BEFORE USING YOUR WOK THE FIRST TIME

Remove all

packaging materials and temporary labels from the Wok Pan.

1.For models with a wok, check that you have one Wok Pan with Lid and Trivet.

2.The first time the Wok Pan is used, clean the surface thoroughly with hot soapy water. The initial cleaning is needed to remove the protective oil coating. Dry thoroughly.

3.Apply a light coat of vegetable oil (do not use corn or olive oil) to the entire inside and outside surface with a paper towel.

4.Heat the Wok Pan on a medium setting until cooking surface turns golden brown. Cool wok.

5.Repeat this procedure several times. This seasoning seals the pores of the metal, keeps food from sticking, and prevents the Wok from rusting.

6.Wipe off excess oil before using or storing the Wok Pan. Do not scour because scouring will remove seasoning.

BEFORE USING YOUR ELECTRIC GRIDDLE THE FIRST TIME

Clean the surface with hot soapy water. Rinse thoroughly with clear water. Check adjustment of griddle plate, for slight tilt forward. See INSTALLATION MANUAL. The griddle is now ready to use.
