Section Four: USING THE COOKTOP

Using the 12" and 24" Electric Griddle

(Available on some models)

DESCRIPTION

The built in griddle is made of restaurant quality aluminum coated with titanium. This produces a surface with even heat that is easy to clean.

A maple chopping block and stainless steel cover are available as accessories and are purchased separately. Both are sized to fit on top of the surface when the griddle is not being used.

The maple chopping block and stainless steel cover must be removed before turning the griddle on.

•The 12” electric griddle element is rated 120 volts AC, 1,600 watts. The 24” electric griddle element is rated 240 volts AC, 3,200 watts.

•The visible gaps between the griddle plate and cooktop sides allows for expansion during heating.

CAUTION

The griddle element is hot after use. Allow sufficient time for griddle components to cool before cleaning.

CONTROL KNOB

GRIDDLE (*SEE NOTE)

Control Knob

•The griddle is electronically controlled with temperatures marked on the knob from 150ºF to 500°F.

•There are no fixed settings on the knob.

•Press and turn the knob counter-clockwise to the temperature setting.

*NOTE: The 24" griddle uses two control knobs, one knob for "GRIDDLE LEFT" and one knob for "GRIDDLE RIGHT."

PREPARING THE GRIDDLE

The griddle must be tilted slightly forward for optimum performance. See Installation Manual for procedure

to check and adjust griddle for proper tilt of griddle plate. During installation, the installer is responsible for leveling the product.

The griddle plate should be washed with warm soapy water then rinsed with clear water prior to use. The griddle may be used without any butter, margarine or oil. However, a very small amount may be used to flavor foods.

Any utensil may be used on the griddle surface. Care should be taken that the surface is not gouged when utensils are used.

1.Check that the grease tray is tucked under the griddle plate overhang.

2.Turn the knob to the cooking temperature and preheat the griddle for 10 - 12 minutes.

3.Add butter, margarine, oil or shortening if desired.
