Operation, Cleaning, Care and Maintenance

Operation

Your Griddle/Cheesemelter should be turned on prior to usage to allow the cooking surface to warm up; 5 minutes should be sufficient.

To get efficient use out of this unit while in intermittent use, it is recommended that the thermostat be turned down, when not cooking. This will assist in reducing power consumption and also allow for a quicker heating response when needed.

Cecilware recommends that the cooking surface be lightly greased before each use. For cheesemelting or finishing, simply adjust the grilling grid to your needs beneath the hotplate and element.

Turn the thermostat dial towards the “ON” position. The amber pilot light will activate to confirm this; adjust the dial to the required setting. As the grill plate fluctuates in temperature, the thermostat will operate to maintain set temperature and the light will continue to indicate when the elements are heating or have reached the required temperature. Both the cheesemelter and the grill plate run off the one element and thermostat.

A temperature setting of between 375º F and 430º F will be sufficient for general cooking. This may vary for a particular food type, individual needs, or experience.

Simply place the food products on the grilling surface and cook to your needs. For cheesemelting or finishing, place the food products on the grilling grid supplied and slide into the unit.

Cleaning, Care and Maintenance

*Switch the power off and disconnect from power source when cleaning.

*The Griddle/Cheesemelter should be cleaned regularly throughout use, and thoroughly cleaned after each meal period. Regular cleaning will result in easier cleaning, as the build up of waste food particles will be less. Correct preparation of the cooking surface when first used will assist in keeping the plates clean.

*For best results, clean the plates while still warm using warm soapy water. A nylon cleaning cloth can be used, but it is recommended that steel wool etc. be avoided, as they will damage the plates. Do not use cold water on warm plates; a buckling effect may occur.

*When scrubbing the plates, take care not to clean back too far. If you do, you may have to prepare the cooking surface again before use.

*Remove the waste and crumb trays from unit and discard waste; clean in hot soapy water.

*The remainder of the Griddle/Cheesemelter can be cleaned with a damp cloth using hot, soapy water.

*Warm soapy water is recommended for cleaning, cleaning agents after prolonged use can damage stainless steel.
