BEFORE FIRST USE
Griddle Seasoning
CAUTION: This griddle plate is steel, but the surface is relatively soft and can be scored or dented by the
careless use of a spatula or scraper. Be careful not to dent, scratch, or gouge the plate surface. Do not
try to knock off loose food that may be on the spatula by tapping the corner edge of the spatula on the
griddle surface.
A new griddle surface must be seasoned to do a good cooking job. The metal surface of the griddle is porous.
Food tends to get trapped in these pores and stick; therefore, it is important to “season” or “fill up” these pores
with cooking oil before cooking. Seasoning gives the surface a slick, hard finish from which the food will release
easily.
To season, heat griddle top section at a low burner setting. Pour one ounce of cooking oil per square foot of
surface over the griddle top section. With an insulated cloth, spread the oil over the entire griddle surface to
create a thin film. Wipe off any excess oil with an insulated cloth.
Repeat this procedure 2 to 3 times until the griddle has a slick surface.
LIGHTING AND SHUTTING DOWN PILOTS
All adjustment procedures associated with pilot lighting must be performed by an authorized Vulcan-Hart
installation or service person.
