General
The range is designed to provide, well-regulated, uniform heat throughout the oven and over
the surface units. The oven and surface units should be thoroughly preheated before being
used. It is advantageous from an operating cost standpoint to operate with the switches and/or
thermostats set at the lowest position that will satisfactorily perform the cooking being done.
Electric range tops consist of several arrangements, depending upon the specific models
purchased.
Options include
12" x24" hot plates
Round speed units
Griddles
Three position switches, thermostats, or infinite controls independently control these units.
All thermostats are used in conjunction with a red indicator or pilot lamp. When the light is on
the elements are energized and bringing the plate to the temperature set on the thermostat.
When the light is off the plate has reached the temperature set on the thermostat. Griddle pilot
lights should be allowed to cycle a least twice before usage.
Recommended Usage:
12"x 24" hot plates - Heavy stockpots and kettles.
Round speed units - Light duty sauce pans and small stockpots. (NOT recommended for large
stockpots.)
Griddles - Used for grilling product directly on surface.
CAUTION
All hot plates and speed units should be turned to
the low or off position when not in use. Allowing
these elements to stay in the full on or high
position with nothing on top to absorb and
dissipate the heat is detrimental to element life.
