Griddle Downdraft Ventilation System
The built-in downdraft ventilation system removes cooking vapors,
odors and smoke from foods prepared on the cooktop.
IMPORTANT: For optimal performance, operate the downdraft
ventilation system with the lter properly installed.
To avoid the buildup of grease, the lter should be cleaned often.
For more information on proper lter placement and cleaning, see
“Downdraft Ventilation System” in the “General Cleaning” section.
Griddle installed on right side of cooktop
To Use the Griddle:
1. Locate the griddle on the right side grate, as shown. The
locating feet on the bottom of the griddle will engage the grate
tines to keep the griddle from sliding.
2. Before each use, brush on a thin layer of cooking oil to keep
food from sticking. Cooking sprays may leave a sticky residue
on the griddle that is hard to remove.
3. Preheat the griddle for 5 minutes. Preheating the griddle slowly
will ensure even heat distribution and will avoid warping the
griddle.
4. For preheating and cooking, set the front burner to the lowest
heat setting and the rear burner to medium-high heat for best
performance.
NOTE: The griddle may also be used on the left side grate. For
best results, the rear burner setting should be set to Medium-
Low or Medium, and the front burner setting should be set to
Low.
To Clean the Griddle:
1. Let the griddle cool, and then empty the drip tray.
2. See the “General Cleaning” section for cleaning instructions.
3. Store griddle in a cool dry place.
Cookware
IMPORTANT: Do not leave empty cookware on a hot surface
cooking area, element or surface burner.
Ideal cookware should have a at bottom, straight sides and a
well-tting lid, and the material should be of medium-to-heavy
thickness.
Rough nishes may scratch the cooktop. Aluminum and copper
may be used as a core or base in cookware. However, when used
as a base, they can leave permanent marks on the surfaces.
Cookware material is a factor in how quickly and evenly heat is
transferred, which affects cooking results. A nonstick nish has the
same characteristics as its base material. For example, aluminum
cookware with a nonstick nish will take on the properties of
aluminum.
Cookware with nonstick surfaces should not be used under the
broiler.
Check for atness by placing the straight edge of a ruler across
the bottom of the cookware. While you rotate the ruler, no space
or light should be visible between it and the cookware.
