“Desi Pak” bags from the grill.
• Desi Pak bags are only intended to be left inside the
grill during shipment and equipment storage. Desi
Pak are designed to protect the electronic
components by controlling humidity levels
within the equipment.
• Garland highly recommends these bags
remain in the equipment while the grills are
in storage or not in operation
Removing “Desi Pak” bags from the grill.
1. Turn the clamshell grill

.
2. Using a 5/16” socket, remove the 5 screws from the
top rear panel. Store screws in a safe place.
3. Using a 5/16” socket, remove the 4 screws from the
bottom rear panel. Store screws in a safe place, be very
careful with the wires and connectors. Remove the “Desi
Pak” bag and discard.
4. Reinstall covers and tighten the screws.
Gas Connections, and Pipe Sizing.
• The size of the gas line is very important. If the line
is too small, the gas pressure at the burner manifold
will be low. This will cause slow recovery and delayed
ignition. The incoming gas pressure line should be a
minimum of 1-1/2”. A 2+1 single chassis platen grill
requires a 3/4” connection and a 1platen grill requires a
1/2” connection. The 2platen grill can have either a 1/2”
or 3/4” connection.
• Before connecting new pipe the pipe must be blown
out to dispose of any foreign particles. These particles
will cause improper operation.
• When using thread compound, use small amounts on
male threads only. Use a compound that is not affected
by the chemical action of LP gases. Avoid applying
compound to the first two threads to prevent clogging
of the burner orifices and control valve.
• Have the installer check all gas plumbing with a soap
solution for leaks. DO NOT USE matches, candles or
other ignition sources in checking for leaks.
• Check the data plate to determine the proper type of
gas before connecting the quick disconnect or piping
from the building gas supply.
• An incoming gas pressure test nipple is provided on the
incoming gas manifold for pressure checks.
• Minimum incoming gas pressure for Natural Gas is 6”
W.C. Maximum incoming gas pressure for Natural Gas is
14” W.C.
• Minimum incoming gas pressure for Propane is 10” W.C.
Maximum incoming gas pressure for Propane is 23” W.C.
• Burner operating gas pressure can be checked at the
outlet side of the gas valve at the pressure test point.
• Refer to “Gas Input Specification Chart” for correct
burner manifold pressure based on gas type.
• To adjust the burner pressure;
a. remove the sealing screw from the pressure spigot
on the outlet side of the gas valve and the connect a
manometer.
b. remove the sealing cap on the gas valve regulator
c. turn on both burners in that lane and set the pressure

Section 2 Installation
by turning the regulator screw.
d. turn off the grill, remove themanometer and re-fit the
sealing screw on the pressure spigot and regulator.
e. test those connection for leaks.
f. these procedure must be done by qualify technician
only.
• Gas pressures should be checked by the local Gas
Company or an authorized service agency only.
• Test all piping and connections for gas leaks. A rich soap
solution should be used for this purpose. Never use a
flame. If inside unit, protect electronic components/
boards before leak tesing with soap solution.
• The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply
piping system by closing its individual manual
shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas
supply piping system at test pressures equal to or
greater than ½ psi (3.5 kPa).
• If included, install the quick-disconnect gas hose to
the inlet fitting on the underside of the grill. Remove
dust cap from the male coupler and snap the quickdisconnect fitting on the gas hose assembly onto the
male coupler.

Operation
NOTE: Do not operate the unit without reading and
understanding the safety requirements. Refer to the safety
section at the front of this manual.
Sequence of Operation
After turning the power switch to “I” or ON position, the
grill will go through initialization. If the upper platens are in
the lowered position they will return to their raised upper
position. This movement takes approximately 8 seconds.
The upper platen is lowered automatically, following the
initiation of the cooking cycle, and the upper platen is
raised automatically upon completion of the cooking cycle.
Warning
With two sided cooking, the area between the upper
platen and the griddle plate should be regarded as a
“danger zone.” During two sided cooking the operator
must not be within this danger zone.
In two sided cooking, the upper platen remains in the
lowered position by nature of its own weight. It is not
locked down. It can be raised by lifting up on the handle on
the front of the platen. Under no circumstances, other than
safety, should the platen be manually opened more than
the normal open position.

point and containing different or share recipes. The
recipes stored by the grill contain the cooking profiles
(times, temperatures, prompts and platen gap) for various
products. Menus and recipes can be added, edited and
deleted from the library. Cook time and/or platen gap may
be changed for each recipe as well, depending on the grill
set up.
Sleep Mode
Sleep mode lowers the platen to conserve
energy during periods of inactivity, keeping it
ready to start a cook cycle. When in Sleep
mode, the grill will maintain the current
temperatures.
Automatic Sleep Mode
The grill can be configured to enter Sleep mode
automatically after a period of inactivity. Refer to
easyToUCH™ Diagnostics & Settings Menu.
Manual Sleep Activation
User can also manually activate the Sleep mode when in

Maintenance
Cleaning the easyToUCH™ controller
• Select lock icon on the panel, to temporarily lock
the touch screen for fifteen (15) seconds.
• Apply food safe cleaner to soft cloth or sponge, not
directly on controller. Wipe controller and dry with a soft
clean cloth.
• Do not use abrasive cleaners, steel-wool pads or
abrasive paper towels to clean the controller, as bristles
will scratch the controller surface.
Cleaning the Stainless Steel Panels
• Turn-Off-Power Switch when cleaning the side panels or
front panel of the grill.
• Turn-Off-Power Switch and disconnect all power plugs
before cleaning back panel. Refrain from touching
anything electrical when you’ve got wet hands or bare
feet.
• Once the unit has cooled external stainless steel panels
should be cleaned using a mild detergent and/or a
food-safe liquid cleaner designed to clean stainless
steel, a soft cloth and hot water.
• If it is necessary to use a nonmetallic scouring pad,
always rub in the direction of the grain in the metal to
prevent scratching.
• Warning: Do not remove any panel for cleaning.
• Wash a small area at a time and rinse the washed area
with a clean sponge dipped into a disinfectant. Wipe dry
with a soft clean cloth.
• Do not spray chemicals into any openings, such as
louvers on the front or rear vent panels. Doing so
can damage critical components, resulting in a nonwarranty service call.
• Keep water and/or cleaning solution away from the
front main power switch and power cords. Do not spray
any solution to these parts.
• The grill may be secured in the grill bay by using two
anchors that lock onto the front casters. Reattach all
safety clips and restraining cables (gas models) before
completing the cleaning.
Cleaning During Operation

to scrape grease on lower grill plate from front to back
