Operation of Standard (Non-Thermostatic) Griddle Sections
Each 12”-wide section has one control knob, which can be
turned to OFF, HIGH, or LOW.
To start cooking, turn the appropriate control knob to HIGH.
Check that the burner ignites. The gas does NOT
automatically shut off if the burner does not ignite! If the
burner does not ignite, check and/or light the pilots (see
procedure at right). When the burner is hot, the burner flame
should appear blue and steady (some slight yellowing of the
flame tips may occur when using propane gas).
Always remember to heat the griddle slowly because quick
heating may cause costly damage. Never place utensils on
the griddle.
Do not waste gas and abuse equipment by leaving the
griddle on HIGH all the time. Damage to the griddle and
certain electronic components may occur, and MAY VOID
YOUR WARRANTY. During idle periods, turn the control to
LOW to keep the griddle warm. (Do not allow the griddle to
overheat above 550°F (288°C), as this will cause warping or
breakage.)
When necessary while cooking, pull out and empty the
grease drawer.
When done cooking, turn the appropriate control knob to
OFF. (The pilot should remain lit).
Each griddle section has a single pilot that is lit using a long
match inserted thorough a hole in the front valve panel. (A
48"-wide griddle has two pilots.) To light the pilot, do the
following:
1. Check that all the control knobs are in the OFF position.
2. Turn on the gas supply to the sectional range (if not
already on).
3. Light the pilot by inserting a long match (at least 11" long)
or pilot-lighting device straight into the hole on the front
valve panel of the griddle.
