MATCH LIGHTING THE MAIN BURNER:

and place the match as shown approximately 1/2” (1 to 2 cm) from the
burner to be lit.
4. Turn the burner control knob to the “HIGH” position. The burner should
light within 5 seconds.
5. If the burner does not light, turn the control knob to “OFF” and wait 5 minutes
for gas to dissipate and repeat lighting procedure.
6. Once lit, light adjacent burners by following steps 3-6.
7. If the burner does not light within the fi rst few attempts of match lighting, there is a problem with the
gas supply. Turn off the gas at the burner and cylinder. DO NOT attempt to operate the griddle until the
problem is found and corrected.

WARNING
OPERATING THE GRIDDLE:
GRIDDLE SEASONING INSTRUCTIONS:
For best results, we recommend seasoning the griddle before cooking on griddle top.
Step 1 Make sure griddle top is wiped clean of debris (refer to Cleaning Your Griddle)
Step 2 Ignite griddle by following the lighting instructions. Turn all knobs to HIGH and wait 10 to 15 minutes
until your griddle top starts to discolor.
Step 3 Pour 3 tablespoons of oil on griddle top. Any cooking oil will work.
Step 4 Use cooking tongs or heat resistant gloves to hold folded paper towels. Spread the cooking oil over
the surface of griddle top evenly by using the folded paper towel. Be sure to cover every part of the
griddle top (i.e. corners, sides, etc.).
Step 5 Once your griddle is covered with a thin layer of cooking oil, allow griddle to heat on HIGH. Smoking
will occur as the oil begins to bond with the griddle top, creating a non-stick surface.
Step 6 When griddle top has stopped smoking and there isn’t a noticeable amount of sheen, repeat steps
3-5 at least three more times.
Note:
After repeating the seasoning steps, your griddle top may not appear to be completely black or even.
To achieve a dark surface, start cooking on your griddle top which will help create a nicely seasoned
griddle top.
Note:
Your Even Embers griddle was pre-treated with vegetable oil as a protective coating. This coating
may leave a discoloration on the griddle, but this will not affect the seasoning process.
