The electric stainless steel griddle is manufactu-

red 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 pla-

te. Start with one half turn counterclockwise of

the screws. Further adjustment should be made

by one-quarter turn until water slowly ﬂ ows into

the grease tray.

SEASONING THE GRIDDLE

The stainless steel griddle must be seasoned be-

fore using it for the ﬁ rst 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

Pre-heat at the maximum temperature for 15 mi-

nutes, then place the food on the griddle and cook

margarine or oil. However, a very small amount

ce. Care should be taken that the surface is not

scratched or gouged with utensils.

DO NOT use knives for cutting directly on the grid-

dle plate.
