Your electrician sizes the circuit; there is no plug listed on the sheet.
Can it go next to a wall or on a wood counter?
Royal's spec sheet says to install it only in noncombustible surroundings, so plan a non-combustible counter or stand and wall.
How hot does it get?
Each 12" zone has its own thermostat adjustable from 200°F to 500°F.
What options are available?
Royal lists these options: grooved griddle, chrome griddle plate, stainless steel equipment stand, 5" swivel casters for stand. Call us to add one.
What does the warranty cover?
Royal's limited warranty is 2 years on parts and 1 year on labor from installation (up to 30 months from manufacture), with labor done by an authorized Royal service agency.
How do I clean the griddle plate?
Daily, scrub the warm plate with warm water and a fine-grit griddle brick, and empty and clean the grease can. Wipe stainless steel with hot soapy water; don't use steel wool or abrasive powders.
