The lower housing is made of plastic, and
while it will become very warm, it will not
burn you. If you need to move the Griddler
®
Compact during cooking, be sure to handle
it from the base only while wearing oven
mitts. Do not touch the cover.
Allow the Griddler
®
Compact to cool down
before handling (at least 30 minutes).
NOTE: The first time you use the Griddler
®
Compact, it may have a slight odor and may
smoke a bit. This is normal and common to
appliances with nonstick surfaces.
The Griddler
®
Compact comes with a black
cleaning/scraping tool. This can be used for
cleaning both the grill and griddle sides of
the plates after you have finished cooking
and the unit has cooled down completely (at
least 30 minutes). Using the cleaning/
scraping tool on a hot surface for too long
will cause the plastic to melt.
USER MAINTENANCE
• Never use metal utensils, as they will
scratch the nonstick plates. Instead, use
only wooden or heat-proof plastic utensils.
• Never leave plastic utensils in contact with
the hot grill plates. This includes the
provided cleaning/scraping tool.
• In between recipes, use a wooden or heat-
proof plastic utensil to scrape excess food
buildup through grease channels and into
drip cup, then wipe off any residue with a
paper towel before proceeding with next
recipe.
• Allow the Griddler
®
Compact to cool down
completely (at least 30 minutes) before
cleaning.
CLEANING AND CARE
CAUTION: BEFORE CLEANING
APPLIANCE, MAKE SURE IT IS
UNPLUGGED AND HAS COOLED
DOWN COMPLETELY.
Once you have finished cooking, turn the
temperature knob to the OFF position and
unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
Allow the unit to cool down for at least 30
minutes before handling.
Use the cleaning/scraping tool to remove
any leftover food from the cooking plates.
The cleaning/scraping tool can be washed
by hand or in the dishwasher.
Dispose of grease from the drip tray once
cooled. The drip tray can be cleaned by
hand or in the dishwasher.
Press the plate release buttons to remove
plates from the housing. Be sure that the
plates have cooled completely before
handling (at least 30 minutes). The cooking
plates can be washed in the dishwasher. Do
not use metal objects such as knives or
forks for cleaning. Do not use a scouring
pad for cleaning; the nonstick coating can
be damaged.
If you have been cooking seafood, wipe the
cooking plates with lemon juice to prevent
the seafood flavor from transferring to the
next recipe.
The housing base, cover and temperature
knob can be wiped clean with a soft, dry
cloth. For tough stains, dampen cloth. Never
use an abrasive cleaner or harsh pad.
STORAGE
Always make sure the Griddler
®
Compact is
cool and dry before storing.
The power cord can be wrapped around the
back of the base for storing.
