The lightning fl ash with arrowhead symbol within an
equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the
presence of uninsulated, dangerous voltage within
the product’s enclosure that may be of suffi cient
magnitude to constitute a risk of fi re or electric shock
to persons.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is
intended to alert the user to the presence of important
operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in
the literature accompanying the appliance.
SPECIAL CORD SET INSTRUCTIONS
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting
from becoming entangled in or tripping over a long cord.
An extension cord may be used with this product provided that care
is exercised in its use. If a long extension cord is used, the marked
electrical rating of the extension cord must be at least as great as
the electrical rating on the appliance, and the longer cord should
be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop
where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over.
EVERY GRIDDLE NEEDS TO BE SEASONED
BEFORE FIRST USE
The seasoning process will last about 1 to 1½ hours.
Seasoning is an important step to prepare the surface for a natural
nonstick fi nish.
1. Pre-clean surface with steel wool and detergent.
2. Plug unit into outlet in a well-ventilated area.
3. Switch on the appliance and set to HIGH. Allow to heat until
green READY light is lit.
4. Pour about a tablespoon of corn or peanut oil suitable for frying
in the center of the cooking surface. Using a cotton cloth or
paper towel (synthetic materials will adhere to the surface),
spread the oil evenly and let heat for 5 to 10 minutes, until the
surface loses its initial sheen and appears dry.
5. Repeat step 4 eight times, burnishing the surface with the towel
and decreasing the amount of oil used each time until a smooth,
non-tacky surface has developed.
