implements that might scratch the surface. Scratches
make the surface hard to clean and provide places for
bacteria to grow. DO NOT use steel wool which may
leave particles imbedded in the surface, causing corro-
sion and pitting.
7. Rinse the griddle thoroughly with clean water.
8. When the equipment needs to be sanitized, use a sanitiz-
ing solution. Contact our factory to ask which sanitizing
solution is best. Follow the instructions on the sanita-
tion solution bottle and apply to the unit after it has been
cleaned and drained. Rinse off the sanitizing solution
thoroughly with clean water.

to dry thoroughly. Once dry, coat the griddle surface
with a thin layer of liquid shortening.
