ELECTRIC GRIDDLE

Available on 48" models only.
The electric stainless steel griddle is manufactured from 3/
16 inches stainless steel designed for maximum heat
retention. Use extreme caution when operating the griddle
to avoid burn hazard!

PREPARING THE GRIDDLE

Check the griddle plate adjustment by pouring two
tablespoons of water on the back of the griddle plate.
The water should slowly roll into the grease tray.
To adjust move the griddle plate to the side.
Adjust the two screws under the back of the plate. Start
with one half turn counterclockwise of the screws.
Further adjustment should be made by one-quarter turn
until water slowly flows into the grease tray.

SEASONING THE GRIDDLE

The stainless steel griddle must be seasoned before using
it for the first time. We also recommend re-seasoning after
a long time of non use.
Clean the griddle thoroughly with hot water and soap
solution to remove any protective coating.
Rinse with a mixture ¼ gal of water and 1 cup white
vinegar and dry thoroughly.
Pour 1 tsp vegetable oil into the centre of the griddle.
Rub the oil over the entire surface of the griddle using a
heavy cloth.
Turn the control knob to a maximum setting.
Turn the heat off when the oil begins to smoke. Allow the
griddle to cool.
Repeat step 3 covering the entire surface with the oil.
Turn off the heat and allow the griddle to cool.
Wipe the entire surface of the griddle using a heavy cloth.
Apply a very thin layer of vegetable oil. The griddle is
now ready for use, too much oil can damage the griddle.

USING THE ELECTRIC GRIDDLE

Press and turn the knob (Fig. 37 ) anti-clockwise to the
selected position. The activation of the griddle is shown by
the indicator light which is also found on the front panel of
the appliance.
Pre-heat at the maximum temperature for 15 minutes, then
place the food on the griddle and cook at the desired
temperature.
You can cook on the electric griddle without butter,
margarine or oil. However, a very small amount may be
used to flavor foods.
DO NOT use metal utensils on the griddle surface. Care
