START-UP PROCEDURE

1. Open manual gas shut-off valve.
2. Ensure that the braising pan is in the DOWN position.
3. Turn the THERMOSTAT dial to desired setting. The
RED TEMPERATURE LIGHT will come on. This will
turn on the electronic ignition, which will light the
burners.
4. If the burners do not come on after 30 seconds, turn
the THERMOSTAT dial to OFF and then ON again to
restart.
5. When braising pan has reached set temperature,
the red TEMPERATURE LIGHT will go off and the
burners will shut off. The burners will cycle on and off
thereafter to maintain set temperature. The red TEM-
PERATURE LIGHT will be on when the burners are
on and off when burners are off.
6. If gas supply is interrupted during operation, turn
THERMOSTAT dial to OFF position and turn gas
supply OFF. Wait five minutes, then repeat Steps 1
through 4 to restart.
7. Turn the THERMOSTAT dial to OFF when braising
pan is not in use.

position.

PROLONGED SHUTDOWN

OPERATION

1.
Check to see that the correct gas connection has been
made to the unit and the electric 110/120-volt connection
has been made.
2.
Be sure skillet has been or is cleaned before using.
3.
Be certain skillet is lowered to the normal horizontal cook-
ing position so burners will light.
4.
Set the thermostat to the desired temperature. See Cook-
ing Tips for thermostat settings.
5.
Preheat to desired setting before grilling, pan frying, or any
other type of cooking except boiling.
NOTE: For best results, allow unit to cycle ON/OFF once.
6. Cover should be up for most types of cooking, except
simmering 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 re-
moved from skillet to prevent overcooking.
8. To lower skillet, merely turn tilt skillet hand crank
counterclockwise. To raise skillet, turn hand crank
clockwise.
9. For cleaning instructions, see Cleaning and Mainte-
nance.
CAUTION: BE SURE TO READ!
Disconnect the power supply to skillet before
cleaning or servicing.
Keep this appliance area free and clear of com-
bustibles.
Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ven-
tilation air.
If skillet pan is difficult to raise, the lift gears
may need to be lubricated. The gears are located
on the right side under the control box. Apply a
liberal amount of grease along the helical thread
of the worm where it engages the worm gear.
Use multi-purpose, NLGI #2 lithium-based, water-
resistant grease.
Keep this manual for future reference.
Consult the factory, the factory representative, or
a local service company to perform maintenance
and repairs.
In the event of a power failure, do not operate
appliance.
Periodically examine the flue outlet located be-
hind the skillet cover for any obstructions.
Appliances with casters are always to be re-
strained from movement. If removal of the
restraint is necessary, always reconnect the
restraint when the appliance is returned to its
originally installed position.
