e Garland Xpress Grill is a semi-automatic cooking

following the manual, two-handed initiation of the
cooking cycle, and the upper platen is raised automatically
upon completion of the cooking cycle.
When two sided cooki ng, the area between t he upper
platen and t he griddle plate should be regarded as a
“danger zone.” During two sided cooking the operator
must not be within t his danger zone. When used as a
flat grill, then this area is no longer a danger zone, the
platens do not move.
For whatever reason, be it cleaning, maintenance, or
normal operation, any exposed person must use extreme
caution if within this danger zone.
In two side cooking the upper platen remains in the
lowered position by nature of its own weight. It is not
locked down. It can be raised by lifting up on the handle
on the front of the platen.

noise equivalent to a continuous A weighted sound
pressure level of 73dB(A).
