OPERATION
CAUTION:
HOT SURFACE
Exposed surfaces can be
very hot and may cause
severe burns on contact.
IMPORTANT: SCRATCHES
WILL DAMAGE THE
SURFACE OF CHROMEPLATED GRIDDLES.
DO NOT use anything on
chrome griddle that could
scratch the surface.
PREPARING THE GRIDDLE SURFACE
SEASONING STANDARD AND GROOVED GRIDDLES
As manufactured, the steel surface of your Wells griddle has
microscopic pores. It is important to ll these pores with oil in order
to provide a hard, non-stick cooking surface.
a. Preheat griddle surface to 375ºF (191ºC).
b. Spread a light lm of cooking oil over entire griddle surface.
c. Allow oil lm to “cook in” for approximately 2 minutes, or until
it smokes.
d. Wipe griddle surface with clean damp cloth to remove all oil.
e. For new griddles, repeat this procedure 2-3 times until griddle
has a slick, clean surface.
CHROME PLATED GRIDDLES
Because the microscopic pores in the griddle surface are lled by the
chrome plating, no seasoning of the griddle surface is required.
a. Thoroughly clean griddle surface using a soft clean cloth and a
small amount of mild detergent.
b. Rinse and dry thoroughly after cleaning.
c. The griddle is now ready to use.
DO NOT clean chrome
surface with griddle bricks,
pumice stone or abrasive
cleansers.
USING THE GRIDDLE
Check the chart on page 7 for recommended cooking temperatures.
Turn temperature control knob to the desired temperature. The heating
indicator light will glow while the griddle is heating. When the indicator
light rst goes out, griddle is ready to use.
For standard griddles:
• Keep the griddle surface clean and well oiled during use.
• Scrape cooking waste into the grease trough frequently during
use.
• Occasionally brush or spray a light coat of cooking oil on the
griddle surface in order to maintain the non-stick surface.
For chrome plated griddles:
• Scrape cooking waste into the grease trough after preparing
each order.
• DO NOT bang or tap pots, pans, spatulas or other metal
utensils on the griddle surface as this may damage the chrome
plating.

OPERATION (continued)
NOTE:
Separate sections of griddle may be set to different temperatures.
This will allow a variety of products to be prepared at the same time,
and will allow prepared product to be held at serving temperature
after cooking.
For best results, different temperatures should be set from coolest to
hottest sequentially across the width of the griddle. (Heat will migrate
over the entire griddle surface. Setting one section low, adjacent to a
section set high, may overwork components in the “high” section as the
thermostat tries to compensate for heat lost to the “low” section.)
Teppan griddle JG-246UL heats in the center two quadrants only. The
outer two quadrants are used for holding prepared food at temperature.
