CLEAN THOROUGHLY BEFORE FIRST USE
A vegetable oil cooking spray is applied to the cook surface at the factory to help protect from corrosion during shipping� The cook
surface must be thoroughly cleaned before use� Follow these instructions:
1. Make sure the Grease/Debris Trays are in place�
2. Turn the Plancha ON and allow to heat for 5 minutes� Then turn the Plancha OFF and wait for 5 minutes�
3. Wipe the cook surface using a wet towel, dampened with a small amount of water and a mild dish detergent� Then rinse with a
towel dampened with clean water 3-4 times� Wipe the surface down with a dry towel and the Plancha is ready for service�
CAUTION: THE COOKING SURFACE WILL BE HOT! USE CAUTION WHEN WIPING SURFACE,
PAYING PARTICULAR ATTENTION TO AVOID STEAM FROM DAMP TOWELS.
BASIC OPERATION
Use the Power Switch on the Front Panel to turn on the Plancha� This appliance utilizes an automatic ignition system—there are no
standing pilots to manually light� Press the Power Switch to the OFF position to turn off the Plancha�
At start-up, the red RESET light next to the Power Switch will be illuminated until the automatic ignition system has successfully lit
the pilot� This is typically not more than a few seconds� However, when initially starting the unit up after installation, pilot ignition
will likely take longer while air in the gas line purges—the light will remain illuminated until the pilot lights� NOTE: If the red
RESET light illuminates during operation of the Plancha, turn the power switch to the OFF position, wait 5 minutes, then restart the
Plancha�
When the Plancha is first turned on the Heat Indicator Light for each zone will be illuminated until its zone reaches the
temperature set on the Temperature Control Knob (appx 18–20 minutes)� After the set temperature has been reached, a Heat
Indicator Light will only illuminate when the temperature of its corresponding zone has dropped below the temperature set on the
Temperature Control Knob� For example, an Indicator Light may illuminate after a large food load is placed on the cooking surface�
The Plancha Controller automatically adjusts the runtime of the burners suppling heat to each zone to maintain the set point
temperature�

DAILY USE & MAINTENANCE
DAILY USE AND MAINTENANCE
1. Check and empty the Grease/Debris Trays frequently throughout the day� Keep the drain clear and do not allow the trays to
overflow�
2. The cooking surface should be scraped periodically throughout the day� To remove loose debris use a dry towel�
CAUTION: COOK SURFACE IS VERY HOT!
3. When using chemicals to clean the grill surface, first shut down the Plancha and allow it to cool� If the Plancha is too hot, the
chemical may tend to boil or burn off immediately and not work as effectively� Do not pour water onto a hot Plancha to cool it
as this can warp the cook surface�
DO NOT USE EXCESSIVE AMOUNTS OF WATER TO CLEAN THE PLANCHA. Be careful when using scrapers on the cook
surface to avoid scratching or gouging the top� Be aware that the cook surface is made of mild steel—it will not clean to
a shiny silver-like surface� Do not use heavy duty degreasers or oven cleaners on the Plancha as these are not generally
intended for use on hot surfaces�
Damage caused by using spray hoses or excessive water, or scratching or marring of the cook surface, is not covered by the
warranty�
4. The front, sides, and back may be wiped down with a cloth and mild detergent if needed� Do not use abrasive cleaners or
scouring pads as these will scratch the stainless steel�
