Griddle Cooking Chart
Preheat on Medium Lo and Medium flame settings.
•
Preheat using lower flame settings to start. It is easier
•
to increase heat than to quickly cool the griddle once it
is too hot.
Length of preheat time depends on flame setting and
•
food. Allowing 3 to 5 minutes is average.
Do not overheat the griddle; never preheat on High.
•
The Excalibur® coating will be affected.
After use, let it cool down before handling.

Care and Cleaning
Allow the griddle to cool before cleaning.
•
Never put a hot griddle in cool water.
•
Wash the griddle in hot water with dish detergent.
•
Rinse with hot water and dry.
NOTE:
If food residue is not removed after each use and
reheated, the nonstick performance will be affected.
Loosen hard-to-remove soils with a plastic mesh pad.
Do not use abrasive cleansers or scouring pads.
•
Remove white film by rubbing vinegar on the area.
•
Pour drippings away from you using the pour spout
•
corner of the griddle.
Remove metal markings left on burner grates with
•
BonAmi® or Soft Scrub®. Rinse and dry.
Do not wash in the dishwasher.
•
Tips for Using
Never preheat an empty griddle using a high flame
•
setting.
Do not cut food or use other sharp or metal utensils on
•
the griddle.
Nonstick food sprays are not recommended. They
•
burn at low temperatures, leaving a surface residue
that may affect the performance.
The griddle and handles get very hot during use.
•
Always use hot pads.
It is normal for the griddle to cook food, such as
•
pancakes, somewhat faster with consecutive batches.
