•  Stubborn dirt may be removed by rubbing the surface with a nylon pad and cooking oil. If necessary, 
flush the surface of a warm 200
° griddle with warm clear water, then dry thoroughly. 
 
•  Special griddle cleaners are available commercially which may be used to remove heavy build-up. 
Follow the manufacturer's instructions exactly. Rinse the griddle thoroughly with a vinegar and water 
solution after using the cleaner, rinse with clear water, dry, and re-season with oil before the next use. 
You may also purchase a ‘griddle stone’ to help clean the griddle surface.  You can contact your 
distributor or sales agent for more information. 
 
•  Do not use soapy water to clean the griddle. If this is done, the griddle will require re-seasoning. If "hot 
spots" have caused residue to burn into the griddle surface, and it cannot be removed by the above 
methods, polish the griddle with a fine grain griddle stone, which can be purchased from most 
restaurant suppliers. Do this with extreme caution and only when absolutely necessary. 
 
•  Never flood a hot griddle with cold water! This will cause the griddle plate to warp and possibly 
crack. Warped and/or cracked griddles are not covered under your warranty! 
 
Clean-Up—Charbroiler 
 
Once your charbroiler has cooled, always remove the drip pan located below it by pulling the pan out 
toward you slowly.  Be careful to avoid burns and grease spillage when handling the pan.  Wash the pan 
in hot soapy water, rinse thoroughly and dry.  Clean the drip pan after each use to avoid accumulation of 
grease that will become a fire hazard, as the drip pan is directly under the burner. 
 
 
The charbroiler grate on your unit is coated chrome-plated that may be effectively cleaned with hot 
soapy water or use a standard grate brush. 
 
 
In the event that heavy soiling occurs, a commercial oven cleaner may be used on this part. Be sure to 
follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully, and to avoid the cleaner coming in contact with the 
painted surfaces of your unit. The grate may be removed for cleaning.

Operation-Griddle &Charbroil 
To light the griddle or charbroiler, push, then turn the appropriate control knob to the desired 
position.(Note:  On a 12-inch griddle or charbroiler, there is one burner and one control knob.  On a 24-inch 
griddle or char broiler, there are two burners and two control knobs.  This control knob is both a gas valve 
and an electric switch. When the knob is in the "IGN" position and after the oven igniter glows a bright red, 
gas is permitted to flow to the burner.  The oven burner should burn blue with "cones" approximately 7/16 
inch high as shown.  There is no pilot burner. The igniter lights the burner directly. Push, then turn the 
control knob to adjust the flame to the desired setting. Air shutter adjustment may be required. See page 17. 
 
Always pre-heat the griddle for approximately ten (10), minutes prior to use. 
 
Always use liquid cooking oil, shortening spray, or butter for eggs, pancakes, french toast, meats and 
sandwiches to reduce sticking. 
 
Remove food particles from the griddle surface during cooking with a metal spatula to make cleanup 
easier and to avoid including those particles in other foods being cooked. Be careful not to gouge the 
griddle surface and never "bang" the spatula on the griddle plate. 
 
Do not overheat the griddle. Turn the griddle off when not in use and lower the heat setting between 
cooking loads. 
 
After use and cleaning, the griddle should be wiped with a light film of salt-free peanut oil to protect the 
finish from rust and corrosion.
