2.0 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION: The appliance and its parts are hot. Use care when operating,
cleaning and servicing the appliance.
BEFORE FIRST USE
Using a non-corrosive, grease-dissolving commercial cleaner, clean the protective metal
oils from all surface parts and the interior of the tilting braising pan. Follow the cleaner
manufacturer’s directions. Rinse thoroughly and drain the pan. Wipe dry with a soft
clean cloth.
LIGHTING
CAUTION: If you smell gas during the lighting procedure, immediately shut
off the gas supply until the leak has been corrected.
WARNING: In the event of main burner ignition failure, a 5 minute purge
period must be observed prior to re-establishing ignition source.
1. Open the manual gas shut-off valve located under the left hand console, when facing
the front of the unit.
2. Ensure that the skillet pan is in the down or horizontal position.
3.
Turn the “POWER” switch “ON”.
4.
Set the thermostat dial to the desired setting. The red “TEMPERATURE” pilot will be
on until the desired setting has been reached.
5.
The green “IGNITION” pilot should remain on with the “TEMPERATURE” pilot,
indicating normal ignition and operation. If the “IGNITION” pilot goes off while the
“TEMPERATURE” pilot remains on, this indicates that the system has failed to ignite
the burners. A five minute period of complete shut off is required before restarting.
6. When the skillet has reached the setting, both pilots will go off, indicating the unit has
reached the set temperature and that the burners are off. The unit will cycle on and
off to maintain the set temperature.
7.
Turn the “POWER” switch to “OFF” when the skillet is not in use and close the
manual gas shut-off valve.
