GRIDDLE OPERATION
The built-in griddle is made of polished steel to provide a smooth cooking surface. A griddle drip pan is included.
Always pre-heat the griddle on the low setting, at least ten minutes before cooking. The griddle burner is equipped with a hot surface
igniter and gas safety valve system.
TO START COOKING:
Push knob in and turn the knob clockwise to the MAX position. Preheat griddle for two to three minutes and turn knob to a
medium or low cook setting.
The blue indicator light comes on and stays on until the desired setting is reached and then turns off and on with the heating
cycle.
For best results, add a small amount of butter, oil, or a cooking spray to the griddle surface. Fatty meats like bacon and sausage
do not need extra fat.
SEASON THE GRIDDLE:
1. The griddle has a factory applied coating that must be washed off prior to use. (See Cleaning the Griddle)
2. Pour 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil (not corn or olive oil) and rub on the entire surface of the griddle using a rough towel.
3. Push the griddle control knob in and turn to a medium setting (350°F).
4. Heat until griddle begins to smoke. Turn off griddle and allow it to cool.
5. Returning to step 2, repeat the process.
When you are done "griddling" and while the griddle surface is still warm, remove any left-on food particles. Allow the griddle to cool
and scrape off any excess grease from the surface with a flexible nylon spatula. Pull the spatula forward toward the front and push any
material into the front grease receiver.
To clean the griddle, moisten a soft scrub cloth, adding a drop of mild degreaser dish soap to create a soapy lather - and wipe the
griddle from left to right. Clean in rows from the top to the bottom, taking time to wash the entire griddle surface, including the
sides. When you are done, rinse away all the soap from the cloth and wipe any suds from the griddle surface. Remove all remaining
moisture from the griddle with the second, clean soft cloth. Wipe the area in rows again as well as the sides and front. You may have
to repeat action to ensure the griddle plate is dry and sparkling.
CLEANING THE GRIDDLE:
The griddle is not to be removed for cleaning.
Using a flat plastic spatula gently remove burned on food.
Clean the griddle thoroughly with hot soapy water and a rough towel.
The griddle drip pan and trough should be cleaned after each use with hot soapy water and a sponge.
It is normal for the griddle to darken with age and use, similiar to commercial cooking equipment.
