Do not apply a corrosive oven cleaner to painted surfaces.
GENERAL CLEANING

13
CSA - ENGLISH
• Stainless Steel Cleaning Tips:
Step 1: Dip a soft cloth in warm water mixed with a mild dish detergent.
Wipe the surface, rinse the cloth and wipe again, then dry with a towel
to prevent water spots.
Step 2: If you still see ngerprints, spray a glass cleaner onto a soft
cloth and wipe ngerprints away.
Step 3:To remove baked-on food and grease, make a paste of baking
soda and warm water. Gently rub onto the surface using a soft cloth or
sponge. Wipe with a clean wet cloth and towel dry. For scratches and
stains, use a stainless-steel cleaner and apply it to the area, following
directions. Rinse with a clean damp cloth, then dry.
Food storage safety tips:
• Understand what “high-risk” foods are.
• Always keep high-risk food at the proper temperature.
• Store raw foods, such as raw meat, seafood, and vegetables below cooked
foods in the refrigerator or freezer.
• Store food in properly covered containers made of glass or plastic.
• Avoid refreezing already thawed foods.
WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT
FOOD SAFETY
1. WASH YOUR HANDS-Wash your hands with hot water and soap for at
least 15-20 seconds before and after handling food.
2. SEPARATE RAW AND READY TO EAT/COOKED FOODS
• Ensure that raw food is always kept refrigerated and away from ready
to eat/cooked foods. Food that is marinating should also be kept
covered in the fridge.
• Ready to eat foods (such as salads, vegetables, sauces) and cooked
foods, should never come into contact with raw food as this causes
harmful bacteria to contaminate the cooked food.
• Always ensure that you use separate chopping boards/utensils for raw
and cooked foods, and always wash your hands after handling raw food.
3. COOK FOOD THOROUGHLY
• Food poisoning is caused by harmful bacteria, such as E-Coli and
Salmonella, which are killed by cooking. In order to ensure food
safety, it is essential to cook food thoroughly.
GRIDDLE FOOD AND SAFETY
• Slice into the thickest part of the meat with a fork and a sharp
knife to check whether it's cooked. If the color of the meat in the
center is still pink, it needs to cook longer.
• Burgers should always be cooked thoroughly and never be served
pink.
• Food thermometers are available in most supermarkets, and they
can easily tell whether meat is cooked by probing it for 165 degrees
Fahrenheit or 74 degrees Celsius. They are a handy tool to have in
your kitchen.
4. SERVE FOOD IMMEDIATELY AFTER COOKING - Letting cooked
food sit at room temperature allows for harmful bacteria to grow.
Once food is cooked, serve immediately; otherwise, you should cool
cooked food quickly, refrigerate, and consume within 2 days.
5. ALWAYS KEEP FOOD COVERED - Always keep food covered to ensure
that ies are not contaminating your food.
• Use a meat thermometer to ensure food has reached a safe internal
temperature.
• Whole poultry should reach 165° F/ 73.8 °C for dark meat, 160°F/ 71°C for
white meat.
• Hamburgers made of any ground meat or poultry should reach
160°F/71°C and be brown in the center with no pink juices. Beef, veal and
lamb steaks, roasts and chops can be cooked to 145°F/63°C. All cuts of
pork should reach 160°F/71°C.
NEVER partially grill meat or poultry and nish cooking later. Cook food
completely to destroy harmful bacteria.

ADDED FEATURE
Your griddle is equipped with an adjustable low-pressure regulator. The normal
operating pressure is 11" water column and the lower operating pressure available
is 9.5" water column. When operating your griddle under normal circumstances,
you will want to have the regulator set at the 11" water column pressure. If you
want to cook with slightly lower temperatures, then set the regulator to the 9.5"
water column setting. Depending on what temperature setting you have the
control knob set at will determine how much lower your temperature will be
when using the lower pressure setting. Please see the instructions on how to
change from the 11" water column setting and back again.
