FIRST USE – SEASONING THE GRIDDLE
EN
1 Clean the griddle thoroughly with hot, soapy water to remove any protective coating.
2 Rinse with a mixture of 1 cup water and ¼ cup white vinegar, then dry thoroughly.
3 Pour 1 tsp vegetable (but not corn) oil into the center of the griddle, then rub it over
its entire surface, using a soft, heavy cloth.
4 Turn the griddle knob counterclockwise to 350°F.
5 When the oil begins to smoke, turn the knob clockwise back to OFF and allow the
griddle to cool.
6 Repeat steps 3 to 5.
7 Wipe the entire surface of the griddle using a soft, heavy cloth.
8 Apply a very thin layer of vegetable (but not corn) oil.
9 Check the grease drip-pan and clean if necessary. Discard any liquid or soiling that
may have collected in the grease drip-pan during the conditioning.

For best results, re-season the griddle after long periods of non-use.

Note: the griddle will darken with use. This is normal.
