COOKING
(MODELS TD)
Set the thermostat dial knob to the temperature desired. After a short preheating period, the thermostat
will automatically maintain the selected temperature.
GREASE PAN
A grease pan is located at the front and can be removed for cleaning from the front. This pan should be
checked and emptied on a regular basis.
EXERCISE EXTREME CARE IN HANDLING THE GREASE PAN CONTAINING HOT GREASE.
GRIDDLE CARE (NON-CHROMIUM AREAS)
It takes very little time and effort to keep the griddle attractive and performing at top efficiency. If grease
is permitted to accumulate, it will form a gummy cake and then carbonize into a hard substance which is
extremely difficult to remove. To prevent this condition, the following suggestions for cleanliness should
be followed:
1. After each use, scrape the griddle with a scraper or flexible spatula to remove excess grease and
food. A waste drawer is provided for the scrapings. If there is an accumulation of burned on grease
and food, the griddle should be thoroughly scoured and reseasoned. Use pumice or griddle stone
while the griddle is warm. Do not use steel wool because of the danger of steel slivers getting into
the food.
2. Daily-use a clean cloth and good non-abrasive cleaner to clean the stainless steel body of the griddle.
Wipe the polished front with a soft cloth.
3. At least once a day remove the waste drawer and wash in the same way as an ordinary cooking
utensil. The drawer is removed by pulling forward, up and out.
TEMPERATURE CONTROL
GGT: The temperature controls are combination “ON/OFF” switches and thermostats. Turning the dial
knob automatically maintains the selected heat range. There is one thermostat for every twelve [12] inch
(305 mm) wide section that operate independently.
GGM: To ignite burners, turn burner valve knob to highest temperature position. Each burner is controlled
by an individual high–low, on/off valve. Any temperature in the operable range may be obtained by turning
the burner valve knob to any position between high and low and adjusting for time and application. For
over- night shutdown, turn the valves to the “OFF” position.
COOKING
GGT: Set the thermostat dial knob at the desired temperature. After a short pre-heating period, the
thermostat will automatically maintain the selected temperature.
GGM : Adjust the knob to the desired area in the heat range. Once the desired heat is reached make
adjustments over time to maintain target heat.
IDLING: During idle periods, to save on operating costs, lower the temperature setting of the thermostat
to about 250°F (121°C) on thermostatic models and to a low heat setting on manual models. It is not
necessary to maintain cooking temperature during idle periods, as the griddle can quickly be reheated to
the desired temperature.
SIGNAL LIGHTS: On thermostatic models, each thermostat has its own signal light which indicates when
the unit’s control knob is not in the off position.
