INTRODUCTION

What is Live-Action Display Cooking
Live-Action Display Cooking is performed by a chef in front of an audience where the chef creates theater and participation by engaging people with the sights, sounds and flavors of freshly prepared food. Every culture cooks foods in an open kitchen or outdoors where food preparation is equal parts flavor and entertainment, and the cooking equipment is as varied as our culture such as American barbecue, French rotisserie and Brazilian churrasco, to Chinese wok and Japanese teppan cooking.
A High Volume Plancha with Smart HeatTM Technology
Of the thousands of variations of display cooking equipment a chef can employ, one of the most versatile cooking platforms is the heated flat plancha or teppan griddle plate. Unfortunately when used indoors, this style of griddle plate inevitably produces grease laden air which is an undesirable byproduct that can be a health hazard to both the chef and the audience. The conventional way of dealing with this issue is to install ventilation devices such as a grease hood above the griddle. This hood is connected to an air/grease duct that leads to the outside, providing the air passage through which grease laden air can be removed by a suction motor (often installed at the end of the air duct).

Cleaning - The Cooking Surface
There are several methods for cleaning the cooking surface. The following guidelines are offered as a `best practice' method for the ElevationTM 40E Plancha.
1. Using a scraper or spatula, scrape and remove loose debris by sweeping into the spillover slot.
2. While the cooking surface is still warm, scrub the surface with a grill pad with a small amount of oil in a circular motion, using a grill pad holder to maintain even pressure on the pad.
3. For heavy carbon buildup, it may be necessary to use a grill screen in combination with the grill pad.
4. Thoroughly wipe the surface with a terry cloth towel to remove any debris from the grill pad and grill screen.
5. Apply a thin layer of vegetable oil over the entire surface with a clean cloth to condition the steel surface and help prevent rusting.

MAINTENANCE

Cleaning - Removing and Washing Spillover Pan and Drawer

Establish a daily cleaning cycle to keep the spillover pan and enclosure area clean and free of debris. Empty and clean the spillover pan often to avoid unnecessary overflow of the spillover pan.
1. To remove the spillover pan, open the waste door and remove the pan. Use caution and keep the pan level to prevent spills.
2. Return a clean pan to the drawer and close the waste door.
3. Remove the pan daily for cleaning inside the enclosure. To remove the pan, open the waste door by grasping the bottom slot and pull out while lowering the door. Throughly clean inside the enclosure and the spillover slot.

Open waste door and remove spillover pan.

Throughly clean inside the enclosure and the spillover slot.

Remove the spillover pan to clean inside the enclosure and under the pan daily.

R
Cleaning - Drip Pan
Establish a regular cleaning schedule to ensure all food debris and spills are cleaned daily.
1. Using terry cloth or paper towels, clean the drip pan area around the cooking surface to remove oil and food debris. Where necessary, use warm soapy water to soften and remove debris.

ElevationTM 40E Plancha
MAINTENANCE

Clean the stainless steel drip pan area under the cooking surface.

Always use a non-abrasive cleaner when cleaning stainless steel areas to avoid scratching, dulling or damaging the surfaces.

MAINTENANCE

Cleaning - Stainless Steel Top, Sides and Back Panels

Regularly clean the exterior stainless steel panels and keep the LED display panel area clean and free of food splatters. Also, check regularly under the unit to ensure there is no excess lint or debris
blocking airflow from the discharge fans. Regular cleaning will preserve the integrity of the display control surface and overall
appearance of the unit.

1. Wipe exposed, cleanable stainless steel surfaces when cool with a mild detergent and warm water. Stubborn residue spots should be soaked with warm soapy water and rubbed clean with a terry cloth or paper towel. Dry thoroughly with a clean cloth.
2. Always rub stainless steel in the direction of the metal grain to prevent scratching. Use a stainless steel cleaner if you want a high shine. Never use abrasive scour pads or steel wool on stainless steel.
3. The control panel surface is made from a plastic material and requires delicate cleaning. Use warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Do not power wash, do not use abrasive scour pads or solvent cleaners since these will damage the control panel.
4. Never spray the louvered areas or control panel with steam or water, this will allow moisture into the control cavity which could damage electrical components.

Clean the stainless steel and display area with a terry cloth or paper towels and warm soapy water. Never power wash or use abrasive cleaning pads.
Clean the inlet air louvers on each side and make sure there is no excess build-up of lint or dirt. Use a brush as necessary to remove debris from the louver area.

Inspect all exterior surfaces as
often as possible to ensure they
are kept clean and there is no debris blocking airflow across the side louvers or bottom fan screens.

Clean the inlet air louvers on back and make sure there is no excess build-up of lint or dirt. Use a brush as necessary to remove debris from the louver area.

TROUBLESHOOTING

TROUBLESHOOTING ISSUES

This section describes how to solve common problems you may encounter when using your ElevationTM 40E Plancha. Many problems have simple solutions.

#1 Display Screen Will Not Respond
1. Ensure the unit is plugged into a correct voltage and amperage electrical circuit. (See Appedix 3) 2. If a cord and plug is installed, have a certified electrician check the cord wiring has not become dislodged from inside the plug
thereby preventing a secure electrical connection. 3. Check the electrical breaker panel to ensure the circuit breaker has not tripped. If it has been tripped, reset the breaker by switching
to the "On" position.
#2 The Display Appears Functional But There's No Heat On The Cooking Surface
1. Ensure the Power button has been pressed and the screen has switched to the Cooktop Status screen. Ensure there are colored boxes cycling on the display screen.
2. Check the unit is connected to the correct voltage and amperage electrical circuit. (See Appedix 3) 3. Unplug the unit from power or cycle electrical breaker to reset the CPU control program.
#3 The Cooling Fans Continue To Operate After The Unit Is Turned Off
1. This is normal. The fans will continue to operate until the cooking surface temperature is below 125°F (52C).

CLEANING THE COOKING SURFACE

ElevationTM 40E Plancha
APPENDIX 2

It's important to keep your cooking surface clean to prevent food from sticking, to provide better heat conductivity, to prevent unwanted flavors and to provide a better overall appearance of your display cooking unit.
PROCEDURE
1. Start by scraping large particles of debris with the provided scraper. Scrape the debris into the spillover tray located at the lower left of the cooking surface. 2. Place one gray polishing pad between the handle base and one grill screen, so the grill screen makes
direct contact with the cooking surface. 3. Pour a small amount of vegetable oil on the cook surface and lightly scrub the surface in a circular motion.
4. Wipe the surface clean with a paper towel or cotton terry cloth towel. 5. Finish by wiping a small amount of vegetable oil over the entire surface to condition the steel surface and help prevent rusting.
TOOLS NEEDED TO PROPERLY CLEAN THE COOKING SURFACE
Metal Scraper Grill Screen
Grill Polishing Pad Grill Pad Holder Vegetable Oil
Paper Towels or Terry Cloth Towels
TIPS FOR SUCCESS
1. The cooktop is easier to clean when slightly warm. 2. Clean the cooktop after each use.
3. A scraper works very well for removing heavy food particles. 4. Small amount of water can be used to loosen food particles when the cooktop is slightly warmed. Never put water on a hot
cooking surface because super-heated steam may develop and cause severe skin burns.
