CLEANING YOUR GRIDDLE
1. Clean griddle thoroughly after each use. Do not immerse griddle in cold water
when it is hot. Let griddle cool completely, then remove temperature control and
grease cup. Dispose of grease. Immerse griddle and grease cup in warm
soapy water. Wipe temperature control with a damp cloth if necessary. Rinse
and dry thoroughly.
2. Clean the non-stick surface of the griddle with warm soapy water, using a non-
metal cleansing pad such as Scrunge
®
scrubber sponge Dobie
®
or Scotch-Brite
Cookware Scrub’n Sponge
®
.
A dishcloth or sponge may give the non-stick
surface a clean look, but will not remove the tiny food particles that can settle in
the finish. Do not use metal scouring pads or harsh scouring powders.
3. Clean the non-coated aluminum underside of the griddle with warm soapy water
and a soap-filled steel wool scouring pad. Remove stains with household
cleanser. Remove burned-on grease with a special cleanser for appliances,
such as Wantz™Frypan and Grill Cleaner, Afta™Fry Pan Cleaner, Whink™Metal
Cleaner or SS-T
®
Metal Cleaner.
4. After washing, rinse griddle thoroughly with warm water and dry completely,
including temperature control socket area. Replace grease cup.
5. Your griddle and grease cup (with temperature control removed) may be
cleaned in an automatic dishwasher. Clean grease cup in top rack only. The
under side of griddle will discolor due to the mineral in water and the high heat
of drying cycle. This will not affect the cooking ability of griddle. Each time
griddle is cleaned in a dishwasher; the non-stick surface should be
reconditioned with cooking oil to ensure stick-free cooking. Replace grease cup.
SPECIAL CARE:
1. A spotted white film may form on the non-stick surface. This is a buildup of
minerals from foods or water and is not a defect in the surface. To remove,
soak a soft cloth in lemon juice or vinegar and rub on the cool surface. Wash
the non-stick surface thoroughly, rinse and dry. Recondition the non-stick
surface with cooking oil.
2. The non-stick surface may also become stained from improper cleaning or
overheating. To remove stains, clean the non-stick surface by the following
method. Combine 1 cup of water and 1 tablespoon of ONE of the following
cleaners: Dip-It® coffee pot destainer, automatic dishwasher detergent or dry
oxygen bleach crystals. USE ONLY ONE OF THE ABOVE CLEANERS; DO
NOT COMBINE. Make sure grease cup is in place. Preheat griddle to 225°F.
Wearing rubber gloves, dip sponge into water mixture and wipe over surface.
Continue cleaning procedure until mixture is gone. Turn griddle to OFF and
allow to cool. Remove temperature control and grease cup. Scour the non-stick
surface of the griddle with warm soapy water and a non-metal scouring pad.
Rinse thoroughly and dry. Wash grease cup in warm soapy water and dry.
Slide grease cup back into griddle. Recondition the non-stick surface with
cooking oil before using.
