food on griddle.
2. If preheating is not required, start cooking food at desired
temperature setting.

GRIDDLE CHART

The settings and times are guidelines only and may need to be
adjusted for individual tastes.
Griddle Accessory
The griddle accessory is a non-stick rectangular pan with extra
low sides, and is made of heavy-weight hand-cast aluminum. The
griddle is ideal for cooking pancakes, eggs, bacon, grilled cheese
sandwiches and hamburgers.
■Do not use knives or metal utensils on the griddle surface.
Use only plastic or nylon cooking utensils.
■Do not preheat on HI. Excessive heat will cause discoloration,
shorten the life of the surface, and may warp griddle and
cause damage to the cooktop.
■Do not pour cold water on a hot griddle. This may warp the
griddle, producing an uneven cooking surface.
■The griddle must be level to operate properly.
■Use oven mitts when removing the griddle from the surface
burners.
■Do not wash griddle in the dishwasher.

First Time Use:

1. Before cooking for the first time, wash the griddle in warm
soapy water with a sponge. Rinse with warm water and towel
dry.
2. Preheat griddle on medium setting for 5 minutes.
Allow griddle to cool completely.
3. Apply a light coating of vegetable oil or non-stick cooking
spray to griddle.
To Us e:
1. Place griddle over surface cooking grate, and push in and
turn the control knob to the MED setting. Preheat griddle for
5 minutes.
2. Place foods on griddle, and choose correct temperature
setting for foods according to your recipe.
A nonstick cooking spray is recommended when cooking
foods that typically have little or no fat.

Cleaning and Storing the Griddle Accessory:

REMEMBER: Allow the griddle to cool completely before
cleaning.
Clean the griddle shortly after removing food. Make sure the
burner has been turned off before cleaning.
Wash the griddle after each use in hot, soapy water, and use a
nonabrasive or plastic scrub pad to remove food residue.
After cleaning, dry the griddle surface with a soft cloth or sponge.
To protect the griddle finish and prevent scratching, it is
recommended that the griddle be stored separately from other
cookware. If the griddle must be stacked with other cookware,
place a paper towel on top of the griddle surface.
Home Canning
When canning for long periods, alternate the use of surface
cooking areas, elements or surface burners between batches.
This allows time for the most recently used areas to cool.
■Center the canner on the grate or largest surface cooking
area or element. Canners should not extend more than 1 in.
(2.5 cm) outside the cooking area.
■Do not place canner on two surface cooking areas, elements
or surface burners at the same time.
■For more information, contact your local U.S. Government
Agricultural Department Extension Office. In Canada, contact
Agriculture Canada. Companies that manufacture home
canning products can also offer assistance.
Cookware
IMPORTANT: Never leave empty cookware on a hot surface
cooking area, element or surface burner.
Ideal cookware should have a flat bottom, straight sides, a well-
fitting lid and the material should be of medium-to-heavy
thickness.
Rough finishes may scratch the cooktop. Aluminum and copper
may be used as a core or base in cookware. However, when used
as a base they can leave permanent marks on the cooktop or
grates.
Cookware material is a factor in how quickly and evenly heat is
transferred, which affects cooking results. A nonstick finish has
the same characteristics as its base material. For example,
aluminum cookware with a nonstick finish will take on the
properties of aluminum.
