must be seasoned,

of time, it should be reseasoned.
1. Cleonthe griddle thoroughly with hot, soapy
water to remove any protective coating.
2. Wipe the surface using a solution of 1
quart water and 1 cup white vinegar. Dry
thoroughly.
3. Usea paper towel and wipe 1 tablespoon
vegetable oil evenly across the griddle: Donot
use corn oil as it can get sticky.

approximately 30 minutes. Turn the heat off
when the oil starts to shimmer.

surface with the oil.
6. Allow the griddle to coo!. Wipe the entire
surface of the griddle using a heavy cloth to
remove the oil.Thegriddle is now ready to
use.
The griddle surface is o combination of highly
polished Type 304 stainless steel and an
aluminum core plate for even heat distribution.
It is normal for it to darken with use as oils cook
onto the surface to provide a stick-resistant
base or "seasoning."
The griddle is thermostatically controlled and
can be set to maintain any temperature from
200°F to 450°F.
NOTE:Unlike the surface burners, which use
electric igniters, the griddle uses a Glo-Bar for
ignition. It takes approximately/45 seconds for
the Glo-Bar to reach temperature. Gas is only
supplied to the griddle once the Glo-Bar reaches
temperature.
