Clean After Each Use: While the griddle is still warm, scrape off food residue with a spatula and wipe with a damp cloth.
-
Avoid Harsh Cleaners: Use mild soap and water for cleaning; avoid abrasive pads or chemicals that can damage the surface.

Prevent Rust: Dry thoroughly after washing and apply a light coat of oil to prevent oxidation.

Remove Grease Buildup: Periodically clean grease traps and channels to maintain performance and hygiene.

Use Proper Utensils: Wooden or silicone spatulas help prevent scratching the surface.

Store in a Dry Place: If not in use, keep the griddle plate in a cool, dry area to avoid moisture buildup.
-
Check for Warping: Avoid extreme temperature changes, such as placing a cold griddle on high heat, to prevent warping.

Deep Clean Occasionally: For tough stains, use a mixture of baking soda and water, let sit, then scrub gently.
