Griddle Accessory

Using the griddle:

1. Before the first use, wash your new

griddle in hot soapy water, rinse and
dry. Then “condition” the surface by
wiping on a thin coating of cooking
oil or shortening. Remove excess oil
or shortening by wiping again with
another paper towel.

2. Insert grill burner. DO NOT use

grill grate.

3. Place griddle over grill burner so that

the drain holes are in front. This will
permit excess grease to be collected
in the grease container.

4. Preheat the griddle 5 to 10 minutes

at the specified setting as noted in
the Griddle Guide.

5. Use non-metallic spatulas or utensils

while cooking to prevent damaging
the finish.

IMPORTANT:

IN CASE OF A POWER FAILURE,
THE VENTILATION SYSTEM WILL NOT
OPERATE. DO NOT USE THE GRILL
MODULE OR GRIDDLE IF THE
VENTILATION SYSTEM IS NOT
OPERATIONAL.
