The State of California enacted the California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic
Enforcement Act of 1986, (Prop. 65), which “prohibits any person in the course
of doing business from knowingly and intentionally exposing any individual to
a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer or reproductive
toxicity without first giving clear and reasonable warning to such individuals.”
The Governor’s Scientific Advisory Panel added Carbon Monoxide to the list of
hazardous chemicals known to cause reproductive harm.
In order to establish full compliance with Proposition 65, a yellow warning label has
been attached to each gas fired unit manufactured by AccuTemp Products,Inc.
Carbon monoxide would not be present in concentrations that would pose a
“significant risk” to the consumer when the equipment is installed, operated and
maintained as follows:
1. Installed in accordance with all local codes, or in the absence of local codes,
with the current National Fuel Gas Code Z223.1, latest addenda.
2. Installed under a properly designed and operating exhaust hood.
3. Connected to the type of gas for which the unit is equipped.

3.10.2 FLAME SENSE RECTIFICATION
The Accu-Steam Gas Griddle utilizes a flame
sensing circuit to determine if the system has
proper combustion. When the system is turned
on, gas is sent to the burner and an electronic
ignition tries to ignite the burner. The ignition
module then checks to see if flame is
established in the burner.
If the flame sense feedback is within the proper
range the system will stay on until the control
board ceases the call for heat.
The ignition module continues to monitor the
voltage and as long as its within the proper
range the burner will stay on. If the flame sense
reading falls below the threshold of 0.38 DCµA
(microamperes) the griddle will go into lock
out and will stop heating. The external signal
for a lock-out is a 4 second flash on the FAULT
light.
1. The flame sense should be monitored and
recorded as part of the install.
2. To test for flame sense, Disconnect the
orange wire from the flame sense.
3. Connect the probes of an multimeter
capable of reading DCµA (DC micro-
amperes) to the flame sensor and orange
wire.
4. Run the unit and monitor the reading.
5. If the gas pressure is set correctly for the
gas type the reading should be 4 to 6
DCµA.
3.10.3 IGNITION TROUBLESHOOTING
Should the unit trigger an ignition lockout
during installation and testing, verify the
following
1. Verify the flame sense is above 0.38 DCµA.
a. If the reading is zero, ensure the flame
sense is not grounded.
b. If the reading fluctuates, check for drafts
that could be causing an unstable flame or
loose venturi connections to the burners
c. Ensure the flame sense is properly placed to
be engulfed by flame.
2. Double check the gas hose connection and
verify pressure.
a. Ensure the dynamic pressure is set to 5
Inches Water Column.
b. Test the unit when the supply is under
maximum load, ensure the static and
dynamic pressures do not fluctuate.
c. If an external regulator is connected to the
gas line, ensure its breathing vent is clear.
3. Confirm the ignition and ground probes are
correctly spaced.
a. The probes should have a gap of 0.125
±.020.

4. OPERATION
RISKS RESULTING FROM CONTACT WITH
VERY HOT OBJECT:
HOT
Hot areas may form during the cooking
process, especially on the cookware, grills
and the inner side of the door. Use protective
gloves whenever handling hot objects.
During the cooking process, do not handle
cookware containing liquids or liquid
foodstus located above eye level. Danger of
burns.
Be sure all operators read, understand
and follow the information contained in this
manual including caution warnings, operating
instructions and safety instructions.
Never use wet or damp gloves as moisture
can conduct heat quickly.
Keep the floor in front of the equipment
clean and dry. If spills occur, clean immediately
to avoid potential injuries.
Do not use abrasive (or steel) materials,
such as wire brushes, metal scouring pads to
clean the griddle surface
4.1 OPERATION INTRODUCTION
The ACCU-STEAM G2™ griddle is constructed
and uses technology like no other griddle in
the world. The stainless steel cooking surface
is heated by steam. The griddle steam chamber
requires no additional liquid or maintenance.
A temperature sensor to sense temperature
and an over-temperature safety shutdown
system are part of the griddle assembly.
At temperatures below 212°F (100°C), the
chamber is actually in a vacuum, similar to
that of a canning jar. At temperatures above
212°F (100°C), the chamber operates under
pressure. The temperature sensor senses the
temperature of the steam and reports this
data to the temperature control electronics,
which energizes the heating system. This
system maintains the griddle cooking surface
temperatures to within ± 5°F (2.7°C) over the
entire cooking surface and provides a near
instant temperature recovery, even in the same
spot on the griddle, when turning food in
place.
