Features of Your DuraCeramic Griddle

How to Use Your Electric Griddle

Insert the warming tray into guides under the front of the griddle. Insert the drip tray into guides under the rear of the griddle.
Turn the temperature probe dial to the off position and attach securely to the griddle.
Preheat the griddle by aligning the selected temperature setting on the temperature control probe knob with the indicator light. The griddle is preheated when the light on the knob goes off. The light will cycle during use, indicating the selected temperature is maintained.

Note: When cooking consecutive batches of bacon or other high-fat foods, it may be necessary to empty the drip tray to avoid grease overflowing onto the countertop.

Caution: Grease may be hot!
Caution: Some countertops are sensitive to heat; use care not to place the griddle on surfaces where heat may cause damage.
Caution: Griddle surfaces are hot during use. Allow to cool completely before handling or cleaning.

Warming Tray

Your warming tray can be conveniently used to keep cooked food warm while the griddle is turned on. To use, simply slide out the warming tray and place food in the tray. When done, slide in the warming tray.

Note: Do not overfill the warming tray. Food should not touch the bottom of the griddle plate.

Care & Cleaning

Your DuraCeramic Griddle should be cleaned after every use.

- Note: To protect the DuraCeramic coating, do not run cold water over the cooking surface immediately after use.
Remove the temperature control probe. Do not immerse the temperature control probe or griddle in liquids.
Wipe down the cooking surface with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly. Do not use steel wool or other metal pads as this may scratch the surface.
Remove the drip tray and discard contents.
The griddle, drip tray, and warming tray are not dishwasher safe. You may wash them with hot soapy water, rinse, and dry thoroughly.

Caution: The temperature control probe and probe connection must always be completely dry before use.

For proper care of your DuraCeramic coated griddle follow these steps if stubborn stains appear:

Sprinkle some baking soda on the stained area.
Add enough water to moisten the baking soda, making a paste-like texture.
Let sit for a few minutes (for tougher stains let sit up to an hour).
Lightly scrub with a plastic scouring pad or damp cloth, rinse, and dry thoroughly.
Repeat if necessary.

Important Safeguards

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:

Read all instructions before using.
Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
To protect against electrical shock, do not immerse the temperature control probe or cord in water or other liquids.
This appliance is not for use by children.
Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used near children.
Switch off and remove the plug from the outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow cooling before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning the appliance.
Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner. Return the appliance to the nearest authorized Oster service facility for examination, repair, or adjustment.
The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the manufacturer may cause injuries.
Do not use outdoors.
Do not let the cord hang over the edge of a table or counter, or touch heated surfaces.
Do not place on or near a hot gas burner or electric burner, or in a heated oven.
Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance containing hot oil or other hot liquids.
Always attach the temperature control probe to the appliance first, then plug the cord into the wall outlet. To disconnect, turn the temperature control to OFF, then remove the plug from the wall outlet.

THIS UNIT IS INTENDED FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY.

These appliances are for HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY. No user-serviceable parts inside. Do not attempt to service these products. Do not immerse the base in water or other liquids.

Electric Power

If the electric circuit is overloaded with other appliances, the griddle may not operate properly. The griddle must be operated on a separate circuit from other operating appliances.

Polarized Plug

This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). As a safety feature to reduce the risk of electrical shock, this plug is intended to fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature or modify the plug in any way. If the plug fits loosely into the AC outlet or if the AC outlet feels warm, do not use that outlet.

Extension Cord Use

A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting from entanglement or tripping over a longer cord. An extension cord may be used with care; however, the marked electrical rating should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance. The extension cord should not be allowed to drape over the counter or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over.
