OPERATION
LIGHTING THE PILOTS
If one or more of the burners does not ignite, check that the pilot(s) are lit. The controls for the pilots are
located on the front of the griddle, behind the lower front panel door (see Figure 12 on page 20). To light the
pilot(s), do the following:
1. Turn all griddle-thermostat controls to the “OFF” position.
2. Open the grease/control door at the bottom of the front of the griddle.
3. Turn the main shut-off valve to the “ON” position (if it is not already ON).
4. For each pilot, press and hold the red pilot button and light the pilot (either with a match, or, on models
with electronic ignition, by pressing the electronic ignition button to generate a spark). Continue to hold
the pilot button for 45 seconds, or until the pilot remains lit. Note that 24" models have one pilot, 36" &
48" models have two pilots, and 60" models have three pilots (one pilot and one shut-off valve in one
burner compartment, and two pilots and one shut-off valve in a second burner compartment). Note that
the left pilot must be lit before the right pilot can be lit.
5. If a pilot is extinguished or the gas supply is interrupted, wait five minutes and repeat the above steps.
6. Turn all griddle thermostat controls to the “ON” position to check that the pilots will ignite the burners.

To shut down the griddle for an extended period (or before disconnecting the gas supply), turn all the burner
