For contact information or if you require service, assistance or replacement parts, see the end of this document or your ‘Service &
warranty’ booklet.
Note:
When cooking foods with a high fat content, position the griddle’s lower rear hooks onto the upper grate support rod. This increases
the angle of the griddle and will help to drain the grease away.
Season the griddle
Before using the griddle we recommend that you season it.
1 Clean the griddle thoroughly with hot soapy water to remove any protective coating.
2 Rinse with a mixture of 4 cups of water and ¼ cup of white vinegar. Dry thoroughly.
3 Pour 1 teaspoon of vegetable oil onto the center of the griddle (do not use corn oil as it gets sticky). Rub the oil over the entire
surface of the griddle using a heavy cloth.
4 Place the griddle on the grill rack. Light the burner and turn the control knob to a medium setting. Turn the heat off when the oil
begins to smoke. Allow griddle to cool.
5 Repeat step three (be sure to cover the entire surface with oil) and step four.
6 Once the griddle has cooled again, apply a thin layer of vegetable oil. The griddle is now ready to use.
If the griddle will not be used for a period of time, reseason it to avoid rusting.
To cook using the Griddle
1 Light the burner:
Push in and turn the selected burner knob to “SEAR”. Release the knob when the burner lights. If the burner does not light in 4 to 5
seconds, turn the knob to “OFF” and wait 5 minutes before trying again so any accumulated gas may dissipate.
2 Leave the knob on “SEAR” lower the lid for 5-10 minutes to allow the Griddle to pre-heat.
3 Place the food on the griddle. Adjust the dial between SEAR and LOW to cook the food to the desired doneness.
4 When you have cooked the food turn the dial to “OFF”.
5 Allow the grill to cool, and clean the griddle and grease tray after every use.
Griddle
Turn the burner to “SEAR” for 15-20 minutes to burn any remaining food particles. After turning the grill “OFF”, use a bristle barbeque
brush to remove any remaining food particles or ash.
Alternatively you may clean by taking about 1 foot of aluminum foil, crumpled up in a ball and rub it over cooled griddle to release
food particles.
Drip Pan and Grease tray
See your User guide for details on how to clean these parts.
The griddle may be installed over any of the burners on the grill.
To Fit
1 Ensure all the burner knobs are in the “OFF” position, and that
the grates are cold.
2 Select the burner you wish to use. Remove two adjacent grates
from above the burner.
3 Lower the griddle into position, fitting either of the plate rear
hooks over the upper grate support rod. Use the upper hooks
for a flatter griddle or the lower hooks to increase the angle
of the griddle. Note: When using the flat position, ensure
that the lower rear hook is also clipped onto the lower grate
support rod.
4 Lower the front of griddle onto the edge of the grease
channel.
To remove griddle

Only remove the griddle when it has completely cooled.
1
Lift front edge of griddle and lift the rear hooks clear of the
grate support rod.

chemical that produces the spraying action could, in the presence of heat, ignite or cause metal parts to corrode.
