WOLF SEALED BURNER RANGETOP OPERATION
GRIDDLE OPERATION
I
MPORTANT NOTE:
T
he stainless steel cover
must be removed prior to operation of the
griddle.
Turn on the ventilation hood five minutes
prior to using the griddle.
To heat the griddle, push in the control
knob and turn counterclockwise to the
desired temperature. It is normal to hear a
clicking sound. This is the electronic
ignition lighting the burner. When the
burner is lit, the thermostat will control the
temperature.
Preheat for approximately 10 minutes.
When the griddle is preheated, the griddle
indicator light will go out. The light will
cycle on and off as the thermostat requires
more heat to maintain the set temperature.
This will allow heat to be evenly distributed
and the griddle to maintain the set
temperature.
The double griddle has two burners with
separate control knobs that act indepen-
dently of each other. If only one griddle is
being used, there will be some heat transfer
to the inactive griddle.
To turn the griddle off, turn the control knob
clockwise to the OFF position.
INFRARED GRIDDLE
The steel griddle plate operates at 18,000
Btu/hr (5.3 kW). It is thermostatically
c
ontrolled, which means once the set tempera-
ture is reached, the heat cycles to hold that
temperature. To prevent food from sticking and
t
o protect the surface from moisture, it is
necessary to season the griddle prior to use.
This seasoning process as well as general use
will change the appearance of the griddle.
SEASON THE GRIDDLE
Clean the surface with hot water and a mild
detergent. Rinse and dry.
Turn on the ventilation hood five minutes
prior to using the griddle.
The griddle needs to go through a ”burn
in” period. Turn the griddle on at 350˚F
(175˚C) for 30 minutes to clean oils from the
bottom of the griddle. After 30 minutes,
turn the griddle off and allow it to cool.
To season, pour 1 teaspoon (5 ml) of
peanut or vegetable oil per 11" (279) griddle
in the center; spread evenly with a paper
towel, avoiding the corners. Be careful not
to apply too much oil. Excess oil will leave
a gummy residue that will have to be
removed.
Push and turn the contr
ol knob to 350˚F
(175˚C). Heat until you see the first signs of
smoke. Turn the griddle OFF. When the
griddle has cooled and is only slightly
warm, wipe off any excess oil. Let the
griddle cool completely
.
Repeat with another teaspoon of oil. The
brown appearance will darken with use.
Be par
ticularly cautious when cooking
food high in fat. It can become hot
enough to ignite.
