followed, including the following:

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.
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.
Before the First Use
Remove all packing material. Set the handles, drip tray, and heat control aside. Wash the griddle in warm, soapy water, rinse, and dry.
Do not immerse the Control Master heat control in water or let it come in contact with any liquid. Before using this griddle, the
handles must be attached as instructed below:
1. Place the griddle cooking surface side down on a flat surface (Fig. A).
2. Position one of the handles, feet side up, over the griddle so that the two handle holes are directly over the latch clip catches. The
latch clip levers will rest on the catches.
3. Pull the latch clips back beyond the catches (Fig. B) and push the handle down until it is firmly seated against the griddle. Release
the latch clips to lock the handle into place. To be sure the handle is securely attached, check that both latch clips are under the edge
of the latch clip catches (Fig. C).
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 with the other handle.
How To Use
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 damage to the product and will void the product warranty.
1. Place assembled griddle on a dry, level, heat-resistant 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, under the griddle; take care not to place the foil under the
griddle’s legs. Slide drip tray onto tracks.
2. Insert the Control Master heat control probe 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). 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 and 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 the temperature-timetable (page 3). 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 nonstick 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
To disassemble the griddle handles for cleaning and storage:
Initially, place the griddle cooking surface side down on the counter. Remove each of the handles by pulling the latch clips back until the
clips clear the edge of the latch clip catches (Fig. B). While holding the clips back, lift the handle from the griddle. With practice, you
will be able to open the clips and remove the handles while the griddle is in an upright position.
After each use, remove heat control and wash the griddle in warm, soapy water. Make sure to also clean the underside, as necessary. Rinse
and dry thoroughly. 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: To maintain the appearance of the griddle, do not wash it in the dishwasher. Washing it in the dishwasher will cause the nonstick
properties of the ceramic coating to slowly diminish. In addition, the decorative trim and the bottom of the griddle will likely discolor
due to the caustic nature of the dishwashing detergent. A gray residue may also form on the trim and griddle bottom and 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.
IMPORTANT: To ensure continued accuracy of the Control Master heat control, avoid rough handling in use and storage.
