• How do I light the pilot on my Sierra gas griddle?

  To light the pilot, turn the main gas valve on and wait 5 minutes to clear accumulated gas. Depress the safety valve button while lighting the pilot with an external ignition source. Hold the button for approximately 45 seconds after the pilot is lit before releasing. Always follow the specific instructions in your owner's manual.

• How often should I clean my Sierra commercial broiler?

  Top grates should be cleaned daily with warm water, mild cleaner, and a wire brush. Debris around the burner area should also be brushed off daily. Periodic heavy cleaning involves removing open burners to check for clogged ports and cleaning with warm water.

• Can Sierra ranges be converted to propane?

  Yes, many Sierra commercial appliances come with natural gas installed but include a propane conversion kit. Conversion involves changing burner and pilot orifices and adjusting the regulator. This procedure must be performed by a qualified service technician.

• What are the clearance requirements for Sierra cooking equipment?

  For most Sierra commercial gas appliances, installation is required on non-combustible surfaces/locations. Typical combustible clearance requirements are 12 inches for the sides, 8 inches for the rear, and 6 inches for the floor, though specific models like the SR series may specify zero clearance for non-combustible construction.
