Initial Setup Procedure

Your cooking pan is similar to a quality cast iron skillet in that it must be sea-
soned before use. Seasoning will prevent rust, keep food from burning or stick-
ing to the surface, and will also enhance the flavor of your food.
Step 1: Wash your cooking pan with soap and water. (This will be the only time
you will use soap in your cooking pan) Rinse and dry.
Step 2: Install 16.4 ounce LP gas cylinder, or install 20lb LPG hose adapter for
20lb tank. (see page 11 for installation)
Step 3: To light (be sure to keep face and hands away from burner at all times),
push knob down, turn the gas regulator to the low position. Light with
a long grill lighter, placing the flame directly over the burner.
Step 4: Turn knob to high position for 8 minutes.
Step 5: Add 2 tablespoons of lard or canola oil into cooking pan. Use a paper
towel grasped by a pair of long handled tongs. Spread the lard/oil
around the entire interior surface of cooking pan.
DO NOT USE YOUR HANDS
Step 6: With your tongs and clean paper towels, wipe any residual oil from the
cooking pan. Tip: Sprinkle with sea salt to reduce smoke.
Step 7: For better seasoning, repeat steps 3 through 6, three times.
Step 8: To turn off, turn gas regulator to the off position. The knob will pop up
when securely in off position. Make sure regulator is in off position at
all times when finished cooking or when the appliance is not in use.
Step 9: Allow pan to cool for 30 minutes. Once appliance is completely cool,
wipe dry. You are now ready to cook.
Any time when re-lighting appliance, refer to step 3
