TROUBLESHOOTING

If the Hotplate does not function check the

following points before calling for service.

 The power is switched "on", both on the

unit and at any other point that supplies

power to the machine (e.g. an isolating

switch on the wall).

 The mains power is not faulty.

 The temperature has been set correctly and

the thermal cut-out has not tripped. Refer to

the "Thermal Cut-Out" section previous for

more information on this control.

 The thermostat knobs are not loose or

broken, rendering the thermostats

inoperable.

 The circuit breakers located inside the lower

section of the unit are all in the "on"

position". These are located behind a cover

panel.

Typical issues that can be easily identified can

be listed below:

1.1 Symptom – All power shut off

1.2 Check – Is air still flowing through the grease

box guide?

1.3 Probable Cause – (If Yes) – Overtemp has

cut out. Let machine cool for 30 minutes before

switching back on. (If no) – Possible failure of

primary fan or ON/OFF switch

2.1 Symptom – Plate takes too long to

heat/cook

2.2 Check – All circuit breakers are in the "ON'

position

2.3 Probable Cause – If tripped, there could be

possible element failure. Reset circuit breakers

and operate as normal. Call for service if they

trip again.

3.1 Symptom – Grinding noise coming from

inside the unit

3.2 Check – Does it sound like a fan turning but

being noisy?

3.3 Probable Cause – Internal fan bearing may

be failing. Call for servicing before the fan fails,

as such a failure will cause the machine to

overheat and shut down.

THERMAL CUTOUTS

These units are fitted with an internal safety

thermostat designed to cut power if the internal

temperatures reach a point where other

components may be damaged. There are a

number of possible situations that may cause

the safety thermostat to cut out, such as a

thermostat failure or the failure of an internal

fan. You may follow the procedure below as a

first step to rectifying the problem.

1. Switch the Hotplate OFF using the main

On/Off switch and allow it to cool for

approximately 30 minutes.

2. Switch the unit back on – operation can

now continue as normal.

3. Repeat steps 1 and 2.

4. If the unit again trips out it may be the

result of a failure in an internal fan -

phone for service.

If the Hotplate continues to perform without any

further tripping of the thermal cut-out after step

3, then there is a strong possibility that the

thermostat in use at the time is faulty, or that

one of the internal cooling fans is no longer

functioning. This should be attended to by

qualified electrical personnel.

If the machines have tripped the thermal cut-out

two or three times switch the unit off and refrain

from further use until the unit has been repaired.

Continuing to use the machine may cause

premature failure of other components if

repeatedly exposed to over-temperature

situations.
