User Maintenance

Always exercise caution when handling the Griddler® Deluxe during cooking. Open and close the unit using the handle only. Do not touch the arms or top cover during or immediately after cooking, as they become hot during use. We recommend you wear oven mitts when handling the Griddler® Deluxe to prevent burns.

Never use metal utensils, which will scratch the nonstick plates. Instead, use wooden or heat-proof plastic utensils.

Never leave plastic utensils in contact with the hot grill plates. This includes the cleaning tool that is included.

In between recipes, use cleaning/ scraping tool to scrape excess food buildup through grease channels and into the drip tray. Wipe off any residue with a paper towel before proceeding with next recipe.

Allow the Griddler® Deluxe to cool down completely (at least 30 minutes) before cleaning.

Any other servicing should be performed by an authorized service representative.

STORAGE

Wrap the power cord around the cord storage clips at the back of the base.
