PRODUCT APPLICATION INFORMATION

General

The range is the workhorse of the kitchen because of its
versatility. Most frequently used in small applications, such as
cafes, schools, church kitchens, firehouses, and small nursing
homes where demands are less taxing. As a general rule of
thumb, one four to six burner range with a hot top will be
adequate for a restaurant seating 30 to 35.
The top of the range is designed for flexibility and the
preparation of numerous different types of products. It may
be equipped with two, or even three different types of tops
and burners, depending on the menu needs. An operation
that cooks to order, or uses the range primarily as back-up
will find that open burners will suit most of their needs.
Preparation of soups, stocks, or sauces is done on a hot top
where slow, even cooking in desirable.

Shut Down:
1. Turn all valves and thermostats to the "OFF" position, or
lowest setting.
2. If the range is to be shut down for an extended period of
time, close the in-line gas valve.
Relighting:
1. Turn all gas valves off.
2. Wait five, (5) minutes.
3. Following procedure under "Lighting".
Heating larger quantities of food can be done more
efficiently than heating small quantities. Pots and pans
should be covered whenever possible to reduce energy
consumption.
High acid sauces, such as tomato should be cooked in
stainless steel rather than aluminum to avoid chemical
reaction. Light colored sauces such as Alfredo may be
discolored by the use of aluminum, especially if stirred with
a metal spoon or whip. Saltwater shellfish may pit aluminum
pots if they are frequently used for this purpose.
NOTE: Many parts of the commercial range are raw steel.
Hot tops, griddles, springs, door hooks etc., can react with
moisture, forming rust. This occurrence is normal and not
considered a defect. Clean with a stainless steel or fiber pad.
A light coating of cooking oil may be applied.
