GUIDE
WARNING:
• Failure to follow these instructions could result in SERIOUS BURNS to the person(s) cooking and/or person(s) in the
immediate area of cooking. Read and understand these instructions before you attempt to cook using the griddle.
• Always let the griddle cool before handling after each use.
• Place the pour spout and grease well of the griddle towards the front of the cooktop.
• Let drippings cool before pouring them out of the griddle grease well. Pour drippings from the griddle grease well by
tilting the griddle towards the corner pour spout. This directs the stream at an angle away from you, and is the safest way
to handle the griddle when the grease well is full.
• Never put a hot griddle into cool water as the steam produced could seriously scald you.

Notice
•The Thermador griddle is for use on the center grate only.
• Never use two griddles at the same time, as this will adversely affect the cooktop.
•Never preheat an empty griddle using a high ame.
• Do not overheat the griddle, as the Excalibur® coating may be damaged.
First Time Use and How to Position
• Before using the griddle for the rst time, wash with dish detergent, rinse and dry.
• Use medium to low heat settings.
• Align the feet of the griddle with the grate as shown in the drawing above.
• Place the pour spout and grease well of the griddle towards the front of the cooktop.
Tips for Using
• Do not cut food or use other sharp or metal utensils on the griddle.
• Nonstick food sprays are not recommended. They burn at low temperatures, leaving a surface residue that may affect the
performance.
• The griddle and handles get very hot during use. Always use hot pads.
• It is normal for the griddle to cook food, such as pancakes, somewhat faster with consecutive batches.
Griddle Cooking Chart
• Preheat on medium low and
medium ame settings.
• Preheat using lower ame settings
to start. It is easier to increase heat
than to quickly cool the griddle
once it is too hot.
• Length of preheat time depends
on ame setting and food.
Allowing 3 to 5 minutes is
average.
• Never preheat griddle on high
as this will overheat the griddle
causing food to burn.
• After use, let it cool down before
handling.
Care and Cleaning
• Allow the griddle to cool before cleaning.
• Never put a hot griddle in cool water.
• Wash the griddle in hot water with dish detergent. Rinse with
hot water and dry.
NOTE: If food residue is not removed after each use and
reheated, the nonstick performance will be affected.
Loosen hard-to-remove soils with a soft non-scratch sponge.
• Do not use abrasive cleansers or scouring pads.
• Remove white lm by rubbing vinegar on the area.
• Pour drippings away from you using the pour spout corner
of the griddle.
• Do not wash in the dishwasher.
• Refer to your cooktop Use and Care Guide for general
cleaning tips.
