THERMOSTAT CALIBRATION

Calibration is not covered under warranty.

Tools: Accurate surface thermometer

Standard screwdriver

1.Turn the exhaust system ON.

2.Turn on the griddle with thermostat set at 300°F. Allow burners to cycle on and off three times. (Approximately 60 minutes.)

3.Place accurate thermometer on surface over thermostat bulb. Use the inverted “V” on the front of the griddle plate to locate thermostat bulb. Place the surface thermometer about half waytoward the back of the plate.

4.When burners cycle off, the griddle is up to temperature. If temperature is within 25°F of thermostat setting, remove knob. Loosen four screws in the thermostat dial plate. Replace knob. Reset the dial plate to match the thermometer reading.

Thermostat calibration

Thermostat knob removed to reveal calibration screws.

5.Remove the knob to tighten screws on dial plate and replace the knob.

For calibration over a 50°F difference, contact a qualified service company.

CONDITIONING THE

MIRACLEAN® GRIDDLE PLATE

The Miraclean® Griddle plate has been “seasoned” at the factory. The Miraclean® surface when heated creates a thin layer of chrome oxide which acts as a releasing agent for food product. You may feel that you need to recondition your griddle surface.

1.Follow cleaning instructions on page 5.

2.Heat the MIRACLEAN® to 400°F for one hour.

3.Lower thermostat to 350°F, allowing the MIRACLEAN® to cool to about 350°F, as is evident when griddle cycles on or surface thermometer indicates correct temperature.

4.Lightly coat the MIRACLEAN® surface with griddle oil.

NOTE: Despite the food releasing properties, the chrome surface is not a true “non-stick” surface. For best cooking results and product appearance, use griddle oil for products that require the surface to be conditioned.
