BEFORE USINGYOUR WOK FOR THE FIRST TIME

Remove all

packaging materials and temporary labels from the Wok Pan.

1.For Models GP24WK and GPS484WK, check that you have these items:

•One Wok Pan with Lid

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 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 theWok Pan. Do not scour because scouring will remove seasoning.

BEFORE USINGYOUR GRIDDLE FOR THE FIRST TIME

Remove protective sealant on surface of griddle.

The built-in griddle is made of restaurant quality, polished steel. It is shipped with a removable sealant which prevents the steel from rusting.

Remove this protective coating before using the griddle:

1.Use paper towels to wipe off the sealant.

2.Clean the surface thoroughly with hot, soapy water.

2.Rinse with a mixture of 1/4 cup white vinegar to 1 quart of water. Dry thoroughly.

4. Season the griddle immediately after removing the sealant. See Page 21.
