GENERAL OPERATIONAL NOTES
Carefully read the description of the charbroiler operation on the
specification sheet.
Do NOT use this appliance if it has been submerged in water. Call a
qualified technician to examine the appliance and to service or replace
any component which has been submerged. Burners which have
been allowed to become wet must be thoroughly dried before use.
For initial startup, and any time the gas supply has been shut-off, it
may take several minutes to light the pilot while air in the piping and
manifolds is purged.
The burner control knobs must be turned by hand only. Never use
tools to turn the control knob. If the knob will not turn by hand, DO
NOT attempt to force or repair it. Contact your Authorized Wells
Service Agency for repairs. Forced or improperly repaired valves
pose the risk of fire and/or explosion.
Make sure burners, pilot burner and drip tray are properly installed
before attempting to operate.
LIGHTING THE PILOT FLAME
Before lighting the pilot light, smell all around the appliance area for
gas. Be sure to smell near floor level because some gas is heavier
than air and will settle to the floor.
For initial startup, and any time the gas supply has been shut-off, it
may take several minutes to light the pilot while air in the piping and
manifolds is purged.
The pilot light must be lighted by hand:
Remove grates. Turn all control knobs to the full OFF position.
Wait 5 minutes.
The pilot is located adjacent to the burner, and is accessible from
the top of the unit.
Be sure the gas shut-off valve is ON and the appliance has had time
for the air to be purged from the lines. Attempt to light the pilot every
15 seconds after the gas valve is turned on.
Light the pilot with a long match or fireplace lighter.
DO NOT use a cigarette lighter.
Reinstall grates
SHUT DOWN INSTRUCTIONS
