User Manual Single Searing Station
8
1. The searing station and surrounding area MUST
remain clear of fl ammable substances such as
gasoline, yard debris, wood, etc.
2. The airfl ow through the vent space located below
the control panel must remain unobstructed.
3. When using propane gas:
a. The required ventilation openings in the
enclosure must be clear of debris. See the
PROPANE SAFETY INFORMATION section
b. The propane cylinder, regulator, and rubber
hose must be in a location not subject to
temperature above 125° F (51° C).
4. The fl ames on the burner burn evenly along the
ceramic grid surface with a steady fl ame (mostly
blue). See FLAME PATTERN section below. If
burner fl ames are not normal, check and clean
the orifi ce and burner tube for insects and insect
nests. A clogged tube can lead to a fi re beneath
the unit. A proper fl ame pattern will ensure safe
operation and optimal performance.
5. The in-line gas valve or gas cylinder valve must
always be shut OFF when the unit is not in use.
6. Do not operate the burner with the lid in place .
7. Whenever reconnecting any wires, apply a
small amount of dielectric grease to the male
connector, then make the connection. This will
ensure conductivity and prevent moisture from
affecting the contact.
WARNING: NEVER cover more than 75% of the cooking surface with griddles or pans. Overheating will occur, and
burners will not perform properly when combustion heat is trapped below the cooking surface.
CAUTION: NEVER spray water on a hot gas unit.
The unit serial identifi cation number is located on the underside of the drip tray handle. It
is recommended that the drip tray fi rst be removed and cleaned / emptied of its contents,
then turned over to view. The unit rating label is located on the inside of the control panel.
SINGLE SEARING STATION FLAME PATTERN
A layer of fl ame may just be visible above the ceramic
grid of the searing station burner
especially around
the edges. The fl ame will initially appear mostly blue
with perhaps a few yellow fl ashes. Soon the red glow
of the ceramic will be the primarily visible color of
the burner top. Though there may be small areas of
lesser or greater intensity, the overall red color will
become fairly even after about three to fi ve minutes.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
A 120VAC (15 AMP minimum) Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupter (GFCI) GROUNDED 3-wire receptacle
(not included) is required within the vicinity of the unit
to provide power to the unit.
• Observe all local codes.
• Verify proper polarity of the receptacle.
• If an extension cord is used, ensure it is a
3-wire GROUNDED cord that is rated for the
power of the equipment, and is approved for
outdoor use with a W-A marking. DO NOT use
2-prong adapters.
• DO NOT TAMPER WITH THE EXTENSION
CORD OR THE UNIT POWER-SUPPLY CORD.
