GRIDDLE/SIMMER PLATE (select models)
The optional griddle is constructed of machined steel with a chrome nish and is uniquely designed to o er excellent cooking performance as
well as easy clean up. 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 o as needed to indicate the thermostat is maintaining the selected temperature.
Before the griddle is used, it is important to clean the griddle with hot, soapy water, then dry. Use only heat resistant plastic or wooden
utensils to avoid scratching chrome surface.

• 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.
• Routinely scrape loose food particles with a heat resistant plastic or wooden spatula during cooking to make the clean-up easier and to avoid

• Corn oil is not recommended as it has a high sugar content. It will caramelize and burn on the cooking surface making removal of residue very
di cult.
