quantities as explained above.

3. Remove griddle plate. With one person at either side of the griddle, gently lift griddle straight up.
DO NOT pull griddle forward until the third person has checked to ensure that the capillary bulb(s)
are freed from the underside of the griddle plate. If bulb(s) are still attached to the griddle, pull
capillary bulb(s) wire gently through the "V" shield(s) until the bulb(s) are free. Rest the griddle plate
in a secure place.
