OPERATION GRIDDLE OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
11
SEASONING
The metal surface of the griddle has microscopic pores. It is important
to fill the pores with oil to provide a hard, non-stick cooking surface.
1. Turn GRIDDLE TEMPERATURE CONTROL (G.01) clockwise to
375ºF. Allow the griddle to heat until the GRIDDLE HEAT ON
INDICATOR (G.02) goes OFF, showing that the griddle is up to the
set temperature.
2. Spread a light film of oil over the entire griddle surface.
3. Allow the oil film to "cook in" for 2 - 3 minutes, or until the oil
smokes.
4. Wipe the griddle surface with a clean cloth to remo ve any standing
oil.
5. For new griddles, repeat this procedure 2 - 3 times, until the griddle
has a slick, clean surface.
COOKING WITH YOUR GRIDDLE
1. Turn the GRIDDLE TEMPERATURE CONTROL (G.01) to the
desired cooking temperature. The solid-state thermostatic
controller will automatically maintain set temperature.
2. The GRIDDLE HEAT ON INDICATOR(G.02) will be ON when the
heating elements are energized.
COOKING WITH YOUR HOTPLATE
1. Each element is individually controlled by a TEMPERATURE
CONTROL (H.01 and H.03). These are infinite switch controls
which control based on time on vs time off, not the actual
temperature of the hotplate surface.
2. Settings are OFF to HIGH. Switch position is an indication of
temperature in that higher numbers indicate a higher temperature.
3. The associated indicator will be lit when the switch is in any
position other than OFF.
4. When set to HIGH, the hotplate element can reach maximum
temperature in seconds. This eliminates the nee d to pre-heat.
5. Once liquid begins to boil, reduce the setting to minimize power
consumption and increase the useful life of the elements.
6. Use cooking pans which fully cover the elements for maximum
efficiency.
