are required, refer to the time or temperature programming sections in this manual.
INSTALLATION
1. Plug unit into dedicated 120V A.C. line with 20AMP receptacle.
2. DO NOT plug into 220V line. Doing so will damage the unit and void the warranty.
3. Each machine has been properly wired and inspected at the factory for operation on the

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Make sure unit is plugged into 20AMP receptacle and is on a dedicated 120V A.C. line.
1. Turn unit on by placing switch in "ON" position. For approximately 3 seconds the current
grill setpoint temperature will display. After this time, the "Heat On" indicator will remain lit
and all four displays will fl ash indicating the unit is heating. When the preset temperature is
reached, the "Heat On" light will turn off, all four displays will stop fl ashing, and 3 beeps will

The display time will start to count down from the programmed time to "0:00." The countdown
may be stopped at any time by pressing and releasing the same "START/STOP" button.
The display will return to the programmed time.

Note: The right and left sides will operate independently of each other. All timers can be in
operation at the same time. The "0:00" display will show which cooking area is timed out.

left display.
2. After 3 seconds, the "Heat On" indicator will remain lit and all four time displays will fl ash
