USING THE GRIDDLE

Each 12" section of the griddle is independently controlled by a thermostat. Turn the thermostat(s) to the desired setting. If different temperature settings are to be used, adjoining areas should be set at progressively higher temperatures, the lowest temperature being adjacent to one side. CAUTION:

DO NOT overheat the griddle plate by setting thermostats well above recommended temperatures. Overheating the plate may cause plate warpage and will carbonize the grease on the plate, causing sticking. See SUGGESTED TEMPERATURES AND TIMES FOR GRIDDLING in this manual.

Turn the burners on about 15-20 minutes before cooking to preheat.

A uniform and systematic approach to the loading of the griddle will produce the most consistent product results.
