Oven Controls
Thermostat — (located on the right side of the switch panel) controls and maintains oven temperature around the
desired set temperature. Temperature range of the oven is from 175°F to 550°F.
VRC Oven ON-OFF Switch (Convection Oven) — a rocker-type switch that works in conjunction with the electric
supply of the thermostat and heating elements operating the oven. This switch must be in the ON position for the
oven to operate.
3-Heat Switch (VR Ranges with Standard Ovens Only) — There is one 3-heat switch located to either side of the
oven thermostat dial. The left switch controls the rate of temperature build-up for the 2700 total watts of the inner
and outer top oven elements, and the right switch controls the heating build-up of the 4000 total watts of the inner
and outer bottom oven elements. At HI power, both elements (top and bottom) are at maximum output. At MED
power, the inner elements (top and bottom) are at half power. At LO power, the inner and outer elements (top and
bottom) are heating in series at about one-quarter power.
Oven Indicator Light — (located next to the thermostat) when lit, indicates the thermostat is calling for heat and when
OFF, indicates the desired temperature is reached.
BEFORE FIRST USE
Clean off the rust preventive compound on the surface units with a cloth dampened with a grease solvent. Wipe with
a clean, damp cloth, then dry thoroughly.
Seasoning
The cast iron surface plates must be seasoned. To do this, grease top, then turn element switches to LO (or
thermostat to 300°F) and allow plates to heat up gradually for about 2 hours. Repeat this procedure a second time
before regular use. Seasoning the surface plates will deter cracking of the cast iron and ensure a longer life.
USING THE RANGE TOP
Use the high setting for bulk cooking jobs or to bring food quickly up to its cooking temperature, then reduce to the
actual cooking temperature. During slow cooking periods, reduce plate temperature to idle around 200°F (or set 3-
heat switch to MED).
12" x 24" Hot Top
Each hot top section has an independent control allowing adjustment to HI-MED-LO temperature settings. The hot
top surface is best suited for stock pot work.
When ready to use the hot top section, wipe the surface clean of all grease and food particles. Position utensils so
that as much of the hot top section area as possible is covered. Set control at desired dial setting.
12" x 24" All Purpose Top
Each all purpose top section is independently operated by a separate thermostat allowing a variety of temperature
settings for sauteing, braising, pan frying and skillet work.
When ready to use the all purpose top section, wipe the surface clean of all grease and food particles. Position
utensils so that as much of the hot top section area as possible is covered. Set control at desired dial setting.
