external regulator is required
TO INSTALL
1. Level the device with a level gauge. The height can be adjusted by the adjustable feet. Unit should not sway or tilt during
operation. Units that are not level will experience operational problems.
2. The mounting position should be well-ventilated with proper hood exhaust system that will ensure that all the
combusted gases and cooking vapors produced during use are completely disposed of.
3. Codes require that a gas shutoff valve should be installed upstream the device where it is easily reached during
operation.
4. Make sure you are using the correct gas supply that is specified for this model. If the gas supply is not intended for
this model, do not proceed with installation.
5. This unit is applicable to low pressure regulating valves only. High pressure regulating valves and medium pressure
regulating valves are not to be used.
6. Check to make sure the connection pipe to the unit has no leaks and that all connections and pipe joint compound used are
resistant to the action of propane gases
7. A pressure regulator must be installed with this unit. Ensure that the regulator type is in agreement with the rating plate gas
supply. Regulator must be upright after installation. If regulator is not level during operation, performance problems may result
8. After connecting the appliance to the gas system, check for leaks at joints and pipe fittings; to do so, use soapy
water or a specific leak detector (spray).
9. Check the gas supply pressure after installation.
10. Gas supply pressure can be measured with a liquid-filled pressure gauge (e.g. a U-shaped pressure gauge, minimum
scale division 0.1mbar) or a digital gauge. Procedure as follows:
• Ensure gas is turned off
• Remove the panel and unscrew the screw on the pressure port
• Place the pressure gauge
• Start up the appliance by following the instructions in this owner's manual
• Check supply pressure. Pressure must agree with rating plate requirement when the unit is in full operation
• After the check, turn off gas and remove the pressure gauge
• Replace the sealing screw
IF UNIT HAS GRIDDLE TOP:
11. Grease collector and slide rail are packaged in oven for transport, remove
from oven.
12. Lift griddle plate and hook slide rail over edge of range even with front of
griddle plate.
13. Replace griddle plate and place grease collector in slide rail. Ensure that
grease collector moves freely and is properly positioned beneath griddle
grease chute.
