Operating instructions

OPERATION
Turning the dial knob (recessed in the front panel) controls the heat of the griddle surface. When a control is
turned on, a signal light directly above the dial will glow. This indicates the griddle is heating in that zone.
The individual controls operate each 12” wide cooking zone. Make sure power is supplied to the unit then
turn the control knob to the desired temperature. When the light is out, with the dial set on a temperature
setting, the griddle plate has reached the desired temperature. The lights will intermittently come on during
cooking cycles to indicate temperature is being maintained. For best results, allow the griddle to heat 20-30
minutes before beginning to cook product.
When setting zones to different temperatures, do not set zones beside each other more than 50ºF apart.
Because of the mass of the griddle plate and conduction of the heat they will tend to reach the same
temperature. When you want zones at greater temperature variation, leave a zone or more between the
cooking zones. Turn off the zone or zones between the two cooking areas. Note: this will effect the
efficiency of the griddle. The heat being supplied will heat the areas between the cooking zones. You can
run the zones not being used at a temperature between the two set points, this will improve the recovery of
the hotter zone.
During idle times during the day, turn the griddle to a lower temperature setting. If you need to prepare
product, the griddle will heat up rapidly; and, holding the griddle at a lower temperature will save energy
costs.
When finished, turn all temperature controls to “OFF.”
