Turn halfway through cooking time This product is for household use only. Wash all removable parts as instructed in CARE AND CLEANING section of this manual. ⷠWipe cooking surface with a damp cloth or sponge to remove any dust. ⷠSelect location where unit is to be used, leaving enough space between back of unit and wall to allow heat to flow without damage to cabinets and walls. Before using this appliance for the first time, clean griddle as outlined in CARE AND CLEANING. The variable temperature control allows you to cook at a specific heat setting, 200°F ­ 400°F (95°C - 200°C). As the griddle is heating, the preheat indicator light turns on and it will remain ON until the set temperature has been reached. Note: Preheat indicator light will cycle on and off, as needed, to maintain the set temperature. The preheat time will vary, depending on the heat setting you have selected. Be sure to always use either silicone, plastic or wooden utensils so as not to scratch the nonstick surface. Never use metal tongs, forks or knives as these can damage the coating on the griddle plate. Please note: To be sure your food is fully cooked the USDA recommends the following guidelines. Use a meat thermometer to test for doneness by inserting the meat thermometer into the center of the food being cooked and make sure the thermometer is not touching the bone or griddle plate. ⷠTo avoid drying out meat and fish, do not pierce with a utensil. ⷠBetter cooking results will be achieved with boneless cuts of meat, chicken and fish. ⷠCut edge of meat in several places to prevent curling. ⷠWhen cooking fish or chicken breast fillets, tuck extremely thin parts under to prevent overcooking. When cooking larger portions, distribute evenly and allow inch of space between foods to promote uniform cooking. ⷠSome foods such as eggs and pancakes cook better if the nonstick surface is conditioned with vegetable shortening before preheating. ⷠIf food is undercooked when removed from griddle, simply return to griddle for additional cooking time. [. . . ] Also, please DO NOT mail product back to the manufacturer, nor bring it to a service center. You may also want to consult the website listed on the cover of this manual.
