off the nonstick coating. Do not use a knife to cut the food on the cooking surfaces.

If there is any food residue remaining on the surface, it should be removed after each use. To do so, scrub gently with a fine cleansing pad such as nylon mesh or other ordinary cleansing pad. DO NOT USE STEEL WOOL OR ABRASIVE KITCHEN CLEANERS.

In time, the nonstick finish may darken over the healing element. This is normal and will not seriously alter the release properties of the surface. To remove this discoloration, use a commercial cleaner designed for cleaning nonstick surfaces. These cleaners are available at most grocer y and hardware stores. For best results, follow the manufacturers instructions, being careful that any cleaning solution coming in contact with the exterior of the appliance is wiped off. After treating the griddle with a commercial cleaner, it is recommended that the cooking surface be wiped lightly with a cooking oil before using.

The outside finish of the griddle is easy to keep attractive and looking new. Simply wipe away spills and drips as they occur. If food should happen to burn on, it is easily removed with warm, sudsy water and a dish cloth. Any food residue remaining can be whisked away with a gentle stroke of a nylon mesh pad. Rinse and wipe dry.

IMPORTANT: Any maintenance required for this product other than normal household care and cleaning, should be performed by our Factory.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION: For safety's sake, when using non-stick cookware or electric appliance with

nonstick coatings, keep your pet birds out of the room. Birds have respiratory systems that are sensitive to many kinds of fumes, including fumes from overheated nonstick cookware. NOTE: A short power supply cord (or cord set) has been provided to reduce the hazards resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Longer cord sets or extension cords may be used if care is properly exercised in their use. If a long cord set or extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance. The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter top or table top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over accidentally.

ASSEMBLY

Please read these instructions carefully. Refer to Figure A.

1. Place unit securely on table or counter.

2. Position the splash guard on the cooking surface with the long side parallel to the

back of the griddle, and the splash guard arms facing forward. The back of the splash guard should sit on the back of the cooking surface.

3. Position the two metal tabs of the splash guard into the slots in the thumbscrews on

each side of the griddle. You may need to push the sides in toward the griddle housing
