INITIAL PILOT LIGHTING

A. TOP BURNERS / RAISED GRIDDLE-BROILER

All Radiance appliances are adjusted and tested before leaving the factory, effectively matching 
them to sea level conditions. Adjustments and calibrations to assure proper operation may be 
necessary on installation to meet local conditions, low gas characteristics, to correct possible 
problems caused by rough handling or vibration during shipment, and are to be performed only by
qualified service personnel. These adjustments are the responsibility of the customer and/or dealer 
and are not covered by our warranty.
Check all gas connections for leaks with a soapy water solution before lighting any pilots. DO NOT 
USE AN OPEN FLAME TO CHECK FOR LEAKS! putting an open flame beside a new gas connec-
tion is extremely dangerous.
Before lighting any pilots, make sure that burner valves and thermostats are turned "off".

All top section burners are equipped with constant-burning pilots. These are to be manually lighted 
immediately after the gas is turned on and the system is checked for leaks. Burner pilots are 
provided for each burner and can be rechecked for proper adjustment. Adjustments can be made 
with a screwdriver to the brass pilot valve accessible through the valve cover.

B. HOT TOP

The pilot should be lighted immediately after the gas is turned on and the system is checked for 
leaks. The pilot can be reached with a long match through the valve cover, or by lifting the plate 
upward and accessing through the top.

C. GRIDDLES

The griddle pilot is ignited in the same fashion as the Hot Top section, using a long lighted match 
placed through the front control panel opening. Adjustment of the pilot flame can be made with a 
screwdriver to the pilot valve, accessible through the valve cover.

For detailed service instructions to adjust by-pass(minimum burner) flame and to recalibrate oven 
and griddle thermostatic controls, see attachment at the end of this manual.

When lighting pilots and checking for leaks, do not

stand with your face close to the combustion chamber.
