HOW TO USE YOUR FOLDING GRIDDLE
BEFORE FIRST USE
This appliance is designed for indoor use only. It is a stand-alone griddle. Do not
use charcoal, lighter fluids, or gases with this appliance.
1. Carefully unpack the GRIDDLE and remove all packaging materials.
2. REMOVE GREASE TRAY BEFORE UNFOLDING. Unfold the Griddle until
unit locks into open position and insert the Grease Tray.
3. Remove the COOKING PLATES by
pushing down on the COOKING PLATE
LATCHES. (See Figure 1.)
4. Wash the COOKING PLATES and
GREASE TRAY with hot, soapy water.
Dry thoroughly.
CAUTION:
Do not
immerse the GRIDDLE in water or other
liquids.
5. Replace the COOKING PLATES. Align
special notch area in COOKING PLATES
with unit. Hold plates up at a slight angle
and slide plates into hinge areas and
push down to lock plates. (See Figure 2.)
NOTE:
Make sure to push down on the
COOKING PLATE until it has firmly locked
into place under the COOKING PLATE
LATCH.
6. Repeat this process for the right-hand
side COOKING PLATE.
7. Condition the non-stick COOKING PLATES with vegetable oil, wiping off any
excess with a paper towel.
1. Place the GRIDDLE on a flat, level surface, such as a countertop or table.
2. Replace GREASE TRAY into guides at the back of the Griddle.
3. Make sure the TEMPERATURE CONTROL KNOBS are in the “OFF” position.
4. Plug GRIDDLE into a 120 volt 60Hz AC outlet.
5. Preheat the GRIDDLE by aligning the TEMPERATURE CONTROL KNOB indicator
with the appropriate temperature setting for approximately 15 minutes prior to
use. The INDICATOR LIGHTS will illuminate, indicating that the GRIDDLE is being
preheated. When the INDICATOR LIGHTS go out, the GRIDDLE surface is
preheated to the desired temperature and is ready for use. During cooking,
the INDICATOR LIGHTS will go on and off indicating that the surface
temperature is being maintained.
6. The Fold ‘n Store™ griddle is equipped with dual, independent controls
allowing you to cook 2 different kinds of foods at one time. Or it has the
ability to warm food on one side and cook food on the other side.
7. Use only wood, nylon, or heat-proof plastic utensils. Metal utensils will
scratch the non-stick COOKING PLATES of the GRIDDLE.
NOTE:
Never cut
food with a knife on the GRIDDLE.
8. When cooking is complete, turn the TEMPERATURE CONTROL KNOBS to
the “OFF” position and unplug the POWER CORD from the outlet.
9. Allow GRIDDLE to cool before removing COOKING PLATES and cleaning.
NOTE:
When cooking consecutive batches of bacon or other high fatty foods, it
may be necessary to empty the GREASE TRAY to avoid grease from overflowing.
CAUTION:
Some countertops are more sensitive to heat, use care not to place
the griddle on surfaces where heat may cause damage.
