WIND | COMBUSTION AIR | HEAT
Your XO griddle is a high performance cooking machine. As such it requires plenty of air to
support combustion at the burners.
Air flow is designed to enter at the front around the control panel and super-heated air is
exhausted through the long horizontal vent at the back of the griddle.
Because the burners are covered by the griddle plate the design of the appliance makes it
less susceptable to wind patterns than a grill, however care should be taken to avoid conflicts
with strong prevailing wind patterns.
In the case where strong prevailing winds might interfere with the safe and comfortable
operation of the griddle, a wind break is strongly advised. Failure to do so may result in an
excessive build up of heat internally which could cause heating of the control knobs, damage
to the LED power lead, igniter wires or discoloration of the control panel.
It is important to remember that your griddle can generate much more heat than an indoor
kitchen range.
