Thermostat Calibration - Lang 36S Installation, Operation, Maintenance And Troubleshooting Manual

CAUTION: Any oven cleaner used should be marked: "Safe on Aluminum". We recommend
"SOKOFF".
Keep drip pans under range top plates clean.
Keep hot plate and griddle surfaces clean.
Outside of range and top should be kept clean.

THERMOSTAT CALIBRATION:

All thermostats are factory calibrated and are extremely reliable mechanical devices. Calibration of
thermostats should only be attempted if continued experience dictates unsatisfactory cooking
temperatures.
Calibrating the Griddle
Locate a surface thermometer in the center of each 12" x 24" section.
Set the thermostat at 350° and allow the temperature to stabilize.
Record three "cycle" temperatures and three "cycle off" temperatures. Average the six readings. They
should fall within fifteen degrees of the set temperature.
To adjust the thermostat, remove the knob and insert a small flat blade screwdriver down the center of the
shaft to a screw located at the end.
Turning the screw counterclockwise raises the temperature and turning the screw clockwise lowers the
temperature. Use caution when adjusting and turn the screw in 1/8 turn intervals to avoid over correction.
A 1/8 turn changes the thermostat calibration approximately 5°.
Calibrating the Oven
Locate an oven thermometer or thermocouple in the center of the oven cavity.
Follow the same procedures for calibrating the grill.
