OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
(For
Digital
Bakers)
For standard (non-digital) baker operating instructions, see Mechanical Baker section.
General Operating Instructions
1.
Always use fresh batter and do not allow it to warm up too much.
2.
During operation, frequent cleaning with a soft-bristled brush and re-seasoning the grids as
needed, will ensure a great tasting product.
3.
Leave the grids in the closed position whenever possible (open grids cause excessive
carbon build-up).
4.
DO NOT
apply beeswax, paraffin, or any other waxes to grid surfaces.
Pre-heating the Unit
1.
Flip the Power Switch to the ON position.
The display will read “Lo” until the unit reaches 75°F (24°C), and the Heat Indicator Light will
turn ON and remain on until the unit reaches the set cooking temperature.
Note:
The digital baker has a preset cooking temperature of 385°F (196°C), and cook time of
1 minute (1:00). To change these settings, see Changing Cook Time and Temperature
Set Point section of this manual.
2.
When the Heat Indicator Light goes OFF, the unit has reached the correct temperature and is
ready for use.
Note:
The Heat Indicator Light will continue to cycle OFF/ON during the baking operation.
Grid Seasoning
COATED (Non-Stick) Grids:
After the initial seasoning of a new unit, coated grids do not need to be
seasoned regularly. Depending on usage, or if coated grids have been scoured in the cleaning
process, a very light spray of Seas'n-Kleen may be needed prior to the next use. Follow the steps
below to initially season new grids.
DO NOT
use metallic utensils on coated grids.
