OPERATION (Continued)
Inspect the unit for cleanliness before use. Clean as necessary: See
Cleaning Instructions, page 11.
Be sure the pilot light is lit before operation. See Lighting the Pilot
Light, page 8.
The burner control knobs must be turned by hand only. Never use
tools to turn the control knob.
The control used in this gas griddle provides a continuous range of
settings from OFF to ON.
The right knob controls the front burner
The left knob controls the rear burner
Light the burner by turning the control knob to the ON position until fire
forms completely around the inner and outer sections of the burner.
Set the control knob to the desired position. The setting can be
readjusted at any time.
Cooking Recommendations:
Save energy by turning the temperature control knob OFF any time the
griddle is not in use. Gas burners provide full heat instantly, making it
unnecessary to leave the unit on during intermittent use.

hot to the touch and may
cause burns.
SEASON THE GRIDDLE SURFACE
As manufactured, the steel surface of your griddle has
microscopic pores. It is important to fill these pores with oil in
order to provide a hard, non-stick cooking surface.
a. Preheat the griddle surface to 375ºF (191ºC).
b. Spread a light film of cooking oil over the entire griddle surface
c. Allow the oil film to cook in for approximately 2 minutes, or until
it smokes.
d. Wipe the griddle surface with a clean damp cloth until all oil is
removed.
e. For new griddles, repeat this procedure 2-3 times until the
griddle has a slick, clean surface.
