e.
Fornew griddles,repeatthis procedure2-3times until the
griddle has a slick, clean surface.
Inspectthe unit forcleanliness before use. Cleanas necessary:See
Cleaning Instructions, page 11.
Be
sure the pilotlight is litbefore operation. See Lighting thePilot
Light, page 8.
The burner control knobsmust be turned by hand only. Never use
