DAILY OPERATION GRIDDLE CARE It takes very little time and effort to keep the griddle attractive and performing at top efficiency. If grease is permitted to accumulate, it forms a viscous residue and then carbonizes, making it extremely difficult to remove. To prevent this condition, the following suggestions for cleanliness should be followed. i. STANDARD STEEL SURFACE After each use, scrape the griddle with a scraper or flexible spatula to remove excess grease and food and maneuver it into the grease chute. If there is an accumulation of burned on grease and/or food, the griddle should be thoroughly scoured and reseasoned. Use pumice or griddle stone while the griddle is warm. Do not use steel wool because of the danger of steel slivers getting into the food. CHROME SURFACE After each use, scrape the griddle with a razor-sharp scraper. Following that, use a soft, damp cloth and a non-silicate, non-abrasive, non-chlorinated cleaner to wipe the surface clean. Follow this by wiping with a clean damp cloth with no cleaner. On chrome surfaces, never use pumice, griddle stones, abrasives, commercial liquid grill cleaner, and never strike the griddle surface with a sharp and/or hard instrument. ii. Daily use a clean cloth and a good non-abrasive cleaner to clean the stainless steel body of the griddle is recommended. Wipe the polished front with a soft cloth so not to scratch the finish. iii. At least once a day, remove the grease drawer and wash it using the same process as an ordinary cooking utensil. The drawer is removed by pulling forward until it is released from its track. SEASONING THE GRIDDLE HEATING SURFACE After the griddle has been thoroughly cleaned, it should be seasoned to prevent food from sticking. Before using and after each thorough scouring, season the griddle heating surface in the following manner. i. Turn the temperature control dials to 0 F ( C). ii. Using a clean cloth, not a spatula, spread a thin film of cooking oil over the griddle cooking surface. This film should remain on the hot griddle surface for half an hour. iii. Remove the excess oil and wipe clean. iv. Apply another film of cooking oil over the hot cooking area for another half hour and again remove excess oil and wipe clean. The griddle surface should now be ready for use. TEMPERATURE CONTROL SNAP-ACTION THERMOSTAT To power on the elements, turn the adjustment knob to the desired temperature. Turning the dial knob automatically maintains the selected heat range. There is one thermostat for every twelve [] inch (0 mm) wide section that operate independently. SELECTRONIC SOLID STATE To power on the elements, flip the switch corresponding to each section you wish to use to the ON position. Next, Turn the adjustment knob to the desired temperature [this system adjusts in increments of F ( C)]. COOKING Set the thermostat dial knob at the desired temperature. After a short pre-heating period, the thermostat will automatically maintain the selected temperature. IDLING During idle periods, to save on operating costs, lower the temperature setting of the thermostat to about 0 F ( C). It is not necessary to maintain cooking temperature during idle periods, as the griddle can quickly be reheated to the desired temperature.
