LP GAS AND CYLINDER INFORMATION

Your new gas griddle operates on LP (Liquified Petroleum) Gas. It is odorless colorless and non-toxic when produced.
You can smell LP gas as it has been given an odor similar to rotten eggs for your safety.

The LP cylinder used with your griddle must have two features:

1. An OPD (Overfill Protection Device) that prevents accidental gas leaks caused by overfilling of the cylinder. Each cylinder contains a float that closes the input value when the cylinder is 80% full. This allows room or the propane gas to expand in hot temperatures. A triangular hand wheel distinguishes this type of cylinder.

2. An QCC1 Type1 Quick Connect Valve that provides fast cylinder hook-ups and requires only to be tightened by hand.

3. Triangular Hand Wheel

TRANSPORTATION AND STORAGE

1. The LP cylinder must include a collar to protect the gas supply valve.

2. Do not store a spare LP cylinder under or near the griddle.

3. Never fill the LP cylinder beyond 80% capacity.

4. If the warnings 2 and 3 above are not heeded exactly, a fire causing death or serious injury may occur.

5. Always transport in an upright position.

6. Do not smoke when transporting your LP cylinder.

7. Place a dust cap on the cylinder gas valve outlet whenever the cylinder is not in use Use only the type of dust cap that is provided with the cylinder valve when purchased. Other types of cap or plugs may result in leakage of propane.

BURNER FLAMES

Always check the burner flame patterns after lighting. A good flame should be primarily blue with a yellow tip and have a minimal amount of flicker. Some yellow tips are OK if they are smaller than 2.5 cm (1″). New burners sometimes have oil residue, which will cause yellow flame when burning off. Variations in gas supply, altitude, weather, and other factors can all impact burner performance. Older griddles can also show more yellow flame due to food deposit, oil, and fat buildup.

Good                       Bad

1. Yellow
2. Light Blue
3. Blue

PREHEATING

It is necessary to preheat the griddle before cooking, depending on the type of food and the cooking temperature. Preheat the gas griddle on MEDIUM/HIGH for 5 to 10 minutes. Reduce heat as appropriate for what you are grilling. Next, brush or spray the cooking griddle with olive or vegetable oil to prevent food from sticking.

GRIDDLE HARD COVER

The griddle hard cover is designed to protect the griddle top from elements when the griddle is not in use.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Your new griddle has been designed and manufactured to high quality standards It will provide you with many years of fun grilling time, however, it requires a minimal amount of maintenance.
Clean griddle often, preferably after each cookout. If a bristle brush is used to clean any of the griddle cooking surfaces, ensure no loose bristles remain on cooking surfaces prior to grilling.

WARNING

1. Do not clean any part of your griddle in a self-cleaning oven.
2. Do not use oven cleaners, abrasive kitchen cleaners, cleaners that contain citrus products, or mineral spirits.
3. Clean your griddle regularly to prevent grease buildup, grease fires or excessive Flare-ups.
