Operation, Before First USE | Vulcan-Hart 924A ML-52592 instruction

OPERATION

WARNING: THE GRIDDLE AND ITS PARTS ARE HOT. USE CARE WHEN OPERATING, CLEANING AND SERVICING THE GRIDDLE.

This griddle plate is steel, but the surface is relatively soft and can be scored or dented by carelessly using a spatula. Be careful not to dent, scratch, or gouge the plate surface. Do not try to knock off loose food that may be on the spatula by tapping the corner or the edge of the spatula on the griddle surface.

CAUTION: Do not overheat the griddle plate by setting the thermostats above recommended temperatures. Overheating the plate may cause plate warpage, and will carbonize any grease on the plate which will cause sticking.

BEFORE FIRST USE

The griddle is shipped covered with a protective coating of grease. Remove this grease only when the griddle plate is being cleaned prior to its first use.

Seasoning Griddle

The metal surface of the griddle is porous. Food tends to get trapped in these pores and stick; therefore, it is important to “season” or “fill up” these pores with cooking oil before cooking on any metal-surfaced griddle. Seasoning gives the surface a slick, hard finish from which the food will release easily.

To season, heat the griddle to low temperature and pour on a small amount of cooking oil (about one ounce per square foot of surface). With a cloth, spread the oil over the entire griddle surface to create a thin film. Wipe off any excess oil with a cloth.

STANDARD GRIDDLES

Lighting the Pilot

NOTE: In case of power failure, do not attempt to operate the appliance.

Lighting instructions are inside the front panel. To open the front panel:

1.Remove two screws from upper front panel. Lift upper front panel until it clears the lower front panel.

2.To reinstall the upper front panel, place panel above lower front panel, slip upper panel down so it engages lower front panel. Reinstall the two screws from the upper front panel.

If the pilot goes out, an automatic shutoff valve turns off the gas supply to the griddle burners. To relight the griddle pilot, follow this procedure:

1.Turn the thermostat to OFF. Wait 5 minutes to allow gas which may have accumulated in the burner compartment to escape.

2.Turn the main shutoff valve ON.

3.Depress and hold in on the red button (Fig. 2) on the automatic shutoff valve while lighting the pilot burner.
