appliance may require additional ventilation, for example by opening a window, or increasing the power of 
the mechanical exhaust fan/range hood, if installed. 

 
USING THE ELECTRIC GRIDDLE 
WARNING 

The griddle element is hot after use. Allow sufficient time for griddle components cool before cleaning. 
The electric griddle elements are rated 230 volts AC   2x400 watts. 

The griddle plate must be leveled to ensure correct function of the griddle. 
After the cooktop installation, check the griddle adjustment by pouring a teaspoon of water on the centre of 
the griddle plate. Water should not roll, otherwise adjust the 4 screws under the plate. 
 

Use 

There are 2 control knobs for selecting the griddle zones( Fig.16-17), one for front heating zone selected and 
one for rear heating zone selected. 
You can select the whole griddle zone, or only the front or rear zone. 
Press and turn the knob anti-clockwise to the selected position (Fig.16-17) 
Pre-heat at the maximum temperature, ( 7 position) for 15 minutes, then place the food on the griddle and 
cook to the desired temperature. 

The activation of the griddle is shown by the indicator light.  
Each heating zone can be operated alone or in combination with the other one. 
 
If only one heating  zone is used, the griddle will be heated at different levels : in this way the heated part will be very hot 
for cooking and the other part will be anyhow warm to keep food at warming temperature. This will then allow to move 
food continuously over the griddle to benefit of different temperatures. 
 
Adjust the temperature by selecting  also different power levels. 
 
In order to obtain the same temperature all over the griddle operate the two heating zones at the same power level.. 

Seasoning the griddle 

Before using the griddle for the  first time, it must be seasoned. 
If the griddle has not been used for a period of time, it should be reseasoned. 
To season the gridlle: 
1. clean the griddle thoroughly with hot, soapy water to remove any protective coating. 
2. rinse with a mixture of 1 quart water and 1 cup white vinegar. Dry thoroughly. 
3. Pour 1 teaspoon vegetable oil into the center of the griddle. Do not use corn oil as it gets sticky. Rub the 
oil over the entire surface of the griddle using a heavy cloth. 
4. Turn the control knob to a maximum setting (7). Turn the heat off when the oil begins to smoke. Allow the 
griddle to cool. 
5. Repeat step 3. Be sure to cover the entire surface with the oil 
6. Repeat step 4. Allow the griddle to cool. Wipe the entire surface of the griddle using a heavy cloth. Apply a 
very thin layer of vegetable oil. The griddle is now ready to use.
