PROPER CARE AND MAINTENANCE

The current propane tanks are equipped with a safety valve (OPD Valve)
that restricts the output of the propane in case the hose is cut or burned. If
this valve closes you will only get a small yellow flame.

To reset the OPD Valve;

• Close the tank valve.

• Remove the POL nut.

• Close the needle valve.

• Reattach the POL nut.

• Open the tank valve very slowly, approximately 1 1/2 to 2 turns.

• Open the needle valve and relight the “Cajun Bayou Griddle”.

Cleaning the Cajun Bayou Griddle

Your Cajun Bayou Griddle should be easy to clean and take care of. The
Cooking surface of this griddle is stainless steel and can be cleaned similar to
institutional griddles. Griddle Bricks can be purchased to aid in the cleaning
process. The recommended cleaning methods is: heat the griddle to a
medium\ low temperature. Place a small amount of vegetable oil on the
cooking surface, Work griddle brick over surface until all cooking residue is

scraped clean. Wipe griddle top with a clean damp rag, turning often to keep

a clean edge on the griddle surface.

2. Close needle valve on either on the face plate (CBG LG) or on the right
side (CBG Reg). Open valve on propane tank.

3. Always use caution when lighting griddle. Crack open the needle valve and
ignite through the oblong hole with a long stem trigger propane lighter. Do not
allow the gas to build up in griddle head. If grill does not ignite within 3 sec­onds, close needle valve and wait 1 minute before attempting to light the
griddle.

4. Open the needle valve to increase temperature. Some adjustments may be
required if equipped with an adjustable regulator.
