Care and Cleaning
Before initial use and after each subsequent use, wash griddle in warm sudsy water, rinse, and dry. Do not immerse
Control Master
heat control in water or let it come in contact with any liquid.
For best results use nylon, plastic, wooden, or rubber utensils. Do not use metal utensils as they may scratch the
nonstick surface. Do not cut foods on the cooking surface.
After each use, clean the nonstick surface with a non-metal cleaning pad, such as Scotch-Brite* Multi-Purpose Scrub
Sponge* or Scotch-Brite*
Dobie** Cleaning Pad. Firm pressure can be applied, if necessary. Do not use steel wool
or abrasive kitchen cleaners.
In time, the nonstick finish may darken over the heating element. To remove this discoloration, use a commercial
cleaner designed for cleaning surfaces, such as dip-it
destainer. These cleaners are available at most grocery and
hardware stores. Slide drip tray into place. Preheat griddle to 225°. Combine 1 cup of hot water and 1 tablespoon of
commercial cleaner. Wearing rubber gloves, dip cleaning pad into cleaning solution and rub over cooking surface.
Continue cleaning until solution is gone. Turn griddle off and allow to cool. Wash griddle in hot, soapy water
and dry.
After treating the griddle with a commercial cleaner, it is recommended that the cooking surface be wiped lightly
with a cooking oil before using.
Some discoloration may occur inside the griddle drip tray. This is normal. The amount of discoloration will vary
depending on the foods cooked and the temperature setting used. This discoloration is only visible from the inside
of the drip tray and will not affect the performance of the griddle.
The cool touch base on the griddle is easy to keep attractive and looking new. Simply wipe away spills and drips
as they occur. Any food residue remaining can be removed with warm, sudsy water and a cleaning pad. Rinse and
wipe dry.
IMPORTANT: To ensure continued accuracy of the Control Master
heat control, avoid rough handling in use and
storage.
