GENERAL OPERATIONAL NOTES
Carefully read the description of the charbroiler operation on the
specification sheet.
Do NOT use this appliance if it has been submerged in water. Call a qualified
technician to examine the appliance and to service or replace any component
which has been submerged. Burners which have been allowed to become wet must
be thoroughly dried before use.
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 burner control knobs must be turned by hand only. Never use tools to turn
the control knob. If the knob will not turn by hand, DO NOT attempt to force
or repair it. Contact your Authorized Wells Service Agency for repairs. Forced
or improperly repaired valves pose the risk of fire and/or explosion.
Make sure 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:
Remove grates. Turn all control knobs to the full OFF position. Wait 5
minutes.
The pilot is located adjacent to the burner, and is accessible from the top of
the unit.
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.
Reinstall grates
SHUT DOWN INSTRUCTIONS
Turn all burner knobs to OFF.
Turn all pilots OFF.
Turn the main gas supply OFF.
OPERATION
