Using The Electric Griddle - Thermador PRG30 Care And Use Manual

Using the Electric Griddle

Description
(available on some models)
The built-in griddle is made of restaurant-quality aluminum
that has a non-sick coating. This produces a surface with
even heat that is easy to clean.
A maple chopping block, stainless steel cover, and coated-
aluminum grill plate are available as accessories and are
purchased separately. The maple chopping block and
stainless steel cover are sized to fit on top of the surface
when the griddle is not being used. The coated-aluminum
grill plate accessory is designed to replace the griddle
plate. See the instructions that come with the grill plate
accessory for more details.
The maple chopping block and stainless steel cover must
be removed before turning the griddle on.
• The electric griddle element is rated 120 volts AC,
1,600 watts.
CAUTION:
The griddle element is hot after use. Allow
sufficient time for griddle components to cool
before cleaning.
WARNING:
To avoid risk of injury, never operate griddle
without the griddle plate installed. Never use
griddle in a manner that is not prescribed by the
Care and Use Manual.
The griddle plate (or grill plate accessory) must always be
in place when the griddle is turned on.

used without any butter, margarine or oil. However, a very
