THERMOSTAT dial to OFF and then ON again to restart.

TEMPERATURE LIGHT will go OFF and the burners will
shut OFF. The RED TEMPERATURE LIGHT will blink ON
and OFF thereafter when the burners are OFF letting the
operator know that the burners are cycling to maintain tem-
perature.

THERMOSTAT dial to OFF position and turn the gas supply
OFF. Wait ve minutes, then repeat steps 1 through 4 to re-
start.

tion.

OPERATION
BEFORE FIRST USE:
1. Check to see that the correct gas connection has been
made to the unit (110/120 volt connection).
2. Be sure skillet has been or is cleaned before using.
3. Be certain skillet is lowered to the normal horizontal cooking
position so burners will light.
4. Set the thermostat to the desired temperature. See Test
Kitchen Bulletin Section for thermostat settings.
5. Preheat to desired setting before grilling, pan frying, or any
other type of cooking except boiling.
6. Cover should be up for most types of cooking, except sim-
mering or boiling. The cover has a lip at the rear that will
direct condensate into the skillet rather than onto the cabinet
base.
7. When food is cooked, it should be immediately removed
from skillet to prevent overcooking.
8. To lower skillet, merely turn tilt skillet hand crank counter
clockwise. To raise skillet, turn hand crank clockwise.
9. For cleaning instructions, See Trouble-Shooting and Main-
tenance Section.
CAUTION: BE SURE TO READ:
► Disconnect the power supply to skillet before cleaning or
servicing.
► If the skillet pan is difcult to raise, the lift gears may need
to be lubricated. The gears are located on the right side un-
der the control box. Apply a liberal amount of gease along
the helical thread of the worm where it engages the worm
gear. Use multi-purpose, NLGI #2 lithium-based, water-re-
sistant grease.
► Periodically examine the ue outlet located behind the
skillet cover for any obstructions.
► Appliances with casters are always to be restrained from
movement. If removal of the restraint is necessary, always
reconnect the restaint when the unit is returned to its origi-
nally installed position.
