Never place any items on the griddle when it is not in use. Heat from surrounding burners can heat the
griddle and may result in fire.

The ribbed side of the reversible griddle (on some models) can be used for food normally grilled.

Before first use, rinse with hot water and dry thoroughly. Prepare the surface with cooking spray or vegetable oil.
