_Safety Precautions
For specific safety precautions, please refer to gas cooktop use and care manual (Part
No. 204563).
_Installing the Griddle
1. Before installing grill and griddle components, be certain control knobs are in the
OFF position.
2. Position the grill burner with mixer tube openings towards the orifices. Slide the
burner towards theorifices until igniter is in between front and rear grill sections.
Lower into place until side openings are resting on the burner support pins.
3. Place the griddle over the grill burner so that the drain groove is at the front of the
cooktop.

Using the Griddle
1. Before using the new griddle, wash in hot, soapy water; rinse and dry.
2. Insert grill burner.Do not use surface grill grates.
3. Place griddle over grill burner so that the drain groove is in front. This will permit
excess grease to be collected in the drain jar.
4. Preheat the griddle as noted below.
5. After griddle is preheated, season griddlewith butter or oil DO NOT PREHEAT A
SEASONED GRIDDLE. Normally, the griddle needs to be seasoned for all but high
fat foods. If the griddle is seasoned during preheat, oil changes its chemical
composition and forms a varnish-like finish on the griddle which is difficult to
remove.
6. To maintain the finish, use nonmetallic spatulas or utensils while cooking.

Cleaning
1. THE GRIDDLE MUST BE CLEANED AFTER EACH USE IN ORDER TO
PROPERLY MAINTAIN THEFINISH. Any seasoning or food residue left on the
griddle will adhere to it during the next preheat. The residue will create a varnish-
like or tacky surface that will build up over a period of time. This built-up residue
will tend to flake off which creates a rough texture on the griddle surface,
interfering with performance and appearance of the griddle.
2. Once the griddle has cooled (DO NOT immerse a hot griddle in cold water), wash
with soap or detergent in hot water in the sink. Be sure to remove all food residue
before cooking on the griddle again. Any difficult to remove, cooked on residue
canbe removed with a plastic scrubber.
3. In the event the griddle has not been cleaned sufficiently and has a light, tacky film
of oil or cooked on residue, remove with plastic scrubber and Bar Keepers Friend,
Ajax, or other nonabrasive cleansers.
4. DONOT wash in dishwasher as strong detergents remove some of the natural
seasoning of the non-stick finish.
