CLEANING THE GRIDDLE

Empty the grease drawer as needed throughout the day and regularly clean at least once daily.

Clean the griddle regularly. A clean griddle always looks better, lasts longer and performs better. To produce evenly cooked, perfectly browned griddle products keep the griddle plate clean and free of carbonized grease. Carbonized grease on the surface hinders the transfer of heat from the griddle surface to the food, resulting in spotty browning and loss of cooking efficiency. Carbonized grease tends to cling to griddle foods, giving them a highly unsatisfactory and unappetizing appearance.

To keep the griddle clean and operating at peak efficiency, follow these procedures:

AFTER EACH USE

Clean the griddle with a wire brush, flexible spatula.

ONCE PER DAY

Thoroughly clean the griddle back splash, sides and front. Remove, empty and wash the grease drawer in the same manner as an ordinary cooking utensil.

ONCE PER WEEK

Clean the griddle surface thoroughly. Use a griddle stone, screen, or Scotch Bright pad on the surface as necessary. Rub with the grain of the metal while the griddle is still warm (not hot). A detergent may be used on the plate surface to help clean it, but be sure the detergent is thoroughly removed by flushing with clear water.

After removal of detergent the surface of the plate the griddle should be seasoned according to the instructions in this manual.

Clean stainless steel surfaces with a damp cloth and polish with a soft dry cloth. To remove discoloration, use a griddle cleaner.

If the griddle usage is very high, consider conducting this weekly cleaning procedure more than once per week.

CLEANING A CHROME GRIDDLE PLATE

AFTER EACH USE

Clean the griddle with a palmetto brush of flexible spatula. NEVER USE AN ABRASIVE SCOURING PAD OR GRIDDLE STONE ON A CHROME PLATE SURFACE.

ONCE PER DAY

Thoroughly clean backsplash, sides, and front. Do not hit the backsplash with a spatula or any other tool. This may create a gap between the splash and griddle plate that is hard to clean.

Clean stainless steel and chrome surfaces with a damp cloth and polish with a soft dry cloth.
