THERMOSTAT

DOOR

THERMOSTAT KNOBON/OFF

Always allow 10-20 minutes of preheat time before loading the unit with product.

Failure to allow sufcient preheat time will result in unsatisfactory warming of the rst load.

Check the power cords to insure that it is plugged into a proper outlet.
Unit's ON/OFF rocker switch to "ON" position.
Turn both control knobs to 9 (350°F), this is the ideal setting for warming tortillas.

Each side needs to be set separately.

Once set, slide the thermostat door closed.

Set knob to 9, then close Thermostat Door.

IDLING

During idle periods, to save on operating costs, use one side, leaving the other "OFF", or lower
the temperature setting of the thermostat to about 5 (250°F). It is not necessary to maintain
cooking temperature during idle periods, as the griddle can quickly be reheated to the desired
temperature.

SIGNAL LIGHTS

Each thermostat has its own signal light which indicates when the unit’s control knob is not in
the off position.

OPERATING HINTS AND SAFETY

Turn "OFF" unit at the end of each day of operation.
Do not leave the unit in operation without an attendant.
Turn thermostat down to 5 (250°F) during idle periods. It will take only a few minutes to

regain operating temperature.
Use spatula with rounded corners to push excess grease into grease drawer after each load

of food is cooked. This will reduce smoking of hot grease and carbonizing.
Do not leave the unit at high temperature when not in use or during idle periods.

This will cause food particles and grease lm to carbonize.
