INSTALLATION INFRARED/RADIANT COMPACT BROILER

STEP 5: CHECK THE INSTALLATION

1.Check that all screws and bolts are tightened.

2.Check that gas connection has been made correctly.

3.Move the broiler into the final position at which it will be operated.

4.Check that the broiler is level.

5.Check that the appropriate minimum clearances are satisfied (see page 4), including adequate clearance for combustion air to enter the rear of the broiler.

6.Check that there is sufficient clearance to pull out the broiler rack and bottom drip pan.

7.Check that adequate ventilation (fresh air supply and hood exhaust) is available to the room in which the appliance will operate.

8.Wipe clean all surfaces.

STEP 6: CHECK BROILER OPERATION

1.Turn gas supply on. Immediately check all gas connections for leaks using soapy water.

2.Light the pilots (see the appropriate Operation section elsewhere in this manual). Check that the pilot flames are large enough to extend along the flame carrier to the burner surface. If not, adjust the pilots (see page 20).

3.Infrared: Turn on the broiler burners and check for correct flame appearance and height at both the HIGH and LOW settings. When the burners ignite, a blue haze-type flame will cover the surface of the ceramics, but will gradually disappear within two minutes. When the burner control is set to HIGH, the ceramics should glow red and the flame on the surface of the ceramics should be barely visible, with little or no blue haze. When the burner control is set to LOW, the surface of the ceramics should glow very dull red and the flame should have a blue- haze color. The flame should not flutter or “pop.” If necessary, adjust the burners (see page 21) and/or LOW setting (see page 20).

Radiant: Turn the burner control to HIGH and visually check that the burners have ignited. Flames from the tube burner will spread over the stainless steel radiants. The stainless steel radiants will glow red within 3 minutes.

4.Check that gas supply is adequate by simultaneously turning on all burners of all appliances connected to the same gas supply to their highest setting, then again checking that the broiler's pilot and burner flames have correct appearance and height.

5.Turn off all burners and allow the broiler to cool.

STEP 7: WIPE-CLEAN AND SHUT-DOWN APPLIANCE

1.Wipe clean all surfaces.

2.Unless the broiler is to be placed in service immediately, shut off the gas supply.

3.Make sure that a copy of this manual is available to the people who will operate and maintain the broiler.
