Use and Care Manual

Large stock pots should be staggered when used on the rangetop (see below).

Do not cook on aluminum foil or thin, disposable aluminum pans. These can melt.

Never let a pot boil dry. If left too long, the pan could melt, or damage the appliance.

Use only high-quality pans with metal handles. Some plastic handles could melt from the intense

heat of the burners.

USING THE GRIDDLE

(SOME MODELS)

GRIDDLE CONTROL KNOB

The griddle provides a temperature range of 120°F - MAX (approx. 500°F) [49 - 260°C]. Push and

turn RIGHT (clockwise) to select the desired temperature for the food you are cooking. A constant

orange glow will be seen at the rear vents of the griddle. This is normal.

To avoid injury DO NOT operate the griddle without the griddle plate and grease tray in place.

Always remove the cover before use.

CAUTION

The griddle is very hot after use. Allow sufficient time to cool down before cleaning.

DO NOT use metal utensils (pots, pans, etc.) on the griddle plate surface. Be careful not to gouge or

cause deep scratches in the griddle plate surface. DO NOT cut directly on the griddle plate.

FIRST TIME OPERATION

Before using your griddle for the first time, the griddle plate and the grease tray should be cleaned

with warm, soapy water and thoroughly rinsed and dried. When you first heat the plate, a little

smoke and some odor may be present as any remaining manufacturing oils are burned off. The

stainless-steel plate will discolor, from a straw color to a very dark brown or black, depending on

what foods you cook on the surface.
