Section Four: Using the Griddle’n Grill

GRIDDLE‘N GRILL OPERATION

GRIDDLE’n GRILL™

(Model SGS)

GRIDDLE ONLY

(Model SGN)

Your new Thermador Griddle’n Grill is a dual purpose electric appliance; a griddle and a grill. The griddle and the grill are used separately and must sit directly on the element for best cooking results. If the griddle or the grill does not sit on the element, it will not heat enough for foods to cook properly.

The Griddle’n Grill control has an infinite number of heat settings. There are no fixed positions between HI and LO.

To turn the element ON, push in on the control knob and turn it in either direction to the desired setting. See chart for the griddle settings.

When ON, this element cycles a per- centage of HI power on and off to maintain the selected heat setting. On HI it does not cycle.

Griddle Finish

The aluminum griddle is very durable. It features a stick resistant surface that is an integral part of the metal; it is not a coating. This hardness is achieved through a special anodizing process which changes the surface metal struc- ture. This surface will not rust, chip or peel. Because of it hardness, metal utensils may be used on it while cook- ing; however, cutting food with a knife or other sharp utensil should be avoided.

Stains, Shadows

Stains on the finish usually result from improper cleaning of the griddle. Minor stains, shadows or images are considered normal and do not effect the performance of the griddle. To maintain good performance and ap- pearance, always follow the cleaning instructions, see Page 24.

BEFORE USING THE GRIDDLE or THE GRILL

Wash the griddle and the grill with hot sudsy water, then rinse thoroughly with clear hot water and dried. This should remove any manufacturing oils which may still be on the surface. A small amount of oil or butter applied after preheating helps to prevent sticking.
