Griddle Top
Empty grease daily. Clean griddle top regularly.
KEEP GRIDDLE PLATE SURFACE CLEAN. To produce evenly cooked, perfectly browned griddle products, keep griddle free of carbonized grease. Carbonized grease on the surface hinders the transfer of heat from the griddle surface to food. This results in spotty browning and loss of cooking efficiency; and worst of all, carbonized grease tends to cling to the griddled foods, giving them a highly unsatisfactory and unappetizing appearance. To keep the griddle clean and operating at peak efficiency, follow these simple instructions:
After Each Use
Clean griddle with a wire brush or flexible spatula.
Daily
1.Thoroughly clean backsplash, sides and front. Remove grease drawer, empty it and wash it out in the same manner as any ordinary cooking utensil.
2.Clean griddle surface thoroughly. Use a griddle stone, wire brush or stainless steel wool on the surface. Rub with the grain of the metal while the griddle is still warm. A detergent may be used on the plate surface to help clean it, but you must make sure the detergent is thoroughly removed. After removal of the detergent, the surface of the plate should then be reseasoned (see BEFORE FIRST USE).
If the griddle is to be shut down for an extended period, put a heavy coat of grease over the griddle plate.
3.Clean stainless surfaces with a damp cloth and polish with a soft dry cloth. To remove discolorations, use a nonabrasive cleaner.
