GHP, GHPW and GHPS Gas Open Burner Ranges are furnished with either a pilot safety valve or a
standing pilot (not available in the European Community). Please follow the instructions for your unit.
Pilot Operation Flame Failure Gas Valve:
Operation of the gas valve pilot:
1. Turn knob on the main gas valve to the pilot position
2. Depress knob to start gas flow to the pilot valve
3. Light pilot valve
a. Using a match or taper
4. Hold in knob for 15 to 30 seconds to heat up the thermocouple
5. Release knob and turn to the desired gas flow position
a. If pilot goes out repeat steps 1-4, some thermocouples will take longer to heat up
Standing Pilot Lighting Instructions (Not Available in the European Community)
The pilot lights on the broilers have been set at the factory. A screwdriver may be required for the first
lighting to adjust the flame for your elevation.
1. Turn off the manual shut off valve and wait 5 minutes to clear the gas.
2. Turn all knobs to the "OFF" position.
3. The valve can be accessed through an opening in the front panel or remove the cooking grates
and light the pilot from above.
4. Turn the manual shut off valve on.
5. Hold an ignition source (match) to both openings on the pilot tube. When the flames are
established, remove the ignition source.
6. Turn the burner knobs to "HI". If the burner does not ignite, promptly open the pilot valve more.
If the pilot flame appears larger than necessary, turn it down and reset burner ignition. The pilot
flame should be as small as possible but large enough to guarantee reliable ignition of the
burners when the knobs are turned to "HI".
Relighting the Pilot
If the pilot light should go out for any reason:
Promptly shut off all gas at the manual shut off valve.
Turn off all knobs and pilot valves; wait 5 minutes to clear gas.
Relight following steps 4 through 6 under Standing Pilot Lighting Instructions.
Lighting the Main Burner
Since the burner is lit from constantly burning pilot, turn knobs to "HI" to put the unit in operation; then
adjust to any desired position between "LO" and "HI".
To light burner, turn knob to "max." then back off to the desired flame level. The range of
adjustment is virtually infinite between high and off. (At the small flame, there is a pre-set low).
When the broiler is first heated, it will smoke until oil used in manufacturing, preservation and dust
from storage and shipping are burned off. An hour at "max." on all burners is usually sufficient.
Turn knobs off and let cool
For first cooking, set the grates at maximum tilt position and preheat before broiling. You will have
to experiment with knob settings and grate position for each particular item.
Keep the grease/water pan with sufficient water to cover the entire bottom.
Clean regularly. Grates may be removed for washing in the sink. Brush out carbonized particles.
Thoroughly wash the grease/water pan.
CAUTION
Never attempt to move a grill section while cooking. An unexpected flare could cause severe injury.
Turn off the unit, let it cool and use potholders and/or gloves to reposition or remove. The space
between the legs at the bottom admits combustion air, DO NOT BLOCK THIS SPACE.
