to [``yes], the controller will detect temperatures and preheat to operating tempera-
ture (above set point minus the ready band).

the menu is completed or canceled , the indicator light above the Start/Stop key will
light up (flashing or steady).

If the griddle is not at operating temperature, it will preheat. Meanwhile:
The word [Pre-`] [`Heat] will appear on the display for a few moments.
The menu key indicator light will flash slowly.
The temperature of Channel 1 will be displayed until the operating temperature for
both channels is reached.
The heat output indicator light (G, just below the display) will light up whenever
the controller is calling for heat.

If the griddle is at operating temperature, the display goes directly to [Ready]
without indicating preheat or temperature.
