The electric stainless steel griddle is manufactu-
red from 3/16 inches stainless steel designedfor
maximum heat retention. Use extrem 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.
• Move the griddle plate to the side (Figure 23).
• 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 not 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.
USING THE ELECTRIC GRIDDLE
Press and turn the knob (Fig.16) 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 mi-
nutes, 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 fl avor foods.
DO NOT use metal utensils on the griddle surfa-
ce. Care should be taken that the surface is not
scratched or gouged with utensils.
DO NOT use knoives for cutting directly on the
griddle plate.
