Operation
Griddle/Simmer Plate Operation
• 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.
• Use liquid cooking oil or butter for eggs, pancakes, French toast, fish and sandwiches to prevent sticking.
• Routinely scrape loose food particles with a heat resistant plastic or wooden spatula during cooking to make the cleanup
easier and to avoid the particles mixing with the food.
• To turn the griddle off, turn the thermostat knob clockwise to the “OFF” position.
• ALWAYS turn to the“OFF” position when not in use and lower the heat between cooking loads.
Note: On griddle model ranges, the griddle/simmer plate will
not function during the self-clean cycle.

Griddle/Simmer Plate Clean Up & Care
• AFTER the griddle has cooled, simply wipe down the surface with a clean cloth or paper towel. The chrome griddle plate
can then be removed and taken to the sink for easy cleanup
• Non-stick cooking spray is not recommended as it contains a high water content that has a tendency to burn quickly.
• Corn oil is not recommended as it has a high sugar level. It will caramelize and burn on the surface making it very difficult
to remove.
• After using the griddle, always remove the grease trough located in the front using the StayCool
tm
handle. Simply pull the
trough towards you and lift out. The trough or tray trap needs to be cleaned after each use. A fire hazard may occur if
grease is accumulated in the trough.
• Important: Never flood a hot griddle with cold water. This thermal shock promotes griddle warping and can cause the
griddle to crack if continued over a period of time.
CAUTION
: Chrome griddle plate is Not Dishwasher Safe. Optional Nonstick griddle/grill accessory plate is available for
purchase
The optional 15,000 BTU griddle is constructed of machined steel with a chrome finish and is uniquely designed to offer
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 off as needed to indicate
the thermostat is maintaining the selected temperature.
Cleaning the Griddle before the First Use
• Remove plastic film
• Wash griddle with warm, soapy water. Rinse off and dry
thoroughly. The griddle is now ready to be used.
