Rating Plate
All burner input ratings are shown on the name/rating plate of each range which can be located behind the lower front kick panel, (located below oven door). To access, remove two
(2) fasteners securing the panel shut.
For proper operation, the fuel information on the data plate of your new equipment must match your fuel supply.
When corresponding with the factory or equipment dealer regarding service problems or replacement parts, be sure to refer to the particular unit by the correct model number, including prefix and suffix letters and numbers and serial number. The rating plate affixed to the unit contains this information.
Safety
It is essential that the instructions in this booklet are strictly followed for the safe and economical operation of the equipment. If it is known or suspected that a fault exists on the appliance then it must not be used until the fault is rectified by a competent person.
Power Failure Note: In the event of a power failure, no attempt should be made to operate the oven. The oven is gas operated but has electrical features, motor and door switches.
Product Usage
The top of the range is designed for flexibility and the preparation of numerous types of products.
Preparation of soups, stocks and sauces are done on a hot top where slow even cooking is desirable. Heating larger quantities of food can be done more efficiently than heating small quantities. Pots and pans should be covered whenever possible to reduce energy consumption.
High acid sauces, such as tomato should be cooked in stainless steel vessels rather than aluminum since stainless will not react chemically. Light coloured sauces may be dicoloured by the aluminum especially if stirred with a metal spoon. Salty water may pit aluminum vessels if used frequently.
INSTALLATION
General Information
Before assembly and connection, check gas supply.
•The type of gas for which the unit is equipped is stamped on the name/rating plate. Connect a unit stamped “NAT” only to natural gas, and a unit stamped “PRO” only to propane.
•In a new installation, have the gas authorities check meter size and piping to ensure that the gas supply will deliver sufficient pressure to operate the unit properly.
•When adding or replacing equipment, have gas authorities check gas pressure to ensure that the existing meter and piping will supply fuel to the appliance with no more than 0.5 inch water column pressure drop during operation.
•Before turning on the main gas supply, check the unit to be certain that all the controls are in the “OFF” position.
•When checking gas pressure, be sure that all other equipment on the same gas line is turned “ON.” A preset gas pressure regulator is supplied with GARLAND Restaurant Series Equipment. It may be necessary to adjust the regulator to deliver fuel at the pressure shown on the rating plate.
•In Canada, the installation must comply with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the Installation Codes for Gas Burning Appliances and Equipment CAN/
