GRIDDLE ACCESSORY
(continued)
Questions and Answers
Q. Can my griddle be switched to the other side of
the cooktop where it would be more convenient
for me?
A. Your interchangeable cooktop modules can be
used on either the right or left side of the cooktop
(on some models). When inserting or removing a
module, take care not to force the connection or
exert undue pressure which could damage the
electrical contacts.
Q. Can prolonged periods of high heat damage my
griddle’s surface?
A. A brief preheating period is often necessary for
best results with many foods, but leaving the
griddle on HI heat setting for more than 5 minutes
without food can damage the non-stick coating.
Always be sure to turn control knobs to OFF when
cooking is completed.
Q. Why aren’t my foods done even though they
have cooked the full time?
A. Preheat the griddle for a longer time and leave
foods on the griddle longer to attain the desired
degree of browning.
Q. Do I need special cookware for use with
my griddle?
A. Avoid using metal cookware with sharp points or
rough or sharp edges which might damage the non-
stick coated griddle surface. Do not cut foods on
the griddle. Use only heat-resistant dishes when
foods in containers are to be warmed on the griddle.
For further information on caring for your griddle’s
surface, see the Care and Cleaning section.
Q. How should I store my griddle when it is not
in use?
A. To avoid marring the non-stick finish, store the
griddle upright on the edge with the terminals up
to avoid damage. If it is necessary to store it flat,
avoid placing other pans or cookware on top.
Q. How long can foods be kept warm with the
griddle without losing their appeal?
A. No longer than 2 hours is recommended, to assure
good food quality and prevent spoilage. Delicate
foods, such as eggs, should not be kept more than
15 to 30 minutes; entrees and casseroles may be
warmed for 30 to 60 minutes. Hors d’oeuvres
will stay hot for serving up to 1 or 1
1
2 hours.
Rearrange or stir food occasionally, if possible.
