IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using an electrical appliance, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:
- READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
- Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs. Use oven mitts or potholders.
- To protect against electrical shock, do not immerse cord or plugs or temperature control probe in water or other liquid.
- This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
- Close supervision is necessary when any appliance
- is used by or near children.
- Turn unit Off and unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning the appliance.
- Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions, or has been damaged in any manner. Return appliance to the nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair or adjustment.
- The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the appliance manufacturer may cause injuries.
- Do not use outdoors.
- Do not let cord hang over the edge of table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.
- Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.
- Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance containing hot oil or other hot liquids.
- Always attach temperature control probe to appliance first, then plug cord in the wall outlet. To disconnect, turn temperature control probe to OFF, then remove plug from wall outlet.
- Do not use appliance for other than intended use. Use with wall receptacle only.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY
- CAUTION HOT SURFACES: This appliance generates heat and escaping steam during use. Proper precautions must be taken to prevent the risk of burns, fires or other injury to persons or damage to property.
- CAUTION: This appliance is hot during operation and retains heat for some time after turning OFF. Always use oven mitts when handling hot materials and allow metal parts to cool before cleaning. Do not place anything on top of the appliance while it is operating or while it is hot.
- All users of this appliance must read and understand this Instruction Manual before operating or cleaning this appliance.
- The cord to this appliance should be plugged into a 120 V AC electrical outlet only.
- If this appliance begins to malfunction during use, turn unit Off and immediately unplug the cord. Then remove the temperature control probe. Do not use or attempt to repair the malfunctioning appliance.
- Do not leave this appliance unattended during use.
NOTES ON THE PLUG
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To
reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet
only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the
plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not modify
the plug in any way.
NOTES ON THE CORD
- A short power-supply cord (or detachable power-supply cord) is to be provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
- Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use.
- If a long detachable power-supply cord or extension cord is used:
- The marked electrical rating of the cord or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance;
- If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a grounding-type3-wire cord; and
- The longer cord should be arranged so that it does not drape over the countertop or table top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
PLASTICIZER WARNING
CAUTION: To prevent Plasticizers from migrating to the finish of the counter top or table top or other furniture, place NON-PLASTIC coasters or place mats between the appliance and the finish of the counter top or table top. Failure to do so may cause the finish to darken; permanent blemishes may occur or stains can appear. ELECTRIC POWER If the electrical circuit is overloaded with other appliances, your appliance may not operate properly. It should be operated on a separate electrical circuit from other appliances.

BEFORE FIRST USE
-
Carefully unpack the Griddle and remove all packaging materials.
-
Place the ceramic nonstick Griddle on a clean, flat surface.
NOTE: Some surfaces are not designed to withstand the prolonged heat generated by this Griddle. We recommend placing a hot pad or trivet beneath the Griddle before use to avoid possible damage to the surface. Be sure the sides and back of the Griddle are at least 4” from any walls, cabinets, or objects on the counter or table. -
Before cooking on the Griddle for the first time, wipe the nonstick Griddle in mild dishwashing soap, rinse and allow to dry.
NOTE: THIS GRIDDLE IS NOT DISHWASHER SAFE. -
Insert drip tray into rails under the Griddle’s side, positioned directly under the grease drain.
-
Turn the temperature control knob on the probe to the OFF position and attach it securely in place.
-
Coat the nonstick surface with a high smoke point or butter before heating. If necessary, remove excess oil with paper towel.

FEATURES AND BENEFITS
Temperature Control Probe
- The temperature control probe is the most important part of your GreenPan ceramic nonstick electric Griddle. Damage to it can change its calibration and make the temperature settings inaccurate. Treat it with care.
- To select your desired temperature, rotate the dial to the correct setting.
- The indicator light on the temperature control probe will illuminate once the dial is rotated. The light will go out once your selected temperature is reached
- Allow the Griddle to cool before removing the temperature control probe.
- To clean the temperature control probe, wipe down with a soft, damp cloth. Make sure you dry it thoroughly before using again.
- NOTE: The temperature control probe is not submersible.
- CAUTION: Use the temperature control probe supplied with this Griddle only. The use of other temperature control probes may cause fire, electric shock, or injury.
OPERATION
-
Make sure the temperature control probe is in the OFF position.
-
Plug the temperature control probe securely into Griddle’s control probe socket.
-
Plug cord into any standard 120 V AC wall outlet.
IMPORTANT: ALWAYS PLUG THE CORD INTO THE GRIDDLE FIRST, THEN INTO WALL OUTLET. -
Preheat Griddle for approximately 10 minutes before cooking. To preheat, turn the temperature control to desired temperature. The indicator light on the temperature control probe will illuminate as soon as the dial
is rotated. The light will go out once the selected temperature has been reached. -
Add food and cook according to the recipe. Adjust the temperature control dial from LOW to HI as needed.
- NOTE: During cooking, the light will go on and off indicating that the Griddle is maintaining proper temperature.
- CAUTION: The surfaces of the Griddle are hot during use.
- CAUTION: Avoid low smoke point oils or spray oils. THEY CAN CAUSE A BUILD-UP ON THE CERAMIC NONSTICK COOKING PLATES AND CAN DAMAGE THE NONSTICK COATING.
-
When cooking bacon or foods containing large quantities of grease, it may be necessary to check the drip tray to ensure it doesn’t overflow. Remove drip tray; empty contents and wash if needed. See the Time/ Temperature Chart for basic suggested cooking information.
-
When cooking has been completed, turn the temperature control to the OFF position. The indicator light on the temperature control probe will turn off.
-
Unplug cord from wall outlet. Let the Griddle cool completely.
-
Remove the temperature control probe from Griddle. Follow the Care & Cleaning Instructions described in this Instruction Manual. TIPS & HINTS
- To avoid scratching the nonstick surface of the Griddle, do not stack objects on the grill or griddle cooking plates.
- Use medium to low heat for best cooking results. Very high temperatures can cause discoloration and shorten the life span of any nonstick surface. If higher temperatures are necessary, preheat on medium heat for a few minutes.
- For best results and to preserve the nonstick coating longer, use nylon, plastic, wooden or rubber utensils.
- Never cut food on the Griddle.
- Remove stubborn stains with a melamine sponge and mild dishwashing liquid; DO NOT USE STEEL WOOL or any other abrasive cleaner, as it will damage the nonstick surface of the cooking plates.
