MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
NOTE: Disconnect line cord from the power supply or turn
the power o at the circuit breaker before cleaning of
servicing for your protection against electric shock.
Exterior Cleaning
Establish a regular cleaning schedule. Any spills should be
wiped o immediately.
1. Wipe exposed, cleanable surface when cool with a mild
detergent and hot water. Stubborn residue spots may be
removed with a lightweight non-metallic scouring pad.
Dry thoroughly with a clean cloth.
2. Stainless steel should be cleaned using a mild detergent,
a soft scouring pad and hot water. If it necessary to use a
non-metallic scouring pad, always rub in the direction of
the grain in the metal to prevent scratching. Use a water
based stainless steel cleaner (Dracket Twinkle), if you
want a high shine. Never use steel wool on Stainless steel.
3. The control panel surface is easily cleaned with hot water,
soap and a soft cloth. Do not use hard abrasives, solvent
type materials or metallic scouring pads since these will
scratch or cloud the surface.
4 Never spay the perforated areas or control panel with
steam or water, this will allow moisture into the control
cavity which could damage electrical components.
Cleaning Of Top Surface Heating Elements
Surface elements may be raised to permit removal of the
spillover burner bowl located under the surface elements.
Spillover burner bowls may be cleaned, wiped dry and
replaced. The Cooking top may be wiped with a damp cloth
using a mild detergent and warm water. Rinse with clear,
warm water and dry thoroughly.
Griddle Cleaning.
To produce evenly cooked, perfectly browned griddle
products, keep the griddle free from carbonized grease.
Carbonized grease on the surface hinders the transfer of
heat from the griddle surface to the food product. This
results in uneven browning and loss of cooking eciency
and worst of all, carbonized grease tends to cling to griddle
foods, giving them a highly unsatisfactory and unappetizing
appearance. To keep the griddle clean and operating at peak
performance, follow these simple instructions.
1. After each use clean the griddle thoroughly with a grill
scraper or spatula. Wipe o any excess debris left from
the cooking process.
2. Once a day clean the griddle surface with a grill brick
and grill pad. Remove the grease container and clean
thoroughly, in the same manner as any ordinary cooking
utensil.
3. Once a week clean the griddle surface thoroughly. If
necessary, use a grill stone or grill pad over the griddle
surface. Rub with the grain of the metal while still warm.
A detergent may be used on the plate surface to help
clean it, but care must be taken to be sure it is thoroughly
removed. After removal of the detergent, the surface
of the plate should be covered with a thin lm of oil to
prevent rusting. To remove discoloration, use a non-
abrasive cleaner. Before re-using the griddle must be
re-seasoned. Keep the griddle drain tube to the grease
container clear at all times.
Empty grease trough below the griddle frequently. The front
grease trough should be washed using a hot, mild detergent
or soap solution. Rinse with clear, warm water and dry
thoroughly.
CAUTION: This griddle plate is steel, but the surface is
relatively soft and can be scored or dented by careless use of
a spatula. Be careful not to dent, scratch, or gorge the plate
surface. This will cause food to stick in those areas. Also, note,
since this is a steel griddle if a light coat of oil is not always
present, rust will develop on exposed area.
