SPECIAL CARE:
1.A spotted white film may form on the non-stick surface. This is a buildup of minerals from food or water and is not a defect in the surface. To remove, soak a soft cloth in lemon juice or vinegar and rub on the cool surface. Wash the non-stick surface thoroughly, rinse and dry. Recondition the non-stick surface with cooking oil.
2.The non-stick surface may also become stained from improper cleaning or overheating. To remove stains, clean the non-stick surface by the following method. Combine 1 cup of water and 1 tablespoon of ONE of the following cleaners: Dip-It® coffee pot destainer, automatic dishwasher detergent or dry oxygen bleach crystals. USE ONLY ONE OF THE ABOVE CLEANERS; DO NOT COMBINE. Make sure the grease cup is in place. Preheat the griddle to 225°F (107°C). Wearing rubber gloves dip the sponge into the water mixture and wipe over the surface.
Continue the cleaning procedure until the mixture is gone. Turn griddle to “OFF” and allow to cool. Remove the temperature control and grease cup. Scour the non-stick surface of the griddle with warm, soapy water and a non-metal scouring pad. Rinse thoroughly and dry. Wash the grease cup in warm, soapy water and dry. Slide the grease cup back into the griddle. Recondition the non- stick surface with cooking oil before using.
