DCS RGS-366, RGS-486GL Griddle USE, Before Using the Griddle for the First Time or to RE-SEASON

GRIDDLE USE

The built-in griddle on your cooktop is made from Type 304 stainless steel, highly polished to provide a smooth cooking surface. It is normal for it to darken with use as oils cook onto the surface to provide a stick resistant base or “seasoning”. Since the griddle is made from stainless steel, the surface will not rust. The griddle burner is thermostatically controlled and cycles on and off to maintain the set temperature. The “Heating” light indicates that the burner is “on”. The griddle assembly is not to be removed for cleaning and is held in place by two front screws and one rear screw. These are mainly there to keep the griddle from shifting in transit and positioning, thus avoiding breakage of any ignition components. Once the unit is in position, the rear shipping screw can be removed. It is located beneath the griddle flue cover which is removed by lifting off (be careful not to scratch your backguard during removal of the cover). Remove the center shipping screw. The two outer screws are leveling screws. They can be turned to level the griddle or to provide a forward slope to help grease and oils to drain away from the food being cooked. After using the griddle a few times, you will be able to judge the slope best for the foods you are cooking and your personal preference.

BEFORE USING THE GRIDDLE FOR THE FIRST TIME OR TO RE-SEASON

1)Clean the griddle thoroughly with hot, soapy water to remove any protective coating.

2)Rinse with a mixture of 1 quart water and 1 cup white vinegar. Dry thoroughly.

3)Pour 1 teaspoon vegetable oil into the center of the griddle (do not use corn oil as it gets sticky). Rub the oil over the entire surface of the griddle using a heavy cloth.

4)Turn the control knob to a Medium setting (350ºF). Turn the heat Off when the oil begins to smoke. Allow the griddle to cool.

5)Repeat Step 3. Be sure to cover the entire surface with the oil.

6)Repeat Step 4. Allow the griddle to cool. Wipe the entire surface of the griddle using a heavy cloth. Apply a very thin layer of vegetable oil.The griddle is now ready to use. If the griddle is not used for a period of time, re-season it occasionally.

NOTE: It is normal for the griddle to darken with use.
