GRIDDLE CLEANING
•
Do not mistake brown or black accumulation of grease and smoke for paint . Do not apply a caustic
griddle/oven cleaner to painted surfaces .
•
Plastic parts: Wash with warm soapy water and wipe dry . Do not use Citrisol, abrasive cleaners,
de-greasers or a concentrated oven cleaner on plastic parts . Damage to and failure of parts can result .
•
Painted surfaces: Wash with mild detergent or nonabrasive cleaner and warm soapy water . Wipe
dry with a soft nonabrasive cloth .

Baked-on grease deposits may require the use of an abrasive plastic cleaning pad . Use only in
direction of pad on areas with graphics .
FITTING AND STORAGE
Annual checking and tightening of metal fittings is recommended . Store in a cool dry place . Cover the
burners with aluminum foil in order to prevent insects or other debris from collecting in the burner
holes . If the Griddle is to be stored indoors, the gas bottle must be disconnected and left outside . The
gas bottle should always be stored outside, out of reach of children, and in a dry, well-ventilated area
away from any sources of heat or ignition .
