Cooking with a griddle (some models)
Figure 6: Griddle
The griddle is a versatile accessory that is perfect
for cooking foods that require large fl at surfaces
such as pancakes, French toast, grilled sandwiches,
bacon, and also for cooking di erent foods at the
same time.
After use, let the griddle cool before washing. Hand
wash with hot soapy water. Do not soak. Dry thor-
oughly. Do not put a griddle in a dishwasher.
If you would like to purchase a griddle, you can
order one from Frigidaire.com.
Using the griddle:
Place the griddle securely on top of the burner
grates. Preheat the griddle for 5 minutes on medi-
um to medium low setting. Slow preheat ensures
even heat distribution during the cooking process.
DO NOT preheat the griddle on HI setting. Preheat-
ing on HI may warp the griddle and prevent even
heat distribution.
