Using the Electric Griddle (available on some models)

Description

The built-in griddle is made of restaurant-quality aluminum that has a non-stick titanium coating. This produces a surface with even heat that is easy to clean.

A maple cutting board (PA12CHPBLK), stainless steel cover (PA12CVRJ), and coated-aluminum grill plate (PA12GRILHC) are available as accessories and are purchased separately. The maple cutting board and stainless steel cover are sized to fit on top of the surface when the griddle is not being used. The titanium-coated aluminum grill plate accessory is designed to replace the griddle plate. See the instructions that come with the grill plate accessory for more details.

The maple cutting board and stainless steel cover must be removed before turning the griddle on.

•The griddle is electronically controlled with temperatures marked on the knob from 150 – 500°F (66 – 260°C).

•There are no fixed settings on the knob.

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

•The griddle plate (or grill plate accessory) must always be in place when the griddle is turned on.

•The electric griddle element is rated 120 volts AC, 1,630 watts.

Preparing the Griddle

If the rangetop is equipped with an electric griddle, check the griddle frame adjustment by pouring two tablespoons of water on the back of the griddle plate. The water should slowly roll into the grease tray. If not, adjust the two screws under the back of the frame. Start with one half turn counterclockwise (CCW) of the screws. Further adjustment should be made by one-quarter turn until water slowly flows into the grease tray (Figure 18).

CAUTION:

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

WARNING:

To avoid risk of injury, NEVER operate griddle without the griddle plate installed. NEVER use griddle in a manner that is not prescribed by the Use and Care Guide.

Move griddle plate to the side and turn leveling screws

Figure 18: Griddle Plate Leveling Screws

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. DO NOT cut directly on the griddle plate.
