The Griddle
1
The griddle fits a single pan support, front to back. It is designed for cooking food on directly. Don’t use pans of any kind on it. The griddle surface is non- stick and metal cooking utensils (e.g. spatulas) will damage the surface. Use heat resistant plastic or wooden utensils.
2
Don’t put it crossways - it will not fit properly and will be unstable.
Don’t put it on the High burner - it is not designed to fit the High burner pan support.
3
Position the griddle over the hotplate burners resting on the pan support. The griddle can be lightly brushed with cooking oil before use. Light the hotplate burners. Adjust the flame heights to suit.
4
Preheat the griddle for a maximum of 5 minutes before adding food. Leaving it longer may cause damage. You can reduce the heat by turning the control knobs towards the lower position (marked with the small flame symbol).
5
Always leave space around the griddle for the gases to escape. Never fit two griddles side by side. Large pans should also be spaced well apart. The maximum pan base diameter is 250mm.
Use the following heat settings as a guide for griddle cooking.
High/medium:
Drop scones, Bacon, Chops, Steak, Burgers.
Medium/low:
Potato cakes, Eggs, Fish cakes.
Experience will soon familiarise you with the correct setting to use for cooking.
After cooking allow the griddle to cool before cleaning.
Warmer
Use the warmer for keeping food warm while the final touches are put to a meal. Turn the control knob
a covered serving dish for 10 minutes before adding food to it.
CAUTION:- If a crack in the Warmer surface becomes visible, due to accidental damage etc., isolate the appliance from the electricity supply immediately by turning it off at the wall and arrange for its repair.
DO NOT RECONNECT THE COOKER TO THE
ELECTRICITY SUPPLY UNTIL AFTER REPAIR!
