Setting the Controls

The model 247 & 248 Toaster Grills provide two modes of operation: DEDICATED MODE and PRODUCT MODE.

• DEDICATED MODE is a simple mode of operation for toasting buns that is similar to the 213, 411 & 416 Series T oaster Grills, with a set toast time and temperature for one product “BUN1”.

• PRODUCT MODE allows you to set both the t oasting time and temperature individually for four additional products. Note that it may take several minutes for the platen to heat up or cool down to a new temperature setting. You can also change the display to any four character name of your choice for each of the products to indicate which product is being toasted.

• Furthermore, 247 and 248 T oaster Grills allow you to manually initiate the power-saving mode. (See Figure 1.)

NOTE: When using this unit, the ambient temperature at the mounting site should not exceed 43°C (110°F).

CAUTION

All electrical connections must be in accordance with local electrical codes and any other applicable codes.

Plug the unit into an applicable electrical receptacle.
