Griddle

To Use

1. Before using the new griddle, wash in hot, soapy water; rinse and dry.

2. PI,ace two clean grill-rocks (with handles parallel to cooktop front) into clean grill

basin. Insert grill element. Do not use surface grill grates.

3. Place griddle over grill element so that the drain holes are in front. This will permit

excess grease to be collected in the grease container.

4. Preheat the griddle as noted below. Settings above 10 during griddle operation are

unnecessary, can ruin the finish or cause seasonings or food to adhere to the

griddle.

5. After griddle is preheated, season griddle with butter or oil. DO NOT PREHEAT A

SEASONED GRIDDLE. Normally, the griddle needs to be seasoned for all but high

fat foods. If the griddle is seasoned during preheat, oil changes its chemical compo-

sition and forms a varnish-like finish on the griddle which is difficult to remove.

6. To maintain the finish, use nonmetallic spatulas or utensils while cooking.

Cleaning

1. THE GRIDDLE MUST BE CLEANED AFTER EACH USE IN ORDER TO PROPERLY

MAINTAIN THE FINt'SH. Any seasoning or food residue left on the griddle will

adhere to it during the next preheat. The residue will create a varnish-like or tacky

surface that will build up over a period of time. This built-up residue will tend to flake

off which creates a rough texture on the griddle surface, interfering with perfor-

mance and appearance of the griddle.

2. Once the griddle has cooled (DO NOT immerse a hot griddle in cold water), wash

with soap or detergent in hot water in the sink. Be sure to remove all food residue

before cooking on the griddle again. Any difficult to remove, cooked on residue can

be removed with a plastic scrubber.

3. In the event the griddle has not been cleaned sufficiently and has a light, tacky film of

oil or cooked on residue, remove with plastic scrubber and Bar Keepers Friend, Ajax,

or other nonabrasive cleansers.

4. DO NOT wash in dishwasher as strong detergents remove some of the natural

seasoning of the non-stick finish.
