other material as approved by local ordinance for gas piping.
2. Gas s upply piping must be ins ide 3/4” diamet er or greater.
3. Use pipe specific sealant for gas piping on all pipe joints. Apply enough sealant to the male threads only.
Sealant must be resistant to the action of liquified petroleum gas (LPG).
4. Ensure all supply piping is clean and free of obstructions, dirt, flakes and pipe sealant compound prior to
installation.
5. All pipe joints must be checked for leaks before lighting. Leak checks should be performed with a soap and
water solution. NEVER CHECK FOR LEAKS WITH AN OPEN FLAME.
Danger: FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD, NEVER use an open flame to check for gas leaks. Fire and explosion

Installing the appliance
Refer to the nameplate: ensure the fuel type and pressure correspond with the nameplate. Do not
connect the appliance to the wrong fuel type and/or pressure.
BE SURE TO MAINTAIN REQUIRED CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLE SURFACES.
The appliance must be placed in its final operational position and leveled front-to-back and side-to-side,
with a waterpass prior to the gas piping installation. Re-check the appliance level after installing the gas
pipe.
Each gas appliance is equipped with a separate gas pressure regulator, which must be installed on the
manifold pipe protruding from the rear of the griddle. Ensure that the regulator is installed in such a way
for the flow arrow stamped on the body of the regulator points toward the griddle. Wrong installation of
the regulator will result in an extremely hazardous condition.

Important: All pipe joints must be checked for leaks before lighting. Leak checks should be performed with a
soap and water solution.
Warning: FIRE HAZARD, This appliance is supplied with a gas pressure regulator.
Failure to properly install the supplied regulator will result in an extremely hazardous condition.
Flow arrow stamped on body of regulator must point toward the appliance.
Vent hole must point UP.
Important: Ensure the fuel is the gas type. If the available fuel does not match the nameplate
specification, exchange the appliance for the correct type.
Important: the appliance and its individual manual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the supply
system piping during any pressure testing of that system at pressures in excess of 5kPa.
Gas pressure setting:
Gas pressure regulator is factory set.
Pilot flame setting:
Remove all burner control knobs, then remove the front panel.
The pilot adjustments are located between the control valves for each set of burners.
Using a small, flat-blade screwdriver, turn the screw clockwise to decrease the flame size, or counter-
clockwise to increase the flame size.
Adjust the pilot flame to 1/4” high. Test for operation: inside and outside sections of the burner must light
without undue delay. Windy conditions may require a higher flame to allow the pilot to remain ignited.
Replace the front panel and all knobs before returning the unit to service.
Adjust burner flame:
Remove all burner control knobs, remove the front panel. Turn on the individual burner on.
Loosen the locking screw on the shutter.

For initial startup, and any time the gas supply has been shut-off, it may take several minutes to light the
pilot while air in the piping and manifolds is cleaned.
The burner control knobs must be turned by hand only. Do not use tools to turn the control knob. If the
knob will not turn by hand, DO NOT attempt to force or repair it. Contact MODENA Call Center for
repairs. Forced or improperly repaired valves pose the risk of fire and or explosion.
Ensure the burners, pilot burner and drip tray are properly installed before attempting to operate.
Lighting the pilot flame
Before lighting the pilot light, smell all around the appliance area for gas. Be sure to smell near floor level
because some gas is heavier than air and will settle to the floor.
For initial startup, and any time the gas supply has been shut-off, it may take several minutes to light the pilot
while air in the piping and manifolds is purged.
The pilot light must be lighted by hand:
Turn all control knobs to the full OFF position.
The pilot is located close to the burner, and is accessible from the top of the appliance.
Be sure the gas shut-off valve is ON and the appliance has had time for the air to be purged from the lines.
Attempt to light the pilot every 15 seconds after the gas valve is turned on.
Light the pilot with a long match or fireplace lighter.
DO NOT use a cigarette lighter.
Shut down instructions:
Turn all burner knobs to OFF.
Turn all pilots OFF.
Turn the main gas supply OFF.
WARNING:
FIRE HAZARD, IF YOU SMELL GAS:

In the event a gas odor is detected, shut down the unit at the main gas shutoff valve and contact your
local gas supplier.
Follow the instructions from the gas supplier immediately.
Preheat the griddle surface to 191°C.
Allow the oil film to cook in for approximately 2 minutes, or until it smokes.
Wipe the griddle surface with a clean damp cloth until all oil is removed.
For new griddles, repeat this procedure 2-3 times until the griddle has a slick, clean surface.
Part 3: How to Use

11
Inspect the unit for cleanliness before use. Clean as necessary: See Cleaning Instructions page.

Picture 4. Burner Control
Cooking Recommendations:
Save energy by turning the control knob off any time the griddle is not in use. Gas burners provide full heat
instantly, making it unnecessary to leave the unit on during intermittent use.
WARNING:
FIRE HAZARD, NEVER attempt to force or repair a stuck control valve.
Contact MODENA Call Center for repairs.
Forced or improperly repaired valves can lead to fire and/or explosion.
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD, If the pilot light should be extinguished, turn off the gas shut-off valve
and remove the grate and drip pan. Allow the appliance to vent for five minutes before attempting to
re-light.
Caution: HOT SURFACE, Exposed surfaces can be hot to the touch and may cause burns.
Gas Conversion
For gas conversion, please call for authorized technicians for change of nozzles for main burner. Pilot also must
be adjusted as following procedure.
Set pilot flame (See fig. 3 below):
Remove all burner control knobs. For Griddle, remove the front panel.
The pilot adjustments are near the control valve for each set of burners.
Griddle:
Adjust the pilot flame to ¼” high. Test for operation: all sections of the burner must light without undue delay.
Windy conditions may require a higher flame to allow the pilot to remain lit.
Replace the front panel and all knobs before returning the appliance to service.
Adjust burner flame (See picture 3 below):
Remove all burner control knobs. For Griddle, remove the front panel.
Turn an individual burner on. For hotplates, the right knob controls the front burner; the left knob controls the
rear burner.
Loosen the locking screw on the shutter.
Turn the shutter to admit more or less air as required. Adjust the air shutter until the flame is mostly blue in
color.
Tighten the locking screw when finished. Replace the front panel and all knobs before returning the unit to
service.
