Power Hood is available only as
an Echelon E1060 factory shipped option. Read the
following before using the grill.
Important: Grill must be connected to electrical
power to open and close lid by motor.
OPENING AND CLOSING THE LID BY REMOTE
OR CONTROL PANEL ROCKER SWITCH
Note: See below for manual operation procedure.
While set up for motorized opening and closing,
the lid may be controlled either by the black rocker
switch on the right side of the control panel or by the
remote control included with units confi gured with the
motorized lid option.
The rocker switch will lock in any one of three positions:
up–commanding the lid to open, down –commanding
the lid to close, and center–allowing the lid to hold its
current position and respond to remote control.
For safety reasons, the rocker switch on the control
panel will always override the remote control.
To enable remote control of the lid, set the rocker
switch to center.
To open the lid, press and hold the open button on
the remote until the lid reaches the desired location.
Then release the remote buttons, and the lid will stay
in place.
To close the lid, press and hold the close button on
the remote until the lid reaches the desired location.
Then release the remote buttons, and the lid will stay
in place.
If the rocker switch is left in the down position, remote
up commands will affect the lid only as long as the
remote button is held. When released, the motor will
move the lid back to the closed state. With the rocker
switch in the up position, the remote has no effect.
CONFIGURING THE LID FOR MANUAL OPENING
AND CLOSING
WARNING
If the grill has been on recently, all Power Hood
components are potentially hot. Wait for grill to
cool before beginning this procedure or wear
heat-resistant gloves.
CAUTION: Do not push or pull on the lid or
its handle while it is configured for
automatic operation. This could result
in damage to the grill.
To confi gure the lid for manual opening and closing,
simply remove the locking bolt using the following
procedure. This procedure requires the use of the
Allen wrench supplied with this option.
1. Open the lid completely, then set the rocker switch
to the center position and disconnect electrical
power to the unit.
2. Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the stainless-
steel motor assembly housing screw. Pull the top
of the housing fi rst up and then outward away
from the lid until the top of the shroud clears the
lip of the motor mount beneath, then remove the
housing completely and set it aside (Fig. 17-3).
3. Use the Allen wrench to loosen and remove the
lid motor assembly locking bolt and washer (see
next page).
Important: Keep this bolt and washer for later use
in converting the unit back to automatic
lid operation.
4. Replace the motor assembly housing and
refasten.
