IMPORTANT

THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTION TO THE ACCU-MISER REQUIRES A CIRCUIT BREAKER/ FUSED DISCONNECT. THE REQUIRED RATING OF THE BREAKER VARIES ACCORDING TO THE MODEL OF GRIDDLE BEING INSTALLED. REFER TO THE GRIDDLE’S DATA PLATE, AND TO THE ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS TABLE (PAGE 2).

CONSULT ALL APPLICABLE NATIONAL AND LOCAL CODES FOR FURTHER ELECTRICAL CONNECTION REQUIREMENTS.

1.Before proceeding with the electrical connections, check the following:

a.Check that the supply wire size is adequate.

b.Check that the circuit breaker/fused disconnect is present, and of the correct rating.

If necessary, refer to the griddle’s data plate and to the Electrical Specifications table (Page 2).

WARNING

ENSURE THAT THE CIRCUIT BREAKER/FUSED DISCONNECT IS IN THE “OFF” POSITION BEFORE PROCEEDING.

2. Insert the power cord plug into its receptacle.

E.Initial Cleaning

WARNING

ENSURE THAT ELECTRICAL POWER TO THE GRIDDLE HAS BEEN DISCONNECTED BEFORE CLEANING THE UNIT.

1.The surface of the griddle plate is coated with a rust-preventive material to protect it during shipment. Clean this material from the griddle plate with a non-flammable grease solvent.

2.Wash the griddle with warm water and a mild detergent.

3.Rinse with a damp cloth, then wipe the griddle dry.

4.Ensure that the griddle is completely dry before restoring electrical power to the unit.

F.Testing the Installation

IMPORTANT

BEFORE TESTING THE INSTALLATION, FAMILIARIZE YOURSELF WITH THE ACCU- MISER OPERATING CONTROLS (SECTION 3A).

1.Ensure that the initial cleaning of the griddle has been performed, as outlined in Step E above.

2.Turn all rocker ON/OFF switches to the OFF position.

3.Rotate all thermostat control knobs counterclockwise to their lowest temperature setting.

4.Switch on the circuit breaker/fused disconnect.

5.Perform the following steps for each set of controls (2 sets for AM24SS, 3 sets for AM36SS). If any of these tests fail, contact your Authorized Service Agent.

a.Switch the rocker ON/OFF switch to the ON position.

b.Rotate the thermostat control knob clockwise to a setting of 200°F (93°C).

c.Check that the heating indicator light located beneath the thermostat control knob illuminates.

d.Wait for a few minutes; then, check that the zone of the griddle plate that corresponds to the controls has begun to heat.

e.Wait for a few minutes to check that the heating indicator light turns off, showing that the zone has reached the proper temperature.

f.Rotate the thermostat control knob back to its lowest setting. Switch the rocker ON/ OFF switch to OFF.
