The installation of the electric griddle should conform to the:
NATIONAL ELECTRIC CODE AND ALL LOCAL ELECTRIC CODES AND ORDINANCES AND THE LOCAL ELECTRIC COMPANY RULES AND REGULATIONS
For your protection we recommend that a qualied electrician install this griddle. He should
be familiar with electrical installations and all electric codes. Proper connections and power
supply are essential for efcient performance. The supply circuit should be properly fused and
equipped with a means of disconnecting, as required by local electrical code. THE BODY OF THE GRIDDLE SHOULD BE GROUNDED (DO NOT GROUND TO A GAS SUPPLY LINE).
GENERAL OPERATING PROCEDURES
The Star-Max series electric griddles may be wired for operation in the eld for 1-phase power
supplies by making line connections with the power cord located at the rear of the unit. Be certain the unit is supplied with the proper voltage listed on the nameplate.

SEASONING THE GRIDDLE HEATING SURFACE (NON CHROMIUM SURFACE)
Prior to seasoning the griddle, remove the protective coating from the griddle surface using a mild detergent and water. Clean the griddle surface thoroughly. After the griddle has been thoroughly cleaned, it should be seasoned to prevent food from sticking. Before using and
after each thorough scouring, season the griddle heating surface in the following manner.
1. Turn temperature control dials to 325°F (162°C).
2. Using a clean cloth, not a spatula, spread a thin lm of cooking oil over the griddle cooking surface. This lm should remain on the hot griddle surface for half an hour.
3. Remove the excess oil and wipe clean.
4. Apply another lm of cooking oil over the hot cooking area for another half hour and again
remove excess oil and wipe clean. The griddle surface should now be ready for use.
Even with careful seasoning, food may, to some extent, stick to the griddle cooking surface until the griddle plate is broken in.
TEMPERATURE CONTROL
The temperature controls are combination “ON/OFF” switches and thermostats. Turning the dial knob automatically maintains the selected heat range.
The Star-Max electric griddle line has one thermostat for every 12” (30cm) section of griddle that operates independently of one another. Each thermostat controls the section of the griddle above it and may be set at different temperatures as desired.
COOKING
Set the thermostat dial knob at the temperature desired. After a short pre-heating period, the thermostat will automatically maintain the selected temperature.
IDLING
During idle periods, to save on operating costs, lower the temperature setting of the thermostat to about 250°F (121°C). It is not necessary to maintain cooking temperature during idle periods, as the griddle can quickly be reheated to the desired temperature.
SIGNAL LIGHTS
Each thermostat has its own signal light which indicates when the unit’s control knob is not in the off position.
GRIDDLE CARE (NON-CHROMIUM SURFACES)
It takes very little time and effort to keep the griddle attractive and performing at top efciency.
If grease is permitted to accumulate, it will form a gummy cake and then carbonize into a
hard substance which is extremely difcult to remove. To prevent this condition, the following
suggestions for cleanliness should be followed:
1. After each use, scrape the griddle with a scraper or exible spatula to remove excess
grease and food. A waste drawer is provided for the scrapings. If there is an accumulation of burned on grease and food, the griddle should be thoroughly scoured and re seasoned. Use pumice or griddle stone while the griddle is warm. Do not use steel wool because of the danger of steel slivers getting into the food.
2. Daily, use a clean cloth and a good non-abrasive cleaner to clean the stainless steel body of the griddle. Wipe the polished front with a soft cloth.
3. At least once a day, remove the waste drawer and wash in the same way as an ordinary cooking utensil. The drawers are removed by pulling forward until they are released from
their track.
