NOTE: Because of the superior heating characteristics
and heat retention properties found in the Teppanyaki
Griddle, operating temperatures should be set 10°F to
25°F (6°C to 14°C) below conventional griddles.
2. Set the thermostat to the desired temperature and
wait ten minutes for preheating.
3. See figure 3-1 for proper food placement. The
thermostat sensing bulbs are located below the
plate.
4. Load the product to the left and right of each
sensing bulb, then fill the area above the
thermostat sensing bulb. See figure 3-1.
Figure 3-1
Sample configuration of proper food placement
If you cook over the sensing bulb only, you are drawing
heat from that section, activating the thermostat to call
for more heat even though the area around it is still at
the temperature setting. This will result in higher
surface temperatures which will affect your cooking
and product appearance.

4. After each load, scrape the griddle surface
completely clean using the 4" (102mm) wide
replaceable blade scraper.
DO NOT HACK, CHOP, HIT OR CUT ON THE
TEPPANYAKI SURFACE. You will dent the steel plate
under the trivalent chrome. It is even possible to hack two
nicks close together and actually tear the Teppanyaki
surface as the chromium will not stretch. Below is a sketch
showing the side view of a griddle plate and how the
surface can be damaged.

Surface Damage
Never use griddle scraper on the polished steel
Teppanyaki Griddle. This will damage the surface.
Damage done to the Teppanyaki surface is irreparable.
