How to Use Your Griddle (on some models)
For complete griddle information, see the full owner's manual at www.GEAppliances.com.
WARNING
Fire Hazard
■
Use care when cooking greasy foods. Spilled grease
can result in fire.
■ Never place any items on the griddle when it is not
in use. Heat from surrounding burners can heat the
griddle and can result in fire.
■ Place and remove the griddle only when all grates
and griddle are cool and all surface burners are
turned OFF.
Before first use, rinse with hot water and dry thoroughly.
Prepare surface with vegetable oil or cooking spray. The
griddle can only be used over the center oval burner.
Remove the center grate (if present) and replace with griddle.
Do not overheat the griddle.
Leaving the griddle burner
on at HI for an extended amount of time without food can
damage the nonstick coating.
Avoid using metal utensils with sharp points or rough sharp
edges which might damage the griddle surface.
For complete information about cleaning the cooktop, see the full owner’s manual at www.GEAppliances.com.
Remove surface burners for cleaning as shown below.
Wash burner caps and burner heads in hot soapy water and
rinse with clean water. The ports in the burner heads must
be kept clean at all times for an even, unhampered flame.
Clogged or dirty burner ports will not allow burner to operate
properly. Before putting burners back on the range, shake
out any excess water and allow them to dry thoroughly.
CAUTION
Do not operate the cooktop without all
burner parts and grates in place.
Any spill on or around an electrode must be carefully
cleaned. Take care to not hit an electrode with anything
hard or it could be damaged.
The electrode of the spark igniter is exposed when the
burner head is removed. When one burner is turned to
LITE, all the burners spark. Do not attempt to disassemble
or clean around any burner while another burner is on.
Damage to the product may occur.
Removal of Surface Burners for Cleaning
Turn all controls OFF. Allow cooktop to cool before
removing grates and burner parts. When removing the
burner caps and heads, remember their size and location.
Replace them in the same location after cleaning.
How to Select Flame Size
Watch the flame, not the knob, as you adjust heat. When
rapid heating is desired, the flame size on a burner should
match the size of the cookware you are using. Flames
larger than the bottom of the cookware
will not heat faster and may be
hazardous.
These flames are too
large for the pot
