About the 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 electric griddle element is rated 120 volts AC, 1,600 watts.

CAUTION:

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