Griddle/Simmer Plate (on applicable models)
The optional 15,000 BTU griddle is constructed of machined steel with a blanchard finisih and is uniquely designed to offer
excellent cooking performance as well as easy cleanup. The griddle is equipped with an electronic thermostat to maintain an
even temperature across the griddle once the desired temperature has been set. The griddle has a power “ON” indicator light
which glows when the griddle thermostat has been turned on. This will cycle on and off as needed to indicate the thermostat is
maintaining the selected temperature. Before the griddle is used it is important to season the griddle. This seasoning process
will change the appearance of the griddle plate. However, it will also prevent food from sticking and protect the surface from
moisture.
Seasoning the Griddle Before the First Use
• Scrub the griddle plate with a mixture of one quart warm water and 1/4 cup white vinegar, using a blue Scotch-Brite™ pad.
Dry thoroughly.
• Wash griddle with warm, soapy water. Rinse off and dry thoroughly.
• Season griddle by thinly coating the surface with approximately 1⁄2 to 1 teaspoon unsalted vegetable oil. Apply to entire
griddle using a paper towel or clean cloth. Let oil sit on griddle for approximately 1 hour and then wipe with a clean cloth or
paper towel to absorb any residual oil. The griddle is now ready to be used.
Griddle/Simmer Plate Operation
• Turn the griddle control knob counterclockwise to the desired temperature setting. The power “ON” indicator light will glow
indicating the griddle thermostat is on.
• When the griddle has reached the desired temperature, the power “ON” indicator light will turn off, indicating the griddle is
preheated to the selected temperature.
• Use liquid cooking oil or butter for eggs, pancakes, French toast, fish and sandwiches to prevent sticking.
• Routinely scrape loose food particles with a metal spatula during cooking to make the cleanup easier and to avoid the
particles mixing with the food.
• To turn the griddle off, turn the thermostat knob clockwise to the “OFF” position.
• ALWAYS turn to the“OFF” position when not in use and lower the heat between cooking loads.
