Infrared Griddle

The optional griddle is thermostatically controlled, which means once the set temperature is reached, the heat cycles to hold that temperature. To prevent food from sticking and to protect the surface from moisture, it is necessary to “season” the griddle prior to use. This seasoning process as well as general use will change the appearance of the griddle.

SEASON THE GRIDDLE

•The griddle is shipped with a protective oil coating the surface, use hot water and detergent to clean. Rinse and dry.

•Turn on the ventilation hood five minutes prior to using the griddle.

•The griddle needs to go through a “burn in” period. Turn the griddle on at 350°F (175°C) for 30 minutes to clean oils from the bottom of the griddle. After 30 minutes, turn the griddle off and allow it to cool.

•To season, pour a teaspoon (5 ml) of peanut or vegetable oil per single griddle in the center; spread evenly with a paper towel, avoiding the corners. Be careful not to apply too much oil. Excess oil will leave a gummy residue that will have to be removed.

•Push and turn the control knob to 350°F (175°C). Heat until you see the first signs of smoke. Turn the griddle off. When the griddle has cooled and is only slightly warm, wipe off any excess oil. Let the griddle cool completely.

•Repeat with another teaspoon of oil. The brown appearance will darken with use.

GRIDDLE OPERATION

IMPORTANT NOTE: The stainless steel cover must be removed prior to operating the griddle.

•Turn on the ventilation hood five minutes prior to using the griddle.

•To heat the griddle, push in the control knob and turn counterclockwise to the desired temperature. It is normal to hear a clicking sound. This is the electronic ignition lighting the burner. When the burner is lit, the thermostat will control the temperature.

•When the griddle is preheated, the griddle indicator light will go out. The light will cycle on and off as the thermostat requires more heat to maintain the set temperature. This will allow heat to be evenly distrib- uted and the griddle to maintain the set temperature.

•The double griddle has two burners with separate control knobs that act independently of each other. If only one griddle is being used, there will be some heat transfer to the inactive griddle.

•To turn the griddle off, turn the control knob clockwise to the OFF position.
