INITIAL START UP
5.1 Initial Start Up
Before starting the griddle for the first time, clean the griddle body and cooking surface
with a mild soap and water solution then rinse with clear water and dry.
Set the main power switch, located at the far left of the control panel, to the "ON" (up)
position.
Set the temperature dials to 200 degrees.
Heat the griddle at 200 degrees for 2 hours to evaporate any moisture that may be in the
elements.
After 2 hours at 200 degrees, proceed with "SEASON THE COOKING SURFACE".
5.2 Season the Grill
The cooking surface must be "seasoned" in order to reduce product sticking.
To season, heat the griddle to 250 degrees.
Once at 250 degrees, coat the cooking surface with a non-salted vegetable oil.
Allow the griddle to stand at 250 degrees until the cooking surface looks dry then coat it
again.
Heat the griddle to 350 degrees and repeat the procedure.
The griddle may emit a small amount of smoke as the cooking surface passes the
350°point. Do not be alarmed as oils associated with the manufacturing process
may cause smoke and will stop when the griddle reaches 350 degrees.

OPERATION
CAUTION: ALWAYS KEEP THE AREA NEAR THE APPLIANCE
FREE FROM COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS.
CAUTION: KEEP FLOOR IN FRONT OF EQUIPMENT CLEAN AND
DRY. IF SPILLS OCCUR, CLEAN IMMEDIATELY, TO
AVOID THE DANGER OF SLIPS OR FALLS.
6.1 Setting the Temperature
If different temperature settings across the same griddle are to be used, select one
side of the griddle and run that at the lowest temperature. Adjoining sections
should be set at progressively higher temperatures. Do not try to run end sections
hot and center sections cool.
6.2 Loading the Grill
An understanding of how the griddle sections are controlled will be a valuable aid in
loading your griddle.
A thermostat independently controls each 12-inch section. The sensor for each is
mounted under the griddle plate in the center of each cooking section.
If product is loaded directly over the temperature sensor, that section will turn on and
the element will heat the entire cooking section. If the product is loaded to the side,
front or back of the temperature sensor, the controller will react to the temperature
change of the entire section instead of just one product.
During slow periods minimal loads, do not load directly over the temperature sensors as
this will unnecessarily turn the elements on and over heat the reminder of the section
not being utilized.
During busy periods, a systematic approach should be utilized in loading the griddle.
Load the entire section from rear to front and continue cooking to the next section if
necessary.
Turn the product and continue cooking until it has reached its desired degree of
doneness.
Remove the product from the griddle.
When reloading the griddle, first use the griddle surface on which a previous load
was not placed. This will ensure the proper griddle temperature.

CLEANING
WARNING: KEEP WATER AND SOLUTIONS OUT OF CONTROLS.
NEVER SPRAY OR HOSE CONTROL CONSOLE,
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS, ETC.
CAUTION: MOST CLEANERS ARE HARMFUL TO THE SKIN,
EYES, MUCOUS MEMBRANES AND CLOTHING.
PRECAUTIONS SHOULD BE TAKEN TO WEAR
RUBBER GLOVES, GOGGLES OR FACE SHIELD AND
PROTECTIVE CLOTHING. CAREFULLY READ THE
WARNING AND FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS ON THE
LABEL OF THE CLEANER TO BE USED.
7.1 Daily Cleaning (after each meal)
Empty the grease drawer often or whenever it is 3/4 full. Remove the grease drawer
after each meal and wash the inside and outside of the drawer.
Keep the griddle surface clean. After each cooking load, scrape the griddle surface with
a griddle scraper to remove any carbonized grease.
The griddle surface should be cleaned and re-seasoned. Use a griddle stone, griddle
pad, or liquid cleaner. Rub with the grain of the metal, being careful not to scrape the
splashguard.
Clean the exterior of the appliance with a hot water and chlorine solution to maintain a
gleaming appearance.
Be sure to rinse thoroughly and coat the cooking surface with a thin film of oil to
prevent rusting.
Re-season the griddle plate after each cleaning (refer to page 8).
