FAQs

How do I clean the griddle?

After cooking and letting the griddle cool, scrape off food debris with a griddle scraper. Use a paper towel to wipe the surface and then clean the griddle with a mild soap and water solution, if necessary.

What kind of gas does the griddle use?

The griddle uses Butane/Propane gas. Ensure you have the correct gas type and a compatible adapter hose.

What is the warranty period?

The griddle comes with a 2-year warranty.

How do I season the griddle?

After cleaning, apply a thin layer of cooking oil to the griddle surface. Heat the griddle on medium heat for about 30 minutes. Let it cool and repeat this process 2-3 times.

Can I use the griddle indoors?

No, the griddle is designed for outdoor use only and should not be used indoors due to the risk of carbon monoxide build-up.

What should I do if the burner won't light?

Check the gas supply and the igniter. Make sure the burner ports are not clogged and clean them if needed. Consult the manual for specific ignition instructions.

Where can I find replacement parts?

Troubleshooting

Griddle won't ignite.

Check the gas supply and ensure the propane tank is connected correctly and has gas. Check the igniter battery and replace if necessary. Ensure the control knobs are in the 'Off' position before opening the gas valve.

Uneven heating across the cooking surface.

Ensure the griddle is preheated for the recommended time (10-15 minutes). Check the burners for any blockages and clean them if necessary. Make sure the griddle is level on the surface.

Grease fire.

Immediately turn off the gas supply. Let the fire extinguish itself. Clean the griddle and grease trap thoroughly before reuse.

Low heat output.

Check the gas supply and ensure the tank is full. Ensure the burner tubes are clean and free of obstructions. Check the gas regulator for any issues.
