Cleaning and Maintenance
General
Clean griddle regularly. A clean appliance looks better, will last longer and will perform better.
Carbonised grease on surface or on griddle plate will hinder transfer of heat from cooking surface to
food. This will result in loss of cooking efficiency.
NOTE: Each Heavy Duty Griddle is supplied with a scraper tool and a pack of blades for cleaning
griddle surface.
- 1 Flat Blade (pack) - 1 Ribbed Blade (pack) and 2 handles for Ribbed Heavy Duty Griddle.
- 1 Flat Blade (pack) and I handle for Smooth Heavy Duty Griddle.
NEVER use the ribbed scraper blade on flat chrome surfaced griddle plate.
Replacement blades and handles can be purchased separately. Refer to 'Replacement
Parts List' at rear of manual.
DO NOT use water on griddle plate while this item is still hot as warping and cracking
may occur. Allow griddle plate to cool down before cleaning.
NOTE:
DO NOT use abrasive detergents, strong solvents or caustic detergents as they could
corrode or damage the griddle.
To prevent rust forming on griddle plate (Steel Plate), ensure that any detergent or
cleaning material has been completely removed after each cleaning. Appliance should be
switched ‘On’ briefly to ensure that griddle plate becomes dry. Spread oil or grease over
griddle surface to form a thin protective greasy film.

After Each Use
