1. To raise the unit height to line up with other Globe countertop products, turn
bottom portion of feet clockwise (Figure 8-2).

.
To lower the unit height to line up with other Globe countertop products, turn
bottom portion of feet counter-clockwise.
The pilot lights on the appliance have been set at the factory. Each burner has a pilot
light.
1. Make sure all knobs are in the “OFF” position.
2. The main gas valve should be “CLOSED/OFF” for five (5) minutes prior to
lighting pilots to clear any existing gas.
3.
Turn the main gas valve to “ON/OPEN”.
4. Light and hold an ignition source (match) at the pilot. When the flame is
established, remove the ignition source. Repeat this step for each burner as
each burner has its own individual pilot.
NOTE: The pilot can be reached through the top of the trivets on the unit.
5. Turn each burner knob “ON”. If the burners do not ignite promptly, turn the knobs “OFF”. From the
opening in the front panel, use a screwdriver and turn the pilot valve screw counterclockwise which will
increase the flame height, and then repeat step 4.
The pilot flame should be as small as possible, but large enough to guarantee reliable ignition of the
burners when the knobs are turned to “ON”. The holes located in the front panel are pilot valve
adjustments. Use a screwdriver to turn the valve to adjust the flame height
to your desired level.
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 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.
