BEFORE FIRST USE
Griddle Tops: Before using your Vulcan griddle, the protective coating that was applied at the factory
must be completely removed with a commercial degreaser. After a thorough cleaning, apply a high
temperature, salt-free frying oil and you are ready to use your Vulcan griddle.
The griddle requires no "breaking-in" or "seasoning."

Convection Oven: The Vulcan Snorkle
®
Oven does everything a regular oven can do, but
with less energy consumption. The oven pre-heats faster, and baking time, temperature settings, and
shrinkage are reduced.
In general, reduce temperature 25°F (10°C) from conventional recipes.
• Bakery Products: Reduce temperature 25°F. Reduce time by 25% to 33%.
• Casserole Cookery: Reduce temperature about 25°F, and time by 25% to 50%.
• Meat Roasting: Reduce temperature to 275-300°F (135-149°C). Use meat thermometer.
Cooking time may be reduced up to 50%.
Use fan for preheating and baking.
Place open-face pies with thin filling mixture in preheated oven 2 to 3 minutes before turning on fan
switch.
Check product at half the time of the regular recipe.
Level pans bake more evenly; warped pans will give uneven baking results.
