Equipment Description
Exterior Construction
The griddle dimensions are 17". (43.18cm) High, 30" (76.20cm) deep,
and width depends on the actual model number.
The sides, bottom, and rear wall are constructed of double wall
stainless steel, which allows closer installation to combustible
surfaces.
The griddle surface is made of 1 in. thick, highly polished steel to
reduce hot and cold spots, recovery problems, warping, and ensure
even heat to the edges of the griddle.
Controls
Each twelve-inch section has its own temperature selector switch that
snaps into place to lock in any temperature from 175°F(79°C) to
450°F(232°C) in 25°increments.
Each twelve-inch section of the griddle is controlled by an area
sensitive RTD probe, which can sense and react to a temperature
change of +/- 4°F(-16°C).
Each twelve-inch section has a set of 6 kW elements for high
efficiency, quick recovery and outstanding performance
Technical
The Electric/Seletronic Marine Griddle operates on either 208/240V
or 480V. This must be specified when ordering.
Minimum clearances: 2” from side and back.

Unpacking
Receiving the Griddle
Upon receipt, check for freight damage, both visible and concealed. Visible damage should
be noted on the freight bill at the time of delivery and signed by the carrier's agent.
Concealed loss or damage means loss or damage which does not become apparent until
the merchandise has been unpacked. If concealed loss or damage is discovered upon
unpacking, make a written request for inspection by the carrier's agent within 15 days of
delivery. All packing material should be kept for inspection. Do not return damaged
merchandise to Star Manufacturing International. File your claim with the carrier.

Electrical Connection
There is one power supply connection on the 24, 36, and 48-inch griddles. There are two power
supply connections on 60 and 72-inch griddles. Refer to the power supply chart below, for proper
power supply size.
There is (1) one 1 1/4-inch conduit knockout on 24, 36 and 48-inch griddles located at the rear of the
griddle, through the back and the bottom of the griddle body. There are (2) two 1 1/4-inch conduit
knockouts provided on the 60 and 72-inch griddles. Use a supply wire suitable for at least 194°F
(90°C).
This Selectronic-Marine griddle is shipped from the factory wired for 208/240 or 480 volts. The
208/240 griddle is a dual voltage design. Jumper wires on a terminal strip next to the main power
supply connection determine the griddle voltage. For a 208-volt power supply, leave the jumpers in
place. For a 240-volt power supply disconnect the jumpers as indicated on the tag on the terminal
strip. The 480-volt griddle can be operated on 480 volts only and must be specified when ordering.
Phasing
All griddles are shipped from the factory set up for a three-phase service. Please refer to the power
supply chart below for conversions to single-phase service.

Initial Start Up
NOTICE During the first few hours of operation you may notice a small
amount of smoke coming from the griddle surface, and a faint
odor from the smoke. This is normal for a new unit and will
disappear after the first few hours of use.
CAUTION ALWAYS KEEP THE AREA NEAR THE APPLIANCE FREE FROM
COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS.
CAUTION KEEP FLOOR IN FRONT OF EQUIPMENT CLEAN AND DRY. IF
SPILLS OCCUR, CLEAN IMMEDIATELY, TO AVOID THE
DANGER OF SLIPS OR FALLS.
Pre-Power On
Before starting the griddle for the first time, clean the griddle body and
cooking surface.
Use a mild soap and water solution, then rinse with clear water and dry.
Turning the Power On
Set the main power switch, located at the far left of the control panel, to the
"ON" (up) position (there are two "ON" switches on 5' and 6' griddles).
Set each cooking section's power switch, located next to each temperature
dial, to the "ON" (up) position.
Set the temperature dials to 200°F (93°C).
Heat the griddle at 200°F (93°C) for 2 hours to evaporate any moisture that
may be in the elements.
After 2 hours at 200°F (93°C), turn the griddle temperature up to 350°F
(177°C) for 30 minutes.
After the griddle reaches 350°F (177°C) for 30 minutes, turn the griddle up
another 50°F (10°C) for another ½ hour and repeat this until the griddle is at
450°F (232°C) for 30 minutes.
The griddle may emit a small amount of smoke as the cooking surface
passes the 300°F (149°C) point. Do not be alarmed, the smoke is caused by
oils associated with the manufacturing process and will stop when the griddle
reaches 350°F (177°C).
Seasoning the Cooking Surface
The cooking surface must be "seasoned" in order to eliminate product
sticking during cooking.
To season, heat the griddle to 250°F (121°C).
Once at 250°F (121°C), coat the cooking surface with non-salted vegetable
oil.
Allow the griddle to stand at 250°F (121°C) until the cooking surface looks
dry then coat it again.
Heat the griddle to 350°F (177°C) and repeat the procedure.
