Important Cord Information
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to
fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a
qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.
A short, detachable power supply cord is provided to reduce the risk of becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. An
extension cord may be used if care is properly exercised in its use. If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the
extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance. The extension cord should be arranged so that it will
not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
Connect the power supply cord to a 120VAC electrical outlet only.
Assembly
1. Place unit upside down on an elevated surface for handle assembly. An elevated surface
is necessary to prevent placing pressure on one handle while installing the second
handle. Failure to use an elevated surface may result in damage to the first handle
installed.
2. Remove the screws from the mounting projections on the griddle.
3. Position the handles lining up the holes in the handles with the mounting projections on
the griddle.
Replace the screws and fasten securely (Fig. A).
NOTICE: Overtightening can result in stripping of screws or cracking of handles and legs.
When properly assembled, the griddle should sit level.
How to Use
NOTICE: This griddle is not intended to be used as a warming tray, hot plate, or for
heating any cookware. Using this appliance for purposes different from those specified
in the instruction manual may cause damage to the appliance and will void the warranty.
Before using for the first time, become familiar with the griddle features (Fig. B). Wash
griddle according to the “Care and Cleaning” instructions on page 3.
1. Place the assembled griddle on a dry, level, heat-resistant surface away from walls,
cabinets, and other objects.
NOTICE: To prevent possible heat damage to your countertop, place a heat-resistant
counter protector, such as aluminum foil, under the griddle. However, to keep the
griddle from moving on the counter, do not place any portion of the foil under the griddle’s feet.
2. Insert the Control Master
®
heat control probe into the griddle so the two electrical pins on the griddle are fully inserted into the
heat control. Connect the cord to a 120VAC electrical outlet only.
3. Turn the heat control to the desired temperature; see page 3 for the temperature-timetable. Preheat the griddle. The indicator light
turns off when the selected temperature is reached, in approximately 5 to 10 minutes.
Note: It is normal to hear a clicking sound while the griddle heats up and cools down. This is due to the expansion and contraction
of the metal.
4. Prepare the food for cooking. Because the griddle features a nonstick finish, food may be prepared with little or no oil.
NOTICE: Avoid using no-stick cooking sprays as they may cause the cooking surface to become tacky.
5. Place the food on the griddle and cook according to the temperature-timetable. Adjust the heat according to personal preference
and the particular food being cooked. The indicator light will turn on and off indicating the selected temperature is being
maintained.
Use nylon, plastic, wooden, or rubber utensils for best results. Do not use metal utensils as they may scratch the nonstick finish.
Do not cut foods on the cooking surface.
6. Turn the heat control OFF when cooking is complete. Unplug the heat control from the wall outlet, and then from the griddle.
Allow the griddle to cool completely before pouring grease from the grease trough and before cleaning.
