INITIAL START UP
Pre-Power On
Before starting the griddle for the
fi
rst time, clean the griddle body and cooking surface.
Use a mild soap and water solution, then rinse with clear water and dry.
Power On
Set the main power switch, located at the far left of the control panel, to the “ON” (up) position
(there are two “ON” switches on 5 and 6 foot griddles).
Set each cooking section’s power switch, located next to each temperature dial, to the “ON” (up)
position.
Set the temperature dials to 200°F.
Heat the griddle at 200°F (93°C) for 2 hours to evaporate any moisture that may be in the elements.
After 2 hours at 200°F (93°C), turn the temperature up to 350°F (176°C) for ½ hour.
After the griddle reaches 350°F (176°C) for ½ hour, turn the griddle up another 50°F (10°C) for another
½ hour and repeat this until it is at 450°F (232°C) for ½ hour.
The unit may emit a small amount of smoke as the cooking surface passes the 300°F (148°C) point.
Do not be alarmed as the smoke is caused by oils associated with the manufacturing process and will
stop when the griddle reaches 350°F (176°C).
Seasoning Cooking Surface
The cooking surface must be “seasoned” in order to eliminate product sticking during cooking.
To season, heat the griddle to 250°F (121°C).
Once at 250°F (121°C), coat the cooking surface with non-salted vegetable oil.
Allow the griddle to stand at 250°F (121°C) until the cooking surface looks dry then coat it again.
Heat the griddle to 350°F (176°C) and repeat the procedure.
NOTICE: During
the
fi
rst few hours of operation you may notice a small
amount of smoke coming off the griddle, and a faint odor from the
smoke. This is normal for a new griddle and will disappear after the
fi
rst few hours of use.
