Cleaning and Maintenance

General 

Clean the griddle regularly.  A clean appliance looks better, will last longer and will perform better.   

Carbonised grease on the surface or on the griddle plate will hinder the transfer of heat from the 

cooking surface to the food.  This will result in loss of cooking efficiency. 

NOTE:  Each Heavy Duty Griddle is supplied with a scraper tool and a pack of blades for cleaning 

the griddle surface. 

-   1 Flat Blade (pack) - 1 Ribbed Blade (pack) and 2 handles for Ribbed Heavy Duty Griddle. 

-  1 Flat Blade (pack) and I handle for Smooth Heavy Duty Griddle. 

NEVER use the ribbed scraper blade on the flat chrome surfaced griddle plate. 

Replacement blades and handles can be purchased separately.  Refer to the 'Replacement 

Parts List' at the rear of the manual. 

DO NOT use water on the griddle plate while this item is still hot as warping and 

cracking may occur.  Allow the griddle plate to cool down before cleaning. 

NOTE: 

 DO NOT use abrasive detergents, strong solvents or caustic detergents as they could  

corrode or damage the range. 

 In order to prevent the forming of rust on the griddle plate (Steel Plate), ensure that any 

detergent or cleaning material has been completely removed after each cleaning.  The  

appliance should be switched on briefly to ensure the griddle plate becomes dry.  Oil or 

grease should be spread over the griddle surface in order to form a thin protective greasy 

film.

To keep your griddle clean and operating at peak efficiency, follow the procedures shown below:- 

After Each Use 

1. 

Clean the griddle with the scraper tool to remove any food debris. 

2. 

Always ensure that the scraper tool blades are changed regularly to ensure that the scraper tool 

works efficiently and prevents damage to the griddle plate surface.
