The flat cooking surface units feature the Rapid Recovery™ plate which is a composite
material with a stainless steel surface. The grooved cooking surface units have plates
composed of standard, carbon steel. Both cooking surfaces can be scored or dented by
careless use of a spatula or scraper. Be careful not to dent, scratch, or gouge the plate
surface. Do not try to knock off loose food that may be on the spatula by t apping the
corner or the edge of the spatula on the griddle surface. Do not use hardened steel
spatulas. Use mild steel spatulas with rounded corners.
CARE AND CLEANING
The griddle and its parts are hot. Use care when operating, cleaning
or servicing the griddle.
Clean the electric griddle top regularly. A clean griddle always looks better, lasts longer
and performs better. To produce evenly cooked, perfectly browned griddle products keep
the griddle plate clean and free of carbonized grease. Carbon ized grease on the surface
hinders the transfer of heat from the griddle surface to the food, resulting in spotty
browning and loss of cooking efficiency. Carbonized grease tends to cling to griddle
foods, giving them a highly unsatisfactory and unappetizi ng appearance.
To keep the griddle clean and operating at peak efficiency, follow these procedures:
AFTER EACH USE
Clean the electric griddle top with a griddle scraper during the work shift. Keep the
griddle scraper head flat to avoid scratching or gou ging the plate. Use a cooking release
agent to prevent product from sticking to the griddle top cooking surface.
ONCE PER DAY
Thoroughly clean all stainless steel exterior panels and surfaces. Clean the cooking
surface with a non-metallic scouring pad (Scotch-Brite™).
