NOTE
INSTALLATION
SITING
The installer must ensure that all regulations are met and that there is an
unobstructed minimum distance of 300mm from the top of the flue to the extraction
canopy, which must be of non-combustible material.
A combustion check should be carried out along with a check of flame stability. If
these are found to be compromised or unstable then the appliance must be
positioned lower.
Dirty extraction filters and drip trays may become a fire hazard due to a build up of
grease/fat and also drip down onto equipment below. Regular cleaning of extraction
filters and drip trays MUST be carried out and it’s the installer’s responsibility to
make the operator aware of this.
The appliance should be installed on a level surface ensuring the unit is stable and
firmly located.
Any partitions, walls or kitchen furniture in close proximity must be of non-
combustible materials and not be closer than 100mm from the sides and rear of the
flue.
There must be a minimum of 600mm clearance from the front of the appliance in
which to operate the appliance.
If the appliance is installed above or adjacent to a heat source the maximum
temperature surrounding the unit must be no greater than 80ºC. The installer will
need to use an insulated shelf and install heat shields to protect the unit as required.
GAS SUPPLY AND CONNECTION
Connection is at the rear of the unit via a R½ male thread.
Connection shall comply with local regulations.
The hose shall be periodically examined and replaced as necessary.
When making the connection to the appliance an isolating cock should be fitted into
the supply line close to the unit, for emergency shutdown or servicing purposes.
SUPPLY PRESSURES
The Salamander grills are un-governed appliances and connect directly to the
relevant gas supply. See above table for inlet pressures.
If necessary to gain access to the gas pressure test nipple remove the access panel
on the right hand side of the appliance. The nipple is situated fitted to the top of the
valve manifold.
Remove the blanking screw and attach a pressure gauge to the boss of the test
nipple and check inlet pressure.
For those destination countries where the supply pressure exceeds the supply
pressures given in the Technical Data above a regulator must be fitted and the
supply pressure set to the pressures detailed.
ACCESSORIES (see page 12)
A bench stand (GR3/BS, GR7/BS), wall shelf (GR3/WS, GR7/WS) and floor stand
(GR3/FS, GR7/FS) are optional accessories available for these units. Should an alternative
to these accessories be used, please ensure that the mounting is stable and of a non-
combustible material.

A branding plate and drip tray for the GR3 model are available as an accessory part
number APB03.
INSTRUCTION TO USER
Ensure that the person responsible understands how to light, safely operate, clean and
shutdown the appliance and is made aware of the position and operation of the gas
isolating cock in the event of an emergency.
USER INSTRUCTION
APPLIANCE USE
This appliance is only for professional use and should only be used by qualified personnel.
Ensure that the person responsible understands how to light, safely operate, clean and
shutdown the appliance and is made aware of the position and operation of the gas
isolating cock in the event of an emergency.
Ensure that all controls have free and easy movement, if not contact a qualified service
engineer.
This appliance is intended to be used for grilling or culinary preparations that cook or brown
by means of radiant heat and MUST NOT be used for any other purpose.
Operators of the appliance must not leave combustible materials directly in front of the
appliance when in use.
LIGHTING SEQUENCE
Open the main gas cock.
Push in the control knob then rotate anti-clockwise to the spark position as marked
on the control knob to allow gas through to the burner. Manually light the gas at the
burner face using a taper or piezo ignitor wand. Note: The appliance can only be lit
when the control knob is in this position.
On establishing a flame at the burner, keep the knob depressed for approximately
15 seconds then release. The burner should remain lit.
SHUT DOWN
To shut down the appliance rotate all control knobs clockwise to the OFF position. The gas
supply stopcock or bottle valve should now be closed.
USING THE APPLIANCE
The appliance can be used with or without the branding grid.
The toast rack is heavy and it is not recommended to remove the rack during
service with product or trays placed on the rack.
It is advisable that product to be toasted be placed on a suitable tray which is then
placed on the rack whilst in a flat position.
If using to gratinate the rack needs to be positioned flat and at a height that best suits the
application. Additional temperature control can be obtained from the setting of the control
knob.
The branding grid is very heavy and is placed onto the toast rack.
The locating holes in the branding plate align with the locating pins on the toast
rack.
Do not attempt to reposition the height of the branding plate and rack when the
appliance is hot.

IS476 ECN4597

For grilling, the best results are obtained with the branding plate in an angled position to
allow for drainage of fats and juices to be collected in the debris tray.
When grilling the product should be handled with suitable tongs.
The use of branding plates requires pre-heating to obtain successful results. It is suggested
the branding plate is pre-heated for at least 15 minutes.
Loading of product to be cooked on the shelves or branding plate must not exceed the
point where the product cannot be safely manipulated during the cooking process.
Parts of the toast rack, branding grid, debris tray and crumb tray can become
very hot during service. Care must be taken to avoid injury.
Grilling
Any food product to be cooked on the branding plate must be placed directly with the aid of
suitable tongs to prevent injury from burns. Cooked food must be removed with tongs whilst
the appliance is in operation.
If the appliance is to be left unattended for long periods, then the appliance burner should
be reduced to the lowest position or turned off.
Do not place any container, plate or anything else on top of the appliance hood as this may
cause an obstruction to the flue gasses.
DO not place any combustible material on the top of the appliance hood.
CLEANING
Ensure the appliance is cool and the gas supply is isolated before commencing cleaning.
After use wash the unit down with a warm detergent solution.
All users should be aware of the importance of maintaining a clean oven cavity and
grill pans and or drip trays in order to prevent a possible fire hazard.
Do not use abrasives on stainless steel or enamelled parts.
Do not use any products containing chlorine or hydrochloric acid to clean stainless
steel surfaces.
Do not clean the appliance using a water jet.
ROUTINE CLEANING
It is important that users of the appliance shall systematically check and clean down
as necessary areas of the grill that have accumulated oils, fats and other
combustible debris from previuos cooking.
This is to prevent the potential risk of fire.
Cleaning of the appliance and its parts must be done when the appliance is cold and
before the start of service.
Areas to check
Branding plate –Regulary remove any debris build up on brander grid.
Debris collecting tray –The trays will need to be emptied and cleaned before use of
debris, oils and fats that may have accumulated from previos cooking.
Failure to routinely clean debris from trays may lead to a risk of fire.
It may be necessary to empty frequently during heavy usage of the appliance.
The tray is likely to be hot and should be handled with care and with heat resistant gloves.
Cooking compartment –When the appliance has cooled remove the toast rack, branding
plate and crumb tray. Clean the cavity as necessary of any build up of debris, oils and fats.
Note –Do not allow the branding grid tray to fill as handling will become difficult and
spillage likely to occur.
