SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
CAUTION: Potential hazard or unsafe practice could result in minor or moderate injury and product or
property damage.
NOTICE:
• Local codes regarding installation vary greatly from one area to another. The National Fire
Protection Association, Inc., states in its NFPA96 latest edition that local codes are “Authority
Having Jurisdiction” when it comes to requirement for installation of equipment. Therefore,
installation should comply with all local codes.
• This product is intended for commercial use only. Not for residential use.
WARNING:
• Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any
other appliance.
• Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service, or maintenance could lead to property
damage, injury, or death. Read the installation, operating, and maintenance instructions
thoroughly before installing or servicing CPG equipment. This manual must be retained
for future reference.
• Instructions must be posted in a prominent location. All safety precautions must be taken in the
event the user smells gas. Safety information can be obtained from your local gas supplier.
• A factory authorized agent should handle all maintenance and repair. Prior to conducting any
maintenance or repair work contact an authorized service agency.
GAS PRESSURE:
The appliance and its individual shuto valve (to be supplied by user) must be disconnected from the
gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of
⁄ PSI (3.45 kPa). The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its
individual manual shut-o valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test
pressures equal to or less than ⁄ PSI (3.45 kPa).
SERIAL PLATE
NOTE: The serial plate is located
on the right side of the unit.

USER MANUAL
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
THESE UNITS ARE SUITABLE FOR INSTALLATION ON NON-COMBUSTIBLE
SURFACES ONLY. DO NOT INSTALL NEAR ANY COMBUSTIBLE SURFACES.
IMMEDIATELY INSPECT FOR SHIPPING DAMAGE:
All containers should be examined for damage before and during unloading. The freight carrier has
assumed responsibility for its safe transit and delivery. If equipment is received damaged, either apparent
or concealed, a claim must be made with the delivering carrier.
Apparent damage or loss must be noted on the freight bill at the time of delivery. It must then be signed
by the carrier representative (ie: driver). If this is not done, the carrier may refuse the claim. The carrier can
supply the necessary forms.
Concealed damage or loss if not apparent until after equipment is uncrated, a request for inspection
must be made to the carrier within 15 days. The carrier should arrange an inspection. Be certain to retain
all contents and packaging material.
Installation and service should be performed by an authorized service agency. If you have questions
concerning the installation, operation, maintenance, or service of your equipment, visit CPG’s website at
www.CookingPerformanceGroup.com.
Make sure that the floor where you plan to locate the griddle is capable of supporting its weight along with
any accessories. Adequate clearance should be provided for proper operation and servicing. Level the
griddle once you’ve uncrated it in your facility using the adjustable feet.
Proper ventilation is crucial to safe and optimum performance. Ensure that the griddle is installed
underneath a ventilation hood according to all applicable local and national codes. Keep adequate
clearance for air openings into the combustion chamber.
COMBUSTIBLE CLEARANCE REQUIREMENTS: 6" Sides • 6" Back

USER MANUAL
GAS CONNECTION
NOTE:
This griddle ships from the factory configured for areas with an altitude that is lower than 6,500 feet.
1. Ensure gas supply and gas type, as shown on unit serial plate agree. Unit installation must conform
with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, the National Gas Installation Code, CSA-B149.1,
or the Propane Installation Code, CSA-B149.2 as applicable and in accordance with local codes.
2. A manual gas shut-o valve must be installed in the gas supply line ahead of the appliance and
gas pressure regulator for safety and ease in servicing.
3. The gas pressure regulator supplied must be installed on the appliance prior to connecting the
equipment to the gas line. Failure to install a regulator could be potentially hazardous and will
void limited equipment warranty.
4. Pipe threading compound must be resistant to the eects of liquefied petroleum gases.
CAUTION: DO NOT use an open flame to check for leaks. Check all gas piping for leaks with a soap and
water solution prior to operating unit.

USER MANUAL
ADJUSTING PILOT LIGHT
1. Turn o the manual valve and wait 5 minutes to clear gas.
2. Turn all knobs to “OFF” position.
3. Hold an ignition source (match) at pilot. When the flame is established, remove ignition source.
4. Turn burner knobs to “ON”. If the burner does not ignite, promptly open pilot valve more.
If pilot flame appears larger than necessary, turn it down and reset burner ignition.
The pilot flame should be as small as possible but large enough to guarantee reliable ignition
of burners when knobs are turned to “ON”.
LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
The pilot light on the griddle has been pre-set at the factory. A screwdriver may be required for the initial
lighting to adjust the flame for your elevation.
COOKING WITH A CHROME PLATED GRIDDLE
Your new CPG chrome plated griddle has excellent heat retention and heat transfer as well as minimal
flavor transfer. CPG has created a griddle that oers a reduction in energy costs and clean up time,
translating into a great deal of profit savings.
Since the chrome plated griddle has such a high level of heat retention, it acts as a heat shield that does
not allow as much upward radiation, creating a cooler work environment. The significant amount of heat
retained on the chrome griddle also allows for a rapid heat transfer, which produces faster cook times at
lower temperatures.
Unlike steel plate griddles, the chrome plate on the griddle prevents food particles from getting trapped
on the cooking surface, thus preventing flavor transfer. In other words, your pancakes for breakfast will
not taste like last night's salmon.
LIGHTING PILOT LIGHT:
1. Select the burner required, depress and turn the corresponding gas control knob
counter-clockwise to “PILOT” position.
2. With the gas control knob depressed, manually light pilot burner.
3. Release gas control knob approximately 10-20 seconds after lighting pilot burner.
4. Pilot burner should stay lit. Provided it does not, repeat steps 2 and 3.
5. Rotate gas control knob counter-clockwise to desired temperature mark.
6. The main burner will now be ignited automatically.
NOTE: If you want the pilot to remain ON:
DO NOT move the knob back towards "OFF" from the pilot.
If you want to extinguish the pilot:
Turn the knob back to the "OFF" position.

USER MANUAL
NOTE: Seasoning is not required, but the below procedure may be done to improve
the non-stick qualities of the cooking surface.
1. Heat the griddle to a 300-350°F (150-180°C) and pour on a small amount of cooking oil,
about 1 oz. (30cc) per square foot of surface.
2. Spread the oil over the entire griddle surface with a cloth to create a thin film.
3. Wipe o any excess oil with a clean lint free cloth.
4. Repeat this procedure 2 times.
1. Turn the burners on to the desired temperature for about 15-20 minutes before cooking
for preheating. We recommend the operating temperature for a chrome griddle to be
10-15°F lower than standard griddles. Start with lower temperatures and increase as necessary.
2. If dierent temperature settings are to be used, adjoining areas should be set at progressively
higher temperatures using the lowest temperatures on the outside burners.
3. Upon completion of each batch of food, scrape the work area of the griddle clean with
the blade scraper.
SEASONING GRIDDLE
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
• The finish on chrome-plated griddles is delicate and must be handled with care. Be sure to follow
suggested guidelines for care and maintenance to prevent voiding the warranty.
• Please note that the griddle is NOT intended for use where the surface will be hacked, hit,
cut, or chopped on. DAMAGE CAUSED BY THIS IS IRREPARABLE.
