MAINTENANCE

WARNING: THE GRIDDLE AND ITS PARTS ARE HOT. USE CARE WHEN OPERATING, CLEANING AND SERVICING THE GRIDDLE.

WARNING: UNPLUG THE POWER CORD BEFORE PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE ON THE GRIDDLE.

A properly operated griddle should require practically no service. If the griddle appears to require service, before calling the service agency, check that personnel are following the procedures described in this manual.

The following suggestions may be helpful:

1.Burner air shutter openings must be kept clean.

2.Burner ports must be kept clean. To clean burners, boil them in a detergent and water solution for 15-20 minutes, then either brush with a wire brush or clean gas ports with a sharp-pointed metal instrument to ensure open ports. Use caution not to enlarge or damage ports.

3.The open burner pilot flash tubes and the burner ignition port must be clear for burners to ignite properly from the pilot.

Other Checks to be Made Before Calling the Servicer

2.Make sure the electric supply is on.

3.Make sure the griddle is plugged in.

4.On standard models, make sure the pilot light is lit.
