USING THE GRIDDLE
COOKING ON THE GRIDDLE
When it comes to using the griddle, there are a few things to keep in mind:
EN
• As time goes on and griddle use increases, discoloration of the griddle plate may happen and is
normal.
• When emptying the grease tray, be sure to pour the grease into a proper container for grease
disposal, not down the drain. Do not scrape with metal utensils.
It will take some practice to get to know how your griddle performs with certain foods. The table
below gives a few recommendations on temperatures.

USING THE OVEN

OVEN FEATURES

The oven in the 30" range, the 36" range, and the main oven of the 48" range have exactly the same
features and capabilities. The 48" range's companion oven does not have a meat probe, and does not
include the True Convection and Self Clean modes. The companion oven can be used in any of its
modes regardless of the main oven mode, even when the main oven is self-cleaning. Rack suggestions
are shown on the following pages.
TIPS AND TRICKS ON HOW TO USE YOUR OVEN
As you begin to use your Hestan Range, it is important to take the time to become familiar with the
new settings and the performance of this appliance. Previous ranges may have performed differently
than your Hestan – allow some time to adjust.
HOW TO GET THE BEST RESULTS WHEN COOKING IN THE OVEN
• Many recipes give their own rack suggestions, it is best to follow what is suggested by the recipe.
• After a few times of using your new range, you will become more comfortable with rack
placements and temperature settings.
• Avoid opening the oven door while cooking. This will prevent heat from escaping and provide
the best results.
• Make sure to preheat the oven to the cooking temperature given in the recipe.
