INSTRUCTIONS
This is a Listed appliance. The following important safeguards are recommended by most portable appliance manufacturers.
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
To reduce the risk of personal injury or property damage, when using electrical appliances basic safety precautions should always be
followed, including the following:
1. Read all instructions.
2. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
3. To protect against electrical shock, do not immerse heat control, cord, or plug in water or other liquid.
4. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
5. 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.
6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or in the event the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any
manner. Do not operate if the legs and/or cool-touch base become cracked or damaged. Return the appliance to the Presto Factory
Service Department for examination, repair, or electrical or mechanical adjustment.
7. The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the appliance manufacturer may cause injuries.
8. Do not use outdoors.
9. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter or touch hot surfaces.
10. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner or in a heated oven.
11. It is recommended that this appliance not be moved when it contains hot oil or other hot liquid. If it must be moved when it contains
hot oil or other hot liquid, use extreme caution.
12. Always attach heat control to appliance first, then plug cord into wall outlet. To disconnect, turn control to OFF then remove plug
from wall outlet.
13. Do not use appliance for other than intended use.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
THIS PRODUCT IS FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY.
Important Cord Information
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit
into 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 attempt to modify the plug in any way.
1
A short power supply cord (or cord set) is provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer
cord. Extension cords may be used if care is properly exercised in their use. If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of
the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance. The extension cord should be arranged so that it
will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
Connect the power supply cord to a 120VAC electrical outlet only.
How To Use
Before using for the first time, become familiar with the griddle features. Wash the griddle in warm, soapy water, rinse, and dry. Do not
immerse Control Master heat control in water or let it come in contact with any liquid.
NOTICE: This griddle is not intended to be used as a warming tray, hot
plate, or for heating any cookware. Using this product for purposes
different from those specified in the instruction manual may cause
Cool-touch base
damage to the product and will void the product warranty.
1. Place assembled griddle on a dry, level, heat-resistant surface
Ceramic nonstick surface
away from walls, cabinets, and other objects.
NOTICE: To prevent possible heat damage to your countertop,
place a heat-resistant counter protector, such as aluminum foil,
Drip tray
under the griddle; take care not to place the foil under the griddle’s
legs.
2. Slide the drip tray into place. Insert the Control Master heat control into the griddle so the two electrical pins on the griddle are fully
inserted into the heat control. Connect cord to a 120VAC electrical wall outlet only.
3. Turn Control Master heat control to desired temperature; see page 3 for temperature-timetable. Preheat griddle. Pilot light goes off
when selected temperature is reached, approximately 5 to 10 minutes.
NOTE: Occasionally you may hear a pop or clicking sound while the griddle is preheating; this is due to the expansion of the metal
as it heats. It is normal. You may also notice this sound as the unit cools down.
4. Prepare food for cooking. Because the griddle features a ceramic nonstick surface, food may be prepared with little or no oil.
NOTICE: Avoid using no-stick cooking sprays as they may cause the cooking surface to become tacky.
5. Place food on griddle and cook according to temperature-timetable. Heat should be adjusted according to personal preference and
particular food being cooked. During cooking, pilot light will go on and off indicating desired temperature is being maintained.
For best results use heat-resistant nylon, plastic, or wooden utensils. Do not use metal utensils as they may scratch the ceramic non-
stick surface. Do not cut foods on the cooking surface.
6. Turn heat control to OFF when cooking is completed. Unplug heat control from wall outlet then from appliance. Allow griddle to
cool before removing drip tray and before cleaning.

Care and Cleaning
After each use, remove heat control and wash the griddle in warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Make sure to also clean the
underside, as necessary. Do not use steel wool or abrasive kitchen cleaners. Do not immerse Control Master heat control in water
or let it come in contact with any liquid.
NOTICE: Repeated washings in a dishwasher will cause the nonstick properties of the ceramic coating to slowly diminish. In addition,
the bottom of the griddle will likely discolor due to the caustic nature of the dishwasher detergent. A gray residue may also form on the
griddle bottom which may transfer onto towels and/or skin.
In time, the nonstick finish may darken over the heating element. To minimize or remove this discoloration, sprinkle baking soda over
the discolored area. Add enough water to make a paste. Allow paste to sit for several minutes and then scour with a plastic scouring pad,
such as Scotch-Brite* Dobie* Cleaning Pad, or a damp cloth. Wash and dry thoroughly. Repeat the procedure, if necessary.
Periodically check the screws on the griddle frames for looseness. Retighten, if necessary, with a standard slotted screwdriver.
NOTICE: Continuing to tighten, once secure, can result in stripping of screws or cracking of frames.
IMPORTANT: To ensure continued accuracy of the Control Master heat control, avoid rough handling in use and storage.
