GRIDDLE ACCESSORY
You must have the grill module to use the
griddle accessory.
Your non-stick coated griddle provides an extra-large
cooking surface for meats, pancakes, or other food
usually prepared in a frying pan or electric skillet.
WARNING: Do not use griddle modules JXDD43 or
JXDD46 with these cooktops.

How to Insert the Griddle Accessory and the Grill Module
1. Make sure the grease
collector jar is in place
beneath the cooktop.
2. Fit the reflector pan
in the cooktop. The
slots in the pan permit
grease to drain into
the jar. Keep the slots
open at all times.
3. Make sure all controls
are turned to OFF. Hold
the heating element with
the plug facing the side
of the cooktop and level
with the surface. Insert
the plug into the cooktop
outlet as far as it will go.
(Do not force.) The
heating element support
should rest on the ledge
of the reflector pan.
4. Place the griddle plate
on the reflector pan over
the heating element. The
plate should be seated
properly on the reflector
pan with the griddle’s
drain holes at the front.
Removing the Griddle Module
When removing the parts of the grill module to clean, be sure all switches
are in the OFF position and the module is cool. Remove the griddle plate
and then slide the heating element toward the center of the cooktop until it
is unplugged. Remove the reflector pan. Empty grease collector jar when
cool. Be sure to replace the jar.
Using the Griddle
The non-stick griddle must be preconditioned before
using it for the first time. To precondition, first wash
the griddle in soap and water and dry. Then use a paper
towel to apply a small amount of cooking oil to the
griddle. Remove excess oil with a clean paper towel.
Preheat the griddle as recommended in the Griddle
Cooking Guide. After preheating for the recommended
amount of time, apply a small amount of oil or butter.
Do not overheat the griddle. Leaving the griddle at HI
for more than 5 minutes without food can damage the
non-stick coating.
Because the heating element under the griddle is divided,
you can vary the temperature of the front and rear sections.
