To reduce the risk of personal injury or property damage, when using electrical appliances basic safety precautions should always be
followed, including the following:

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

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, detachable power supply cord is provided to reduce the risk of becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Extension
cords may be used if care is properly exercised in their use.
If 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 also be arranged so that it will not drape over the table or counter 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 appliance for purposes different from those specified in the instruction manual may cause damage to the appliance and will void the warranty.
1. Place griddle on a dry, level, heat-resistant surface away from walls, cabinets,
and other obstacles.
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.
2. Slide the drip tray into place. Insert the
heat control into the griddle so the two
electrical pins on the griddle are fully
inserted into the heat control. Connect the power cord to a 120VAC electrical wall outlet only.
3. Turn the heat control to desired temperature and preheat the griddle. The pilot light goes off when the selected temperature is reached,
in about 5 to 10 minutes.
NOTE: You may hear a pop or clicking sound while the griddle is preheating. This is normal and due to the expansion of the metal
as it heats. You may also hear this sound as the griddle cools down.
4. Prepare the food for cooking. Because the griddle features a nonstick finish, 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 the food on the griddle and cook according to temperature-timetable on page 3. Adjust the heat according to personal preference
and the particular food being cooked.
During cooking, the pilot light will go on and off to indicate the desired temperature is being maintained.
For best results, use heat-resistant nylon, plastic, wooden, or rubber utensils. Do not use metal utensils as they may scratch the non-
stick surface. Do not cut foods on the cooking surface.
6. Turn the heat control to OFF when cooking is done. Unplug from the wall outlet and then from the griddle. Allow the griddle to cool
before removing the drip tray and before cleaning.

Care and Cleaning
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.
The nonstick cooking surface may be cleaned with a non-metal cleaning pad, such as Scotch-Brite* Multi-Purpose Scrub Sponge or
Scotch-Brite* Dobie* Cleaning Pad. Firm pressure can be applied.
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: If you choose to wash the griddle in the dishwasher, 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 to towels or to skin.
In time, the nonstick finish may darken over the heating element due to a buildup of grease residue. This discoloration can be removed
by dissolving one tablespoon of powdered automatic dishwasher detergent in one cup of hot water.
Slide the drip tray into place. Preheat the griddle to 225°. Wearing rubber gloves, dip the cleaning pad into cleaning solution and rub
over the cooking surface, being careful gloves do not come in contact with the hot cooking surface. Continue cleaning until the solution
is gone. Turn the griddle off and allow to cool. Wash the griddle in warm, soapy water, rinse, and dry. After treating the griddle, it is
recommended that the cooking surface be wiped lightly with vegetable oil before using.
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.
