ELECTRIC POWER
If the electrical circuit is overloaded with other appliances, your appliance
may not operate properly. It should be operated on a separate electrical
circuit from other appliances.

countertop or tabletop or other furniture, place NON-PLASTIC coasters or
placemats between the appliance and the finish of the countertop or
tabletop.
Failure to do so may cause the finish to darken, permanent blemish-
es may occur or stains can appear.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Before using for the first time, clean the Griddle as outlined in the
CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS (see USER MAINTENANCE
INSTRUCTIONS).
2. Insert Drip Tray into rails under Griddle.
3. Turn Temperature Control Probe to OFF. Insert Probe firmly into
Probe Receptacle, pushing until it is securely in place. Plug into
120V AC outlet.
4. To Preheat: Rotate the Temperature Control Probe so that the
desired temperature is aligned with the Power Light. The Power
Light will illuminate and remain on until the unit has reached the set
temperature. The Power Light goes off when the unit has finished
preheating. The Light will cycle on and off during use, indicating that
the proper temperature is being maintained.
NOTE: Some foods such as eggs and pancakes cook better if the non-
stick surface is conditioned with vegetable shortening before pre-
heating. If necessary, remove excess oil with paper towel.
5. Carefully place the items to be cooked on the Griddle. Allow the food
to cook, turning halfway through cooking time if needed. Refer to the
SUGGESTED COOKING CHART for suggested cooking tempera-
tures and times. DO NOT LEAVE APPLIANCE UNATTENDED DUR-
ING USE!
6. When finished cooking, turn the Temperature Control Probe to OFF
and unplug from the outlet.
7. Allow the Griddle to cool completely before cleaning.
CAUTION: Because some countertop finishes are more affected by
heat than others, use care not to place Griddle on surfaces
where heat may cause a problem.
CAUTION: Griddle surfaces are hot during use.

USER MAINTENANCE
INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance requires little maintenance. It contains no user serviceable
parts. Do not try to repair it yourself. Any servicing requiring disassembly
must be performed by a qualified appliance repair technician.
CARE & CLEANING
NOTE: No parts should be placed in an automatic dishwasher.
1. Unplug and allow Griddle to cool completely before cleaning or mov-
ing.
2. Remove Temperature Control Probe from Probe Receptacle. DO
NOT IMMERSE PROBE, CORD OR PLUG IN WATER OR OTHER
LIQUID. Wipe Temperature Control Probe with a damp cloth and dry
thoroughly.
3. When cool, remove Drip Tray and empty contents. Be sure the liquid
has cooled before removing Drip Tray. Wash Griddle and Drip Tray
in soapy water; rinse and dry thoroughly.
NOTE: A plastic pad with mild abrasive cleaner may be used to clean
underside of Griddle (see HINTS FOR CARE & USE OF NON-
STICK GRIDDLE SURFACE below).
CAUTION: Temperature Control Probe and Probe Receptacle must
always be completely dry before use.
CARE & USE OF NON-STICK
GRIDDLE SURFACE
• To avoid scratching the non-stick surface, do not stack objects on
the Griddle.
• Use medium to low heat for best cooking results. Very high tempera-
tures can cause discoloration and shorten the life span of any non-
stick surface. If higher temperatures are necessary, preheat on
medium for a few minutes.
• Use only nylon, plastic, or wooden utensils with care to avoid
scratching the non-stick surface. Never cut food on the Griddle.
• Remove stubborn stains with a plastic scouring pad and mild dish
washing liquid; DO NOT USE STEEL WOOL.
