BURNER OPERATION

Each burner is controlled by an individual high-low, on-off valve. A variety of broiling
temperatures may be obtained by turning the burner valve knob to any position between
ON and LO. It is possible through this arrangement to have a high heat or searing section,

while having a low heat nishing or holding section. For the searing operation, turn the valve
counter clockwise for the section to a position of “ON” or close to it. For holding or nishing,

turn the valves closer to the “LO” position on the dial. You select the heat pattern you like, and
set the valves accordingly. Be sure burners are staying fully lit when set in low positions.

CLEANING

An oven type cleaner can be used to clean all stainless steel surfaces. DO NOT spray
cleaner into burners. Cover burners with foil to protect them while cleaning, being certain to

remove the foil when nished.
