To “dry out” the hot plate, set the
thermostat dial at 250°F and turn
on the power switch. Allow unit to
cycle at least 15 minutes at this
heat level. Reset the thermostat
to 350°F allowing the same time.
Continue doing this until you
reach 850°F then allow the unit
to maintain this temperature for a
minimum of 4 hours. More time
may be required if the unit has to
operate in a moist enviroment

To “dry out” the frenchplate, set
the three-heat switch to the “LO”
setting and turn on the power
switch. Allow unit to run at least
15 minutes at this heat level.
Reset the three-heat switch to
“MED” and allow the same time.
Reset to the “HI” position. When
you reach position 3, allow the unit
to maintain this temperature for a
minimum of 4 hours. More time
may be required if the unit has to
operate in a moist enviorment

To “dry out” the griddle, set the
thermostat to 250°F and turn
on the power switch. Allow
the unit to cycle at least 15
minutes at this setting. Reset
the thermostat to 350°F
allow the same time. Reset
the thermostat to 450°F and
allow the unit to maintain the
temperature for a minimum
of 4 hours. More time may
be required if the unit has to
operate in a moist enviroment.

If unit is out of use for three or more days, a one-hour preheat schedule should be used, especially when

exposed to high humidity and/or cool temperatures.

NOTICE: During the rst few hours of operation you may notice a small amount of smoke & odor coming from the range.

This is normal for a new range and will disappear after the rst few hours of use.

TO REMOVE THE UNIT FROM THE SKID AND MOVE IT TO THE PLACE OF
INSTALLATION.

ANY STAND, COUNTER OR OTHER DEVICE ON WHICH RANGE WILL BE
LOCATED MUST BE DESIGNED TO SUPPORT THE WEIGHT OF THE OVEN.

SHIPPING STRAPS ARE UNDER TENSION AND CAN SNAP BACK WHEN CUT.

Remove range from skid and place in intended location.

Installing the Legs

Legs ship standard with all ranges.

To install the 6-inch legs, remove
the legs from the packing, place
some cardboard on the oor and
