Before using the appliance for the first time, wipe off protective oil from the griddle
plates and wash down with a warm detergent solution.
Griddle plate (stainless steel): Coat with a light film of cooking oil
Clam plate (Aluminium): Fit the Teflon sheets to the clam plate before cooking.

IS 607 ECN 4345 Page 7 of 12
Switching on
Refer to Fig 2. With the clam heads in the raised position, turn on the power supply
at the isolating switch; the green neon illuminates indicating power to the appliance.
Turn the relevant thermostat control knobs to the required temperature; the
associated amber neon’s will illuminate. When the griddle plates reach the selected
temperature, the amber neon’s will extinguish. Place product onto the griddle plate
and lower the clam heads.
It is important to run the appliance with the heads raised when not cooking.
Keeping the heads raised will greatly extend the longevity of the Teflon sheets,
keep the griddle plate cleaner and less susceptible to burnt oil, whilst also reducing
the risk of the appliance overheating.
Standby
When no product is being cooked, always raise the clam heads. The appliance
may then be left operating at maximum temperature for a quick return to cooking, or
may be turned down to the minimum temperature until required. Independent
controls allow the versatility of both the griddle plate and the raised heads being set
separately according to requirements at the time.
Shutting down
Turn all the control knobs to the ‘Off’ position and switch off at the isolating socket.
Be aware that the appliance will remain hot for some time.
