Model: GG301S

Model: GG302S

To turn off griddle
Turn the control knob to the “OFF” position.

Seasoning
Seasoning is baking oil into the metal to make a sticky-resistant surface and protect against oxidation.
There is a layer of soy oil on the appliance to protect against rust during transport. It can be cleaned off with warm soapy water when you begin your initial seasoning.

The choice of oil
The choice of some oils is important for seasoning.
Using Flaxseed oil for your initial seasoning as it creates a very durable bond. Any of the following oil can be used:

• Flax Seed Oil
• Extra Virgin Olive Oil
• Vegetable Oil
• Soy Oil

The purpose behind your initial seasoning is to create a bond with the griddle top by coating your griddle with oil and heat the oil above its smoke point to polymerize the oil. You will make a black, stick-resistant surface easy to clean.

Seasoning the griddle

1. Put a small amount of chosen oil to the surface of the griddle top and spread it around with a cloth or paper towel (use tongs or metal spatulas to hold the cloth or paper towel).
2. Make it medium-high heat.
3. It is good to heat the oil until it reaches its “smoke-point” and let it continue to discolor.
4. To make a good black surface, make sure to repeat steps 1 through 3 a few times after it cools down.

Proper installation of burner and switch valve’s nozzle:
The nozzle of the switch valve must be inside the bumper.

WARNING

The nozzle of the switch valve must be connected to the burner and must not be exposed to air.

Wrong installation:
The nozzle of the switch valve does not connect to the burner.

WARNING

WARNING: If “growing” bubbles appear, do not use or move the gas cylinder. Contact an gas supplier or your fire department!
If a leak is detected, close the pressure regulator lever (b) immediately and tighten the loose connection or replace the leaking part.
Repeat the leak test.
WARNING

DANGER: Never search for gas leaks using an open flame. Before checking for leaks, make sure that no sparks or open flames can form in the vicinity.Sparks or flames can cause an explosion which can lead to serious or even fatal injuries or material damage. If a leak is detected, close the pressure regulator lever (b) immediately and tighten the loose connection or replace the leaking part. Repeat the leak test.

The Storage of Griddle

DANGER
Never put the griddle in storage or travel mode at once after use when it is too hot to touch and make sure it cools down. Not following the direction could result in a fire resulting in property damage, personal injury, or death.

• For portable/tabletop griddles, disconnect from the recreational vehicles’ low-pressure LP gas supply system via quick-disconnect fitting (following applicable safety steps).
• Turn it off before storing the portable griddle indoors. Disconnect it from the low-pressure gas system, and the unit itself is at room temperature.

Clean the Burner

Follow these instructions to clean the burner.

1. Shut gas “OFF” at the control knob.
2. Ensure the entire griddle is cooled down.
3. Remove griddle plate from the assembly.
4. Use a wire brush to clean the entire outer surface of the burner to remove food residue and dirt.
5. Clean any blocked ports with a stiff wire such as an open paper clip.
6. Wear eye protection and use an air hose to force air into the burner tube and out the burner ports.
   Ensure each port to make sure air is flowing out each respective nozzle.

Safety of Food

The safety of food is a key part of enjoying outdoor cooking. For keeping food safe from harmful bacteria, read these four basic steps:

1. Clean: Use HOT SOAPY water to wash hands, utensils, and surfaces before and after contacting raw meat and poultry.
2. Separate: To avoid cross-contamination, separate raw meats and poultry from ready-to-eat foods. Use a clean platter and utensils when removing cooked foods.
3. Cook: Make sure meat and poultry are cooked thoroughly to kill bacteria. You can use a thermometer to test proper internal food temperatures.
