INSTALLATION

For your protection, we recommend that a qualied electrician install this appliance.
The electrician should be familiar with electrical installations and your local electrical requirements.

Proper connections and power supply are essential for efcient performance. The supply circuit

should be properly fused as required by local electrical code.

Plug into 110-125V A.C. outlet that has line of sufcient capacity to operate griddle. Check wattage

and voltage on the nameplate. Slow performance will indicate the griddle is connected to a line of

insufcient capacity or to one already loaded to capacity. DO NOT plug into a 240V line unless you

ordered a 240V griddle. Doing so will damage the element very quickly and void the warranty. If this
appliance does not heat, check your plug and your wall receptacle for loose connections or blown
fuses.

CAUTION

INITIAL START UP

Before using the unit for the rst time, wipe down the exterior and platen area with a damp cloth.

Heat for approximately 30 minutes. The warmer may emit a small amount of smoke as the cooking
surface reaches its operating temperature. Do not be alarmed, as the smoke is caused by oils
associated with the manufacturing process and will stop when the burn off is complete. Brush off any
debris from the warming surface.

SEASONING THE TORTILLA GRILL HEATING SURFACE

FIRST TIME SEASONING

Follow your company/corporate guidelines for seasoning cooking surfaces or perform the following:

1

. Bring the grill to 300°F (148°C) and leave it on while performing the next three steps.

2. Brush the cooking surfaces with a release agent. If using an aerosol agent,

rst apply into a cup and then brush onto cooking surface.

3

. Let sit for 20 minutes.

4. Wipe the cooking surface clean, using a warm damp cloth.

TEMPERATURE CONTROL

(65.5°C to 232°C).

PLATEN AND SHEET METAL SURFACES ARE HOT DURING OPERATION AND
