INITIAL OPERATION

Initial Pilot Light

WARNING Keep appliances free and clear from combustibles
at all times. When lighting pilots and checking for burner
performance, do not keep your face close to the burners. The
burner may light with a "pop" and could flash back and cause
facial burns.
Before lighting any pilots, make sure that the burner valves
and thermostats are turned "OFF".
Initial pilot light is in the following sequence:
1. Turn the manual shut-off valve on the incoming service
line "OFF".
2. Turn all burner valves "OFF".
3. Close all pilot adjusting screws (clockwise turn all the
way in).
4. Wait for any accumulated gas to disperse.
5. Open the manual shut-off valve.
6. Apply a lighted match or taper to a pilot burner and open
that pilot's adjustment screw gradually until the pilot
lights.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

WARNING If gas odors are detected, the gas supply must
be turned "OFF' at the main shut-off valve and the local
gas company or authorized service agency contacted for
service.

General Cleaning

Any piece of equipment works better and lasts longer when
maintained properly and kept clean. Cooking equipment is
no exception. Your U.S. Range "Regal" Char-Broiler must be
kept clean during the working day and thoroughly cleaned
at the end of each day.

7. Adjust the pilot flame for the desired characteristics.
8. Turn "ON" that main burner and watch to make sure it
lights from the pilot, then turn the burner "OFF".
9. Repeat steps 6 through 8 to light all remaining pilots.
If only one pilot has gone out, it is not necessary to follow
the entire procedure outlined above. Merely apply a lighted
match or taper to the pilot until it lights, then adjust the pilot
valve. If the pilot will not light, close the adjustment valve
completely, do not use that burner, and call for service.
NOTE: It may be necessary to re-light the pilots several
times until the new lines are purged of any trapped air and
constant gas flow is attained.

Final Preparation

New units are wiped clean with solvents at the factory
to remove any visible signs of dirt, oil, grease, bacteria,
remaining from the manufacturing process.
They should be washed thoroughly with hot, soapy water
to remove film residues and any installation dust or debris
before being used for food preparation. The top grates
should be removed and washed before use.

Daily

1. Remove the broiler grates. Wire brush them clean or
any encrusted materials and wash in hot, soapy water. A
common cleaning practice is to turn grates up side-down
to burn off encrusted material. Do not do this with the
"Regal"Char-Broiler! The flame from the burner is shielded
by a cast iron radiant with the result that heat not flame
reaches the grate. It is likely that cooked-on matter will
cook in even deeper rather than burn off.
2. Remove the radiants and wire brush them clean, then
wash in hot soapy water. A rule of thumb is that if the
grates are becoming encrusted, so are the radiants.
