carefully adjusting each arm and tighten
the screws.
STEP 3:
Place the Pyron Plate on the support frame
and insert the cooking support into the cen-
tre of the Pyron Plate.
PREPARATION AND INITIAL
OPERATION
INITIAL USE
During the fi rst use, the plate will arch. Due
to the material, it cannot be predicted if the
arching will take place upwards or downwards.
If the plate arched upwards please remove
the cooking support wearing heat resistant
gloves and park on a heat-resistant surface.
Turn the entire plate over so that it is arched
downwards and carefully reinsert the cooking
support. Afterwards, you may season your
Pyron Plate.
SEASONING
The Pyron Plate is coated ex works with food-
safe paraffi n oil in order to prevent corrosion.
However, you must season your Pyron Plate
before using it for the fi rst time.
1. Apply a heat-resistant oil, such as linseed
oil, rapeseed oil or pumpkin seed oil, to
your Griddle Plate so that it creates a layer.
Spread the oil over the entire surface, e.g.
with a brush. Place the Pyron Plate on
your running Pyron. Wait until the oil stops
smoking.
2. After some time, your Griddle Plate will
darken in places or over a larger area and
the typical patina will form.
3. Remove the Griddle Plate from the Pyron
and allow the plate to slowly cool. Rinse the
Griddle Plate with hot water and carefully
remove any residues. Finally, dry the plate
thoroughly and re-oil it. Use one of the oils
mentioned above.
4. Repeat the seasoning process two more
times: Coat the Pyron Plate with oil, wait
until the oil stops smoking, let the plate
cool down, wash it with hot water and ca-
refully remove any residue.
5. The Feuerhand Pyron Plate is now ready
for use. After each use, simply rinse the
plate with hot water or wipe it with a pa-
per towel. For corrosion protection, there
should always be a thin layer of oil/grease.
The seasoning process can be repeated as
often as necessary.
Please note that your Pyron Plate is not
suitable for preparing acidic foods such as
tomatoes, citrus fruits or red wine. Acidic
foods and red wine must not be used under
any circumstances, otherwise the patina will
be damaged.
