OPERATION
GETTING READY TO USE
1. Make sure the temperature control probe is in the
OFF position.
2. Plug the temperature control probe securely into
Griddle’s control probe socket.
3. Plug cord into any standard 120 V AC wall outlet.
IMPORTANT: ALWAYS PLUG CORD INTO GRIDDLE
FIRST, THEN INTO WALL OUTLET.
4. Preheat Griddle for approximately 10 minutes
before cooking. To preheat, turn the temperature
control to desired temperature. The indicator light
on the temperature control probe will illuminate
as soon as the dial is rotated. The light will go out
once the selected temperature has been reached.
5. Add food and cook according to the recipe.
Adjust temperature control dial from LOW to HI as
needed.
NOTE: During cooking, the light will go on and off
indicating that the Griddle is maintaining proper
temperature.
CAUTION: The surfaces of the Griddle are
hot during use.
CAUTION: AVOID LOW SMOKE POINT OILS OR
SPRAY OILS. THEY CAN CAUSE A BUILD-UP ON
THE CERAMIC NONSTICK COOKING PLATES AND
CAN DAMAGE THE NONSTICK COATING.
6. When cooking bacon or foods containing large
quantities of grease, it may be necessary to check
the drip tray to ensure it doesn’t overflow. Remove
drip tray; empty contents and wash if needed. See
the Time/Temperature Chart for basic suggested
cooking information.
7. When cooking has been completed, turn the
temperature control to the OFF position. The
indicator light on the temperature control probe
will turn off.
8. Unplug cord from wall outlet. Let the Griddle cool
completely.

in this Instruction Manual.
TIPS & HINTS
•
To avoid scratching the nonstick surface of the
Griddle, do not stack objects on the grill or griddle
cooking plates.
•
Use medium to low heat for best cooking results.
Very high temperatures can cause discoloration
and shorten the life span of any nonstick surface.
If higher temperatures are necessary, preheat on
medium heat for a few minutes.
•
For best results and to preserve the nonstick
coating longer, use nylon, plastic, wooden or
rubber utensils.
•
Never cut food on the Griddle.
•
Remove stubborn stains with a melamine
sponge and mild dish washing liquid; DO NOT
USE STEEL WOOL or any other abrasive cleaner,
as it will damage the nonstick surface of the
cooking plates.
