IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
The unit must be properly grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing a safe path for the electric current. If the unit has a power cord with a 4 or 5-prong grounding plug, a compatible and properly grounded outlet must be used. It is the owner’s responsibility to connect the unit to an appropriate wall receptacle, or have a qualified electrician connect the equipment to the power supply. Continued on next page...
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
2 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
For your safety, never cut, remove, or disable the electrical (ground) connection from the plug. Never use an adapter plug or an extension cord with the unit.
WARNING: Electric shock can result from an improperly grounded plug. Please consult a qualified electrician if you have any questions about these grounding instructions.
Every installation site has different electrical wiring. Because many different local codes exist, it is the Owner and Installer’s responsibility to comply with those codes. CookTek is not responsible for any consequential damages as a result of failure to comply with installation requirements.
ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
Wire the Plancha unit into a grounded, three-phase receptacle. Check the rating plate on the unit to verify the specified voltage and wattage match the supplied power. Incoming voltages lower than what is specified on the rating plate can result in less-than-rated power and slower heating times.
NOTE: For proper operation, an independent, dedicated circuit should be used in all installations.
Wiring connection:
• Black–Phase A
• Black–Phase B
• Brown–Phase C
• Yellow/Green–Ground
ALL WIRING MUST BE PERFORMED BY A LICENSED ELECTRICIAN.

Installation
Install or locate this equipment only in accordance with the instructions below.
Unpacking Instructions
1. Remove the unit carefully from the carton.
2. Before discarding packaging, check the packag­ing thoroughly for accessories and literature.
3. Read all installation instructions carefully before
starting the installation.
Prepare the Plancha for Use
Before operating your Plancha:
Keep the unit away from other heat sources and allow at least 2” (51 mm) inches clearance for air circulation at sides, front, and rear of the unit. If either the air intake or exhaust outlet is blocked, the internal temperature will rise, causing an error code to occur.
Operation
User Interface
The user interface on a CookTek Plancha unit consists of two knobs for adjusting the setting, a 4-digit display for visual verification of the setting, and a button to change between power and temperature control modes.
The 4-digit display on the top of the unit will show the power setting or temperature setting. If temperature mode is selected, the “F” or “C” character will flash when the cooking surface is below the set temperature. It will stop flashing when the cooking surface has reached the set temperature.
The display will also show an error code in the event of a failure.
Knob
When the knob is pointing up, the unit is off. Rotate the knob clockwise. At 45 degrees, a detent will indicate the lowest power or temperature setting. Continue rotating the knob clockwise; each detent indicates the next power or temperature setting.
Press the button to change from Power mode to Temperature mode, or to change the Temperature mode from Fahrenheit to Celsius.
It is the responsibility of the installer to comply with all federal, state, and local codes.
Every installation site has different electrical wiring. Because many different local codes exist, it is the owner and installer’s responsibility to comply with each applicable code. CookTek is not responsible for any consequential damages that may result from failure to comply with installation requirements and local codes. See page ii for more details.
Any installation not matching the specifications discussed in this manual automatically voids the product’s warranty.
The temperature setting range is 300-525˚F in 25-degree increments (150-260˚C in varying increments).

6 CARE AND CLEANING
Care and Cleaning
1. Clean the plancha surface often to prevent sticking and poor food product quality (see the adjacent steps for instructions pertaining to specific cooking surfaces.) Scrape the plancha plate regularly with a griddle scraper intended for your type of plancha surfaces to remove all surface grease and food debris.
WARNING: Hot surfaces can cause serious personal injury.
2. Clean and wipe out the grease chutes.
3. Wipe down the exterior, sides, and front of the plancha. Any stainless steel cleaner can be used to clean these surfaces.
4. Remove and empty grease box(es) of any and all debris, and also wipe down the inside of the grease box compartment for food particles that may have come free from the grease box.
NOTE: The grease box is designed to contain grease run off from the plancha surface. The grease box should NEVER be allowed to overfill, and should be emptied accordingly and grease disposed of properly.
Plancha Surface Cleaning, End Of Shift
WARNING: Hot surfaces can cause serious personal injury.
Plain Steel Cooking Surface
1. Scrape the plancha surface completely with a griddle scraper to remove grease and food debris.
2. Use a grill brick or grill screen to clean any heavy build-up of carbon from the plancha surface.
CAUTION: Never use steel wool pads as small fibers may be left behind on the cooking surface.
3. When the plancha surface is cool, polish the surface with non-abrasive, non-caustic cleaners that are approved for stainless steel.
4. It may be necessary to season the grill again after this cleaning.
Chrome Plated Cooking Surface
NOTE: Do not use grill bricks, grill screens, or any other type of abrasive material on the chrome plancha surface. Using abrasive materials will void
your warranty.
1. Scrape the plancha surface completely with a griddle scraper to remove grease and food debris.
2. When the plancha surface is cool, scrub the chrome surface with a palmetto cleaning brush and cool water.
3. Shine the chrome plancha cooking surface with non-abrasive, non-caustic cleaners that are approved for stainless steel, water, and a soft cloth.
4. Rinse the surface with clean water and wipe away any residue with a dry cloth.
Error Codes
In the event of a possible malfunction, the unit will display an Error Code on the segmented display. Please consult the following table when encountering an Error code.
Error Error Description Potential Cause Action Required

8 TROUBLESHOOTING
Troubleshooting
The following is a list of issues, along with the possible cause(s), that the unit may be experiencing. Please attempt the recommended resolution before calling Customer Support (800.90TURBO, +1 214.379.6000) or your Authorized Distributor.
Issue Possible Cause(s) Resolution
No power (No lights or fan noise).
Plancha unit suddenly stops heating.
Cooking surface does not get hot enough even though the power is set to maximum.
Unit is unplugged.
No power to receptacle.
Possible power brown out.
Circuit shared with another
electrical device.
Safety shut-off engaged.
Extension cord in use.
Circuit shared with another
electrical device.
A cold air draft is present around the unit.
Plug in the unit.
Plug a different electronic device into
the receptacle to make sure that power is present.
Check wall switches.
Check the circuit breaker.
Verify the supplied voltage/power levels
match the specifications on the unit rating plate.
Make sure the unit is not sharing a circuit with other electrical devices.
The safety shut-off will engage if the unit reaches an unsafe temperature. This can occur when the unit is used in power cook mode. The display will read “OH” and the unit will not heat until the temperature of the cooking surface has cooled to a safe level.
DO NOT use extension cords. Extension cords may affect the power levels reaching the equipment.
Make sure that the Plancha unit is not sharing a circuit with other electrical devices.
Locate the source of the cold air draft and redirect it, or relocate the Plancha if required.
