• Stainless Steel Cleaning Tips:
Step 1: Dip a soft cloth in warm water mixed with a mild dish detergent.
Wipe the surface, rinse the cloth and wipe again, then dry with a towel
to prevent water spots.
Step 2: If you still see ngerprints, spray a glass cleaner onto a soft
cloth and wipe ngerprints away.
Step 3:To remove baked-on food and grease, make a paste of baking
soda and warm water. Gently rub onto the surface using a soft cloth or
sponge. Wipe with a clean wet cloth and towel dry. For scratches and
stains, use a stainless-steel cleaner and apply to the area, following
directions. Rinse with a clean damp cloth, then dry.
• Store outdoors in a dry, well-ventilated area out of reach of children.
• Store indoors ONLY if LP cylinder is turned off and disconnected, removed
from the unit, and stored outdoors.
• Follow “Cleaning the Burner Assembly” instructions before starting your
griddle after removing it from storage.
STORING YOUR GRIDDLE
Follow the instructions below to clean and/or replace the burner, replace
the electrode assembly, or if you have trouble igniting your Halo 2-Zone
Countertop Griddle.
1. Turn control knob to the OFF position.
2. Detach burner from bracket and remove the electrode assembly.
3. Carefully lift burner up and pull away to the left from valve openings.
Suggestions: there are three ways to clean the burner tubes.
• Use a narrow nylon brush with a exible handle (a brass wire
brush is NOT recommended), run the brush through the burner
venturi through burner several times.
• Bend a rigid wire (a coat hanger will also work) into a small hook.
Run the hook through burner tube several times.
• Use an air hose to force air into the burner tube and out the
burner ports (wear eye protection). Check each port to make sure
that air comes out each hole.
4. Use a wire brush on the entire outer surface of burner to remove
food residue and dirt.
5. Clean any blocked ports with a stiff wire such as an open paper clip.
6. Check the burner for damage. Due to normal wear and corrosion,
some holes may become enlarged. If any large cracks or holes are
found, replace the burner.
7. Attach the electrode assembly to the burner and connect the
electrode wire.
8. Carefully place the burner back onto the valve spuds.
9. Attach the burner to bracket on the rebox.
CLEANING AND BURNER ASSEMBLY
Food storage safety tips:
• Understand what “high-risk” foods are.
• Always keep high-risk food at the proper temperature.
• Store raw foods, such as raw meat, seafood, and vegetables below cooked
foods in the refrigerator or freezer.
• Store food in properly covered containers made of glass or plastic.
• Avoid refreezing already thawed foods.
WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT
FOOD SAFETY
1. WASH YOUR HANDS-Wash your hands with hot water and soap for at
least 15-20 seconds before and after handling food.
2. SEPARATE RAW AND READY TO EAT/COOKED FOODS
• Ensure that raw food is always kept refrigerated and away from ready
to eat/cooked foods. Food that is marinating should also be kept
covered in the fridge.
• Ready to eat foods (such as salads, vegetables, sauces) and cooked
foods, should never come into contact with raw food as this causes
harmful bacteria to contaminate the cooked food.
• Always ensure that you use separate chopping boards/utensils for raw
and cooked foods, and always wash your hands after handling raw food.
3. COOK FOOD THOROUGHLY
• Food poisoning is caused by harmful bacteria, such as E-Coli and
Salmonella, which are killed by cooking. In order to ensure food
safety, it is essential to cook food thoroughly.
• Slice into the thickest part of the meat with a fork and a sharp
knife to check whether it's cooked. If the color of the meat in the
center is still pink, it needs to cook longer.
• Burgers should always be cooked thoroughly and never be served
pink.
• Food thermometers are available in most supermarkets, and they
can easily tell whether meat is cooked by probing it for 165 degrees
Fahrenheit or 74 degrees Celsius. They are a handy tool to have in
your kitchen.
4. SERVE FOOD IMMEDIATELY AFTER COOKING - Letting cooked
food sit at room temperature allows for harmful bacteria to grow.
Once food is cooked, serve immediately; otherwise, you should cool
cooked food quickly, refrigerate, and consume with 2 days.
5. ALWAYS KEEP FOOD COVERED - Always keep food covered to ensure
that ies are not contaminating your food.
