Do they mean you can submerge the whole griddle in the sink/dishwasher after it is unplugged from the heat control?

I believe so, I don't find it necessary to submerge mine though. I tilt it in the sink with socket side down, so water runs over it. I think drip dry it socket side down so water doesn't sit in there, it can drain out. I haven't had any issues with mine. We love using this griddle. It heats up quickly, and makes beautiful pancakes and grilled cheese sandwiches. I'm also able to make twice as much as I would using a standard large skillet.

Yes, you can fill just one or two of the four griddle sections. I'm not sure why - I suspect it has to do with thermostat dynamics - but they seem to cook more slowly when you do so.

In my case I did not, but yours could be different. It depends on how the dishwasher is connected to the plumbing.

Not that I know of, I just soak it in the sink with some bleach after I'm done cleaning.

I guess you could. I would wash out the metal cup afterwards, but I don't believe it would hurt the system. I don't have the user's manual though, so I can't advise as to what they recommend.

Sorry for the delay in your answer. Yes, the griddle can be removed for easier cleaning.

I agree with answer by Silvanac...the controller/element lifts out when cool. The plug unplugs by magnetic coupling. That leaves the stainless main vessel, the oil fryer reservoir, lid, and the baskets. If they fit, they can be washed in dishwasher. My frying episodes have not greatly soiled the stainless main vessel which is really just a shell which simply holds the oil reservoir and controller in place. I found it easier just to wipe it off with a damp cloth.

No, it replaces one of the two grates. You need to remove one of the two grates and replace it with this griddle. But if you really like to cook with this griddle sit on top of the grates, I guess, why not?

Yes. You can submerge everything in water EXCEPT the actual electric timer/temperature housing. I really like the spigot for draining the oil but don't forget to close it after draining otherwise the next time you use it, the oil will go in the top and spill out the bottom.

You turn it on first and then submerge. Also, when you're finished using it, you'll turn it off and remove the plug completely from the unit.

No, the griddle and temperature control should never be immersed in water. For cleaning, we recommend allowing the griddle to cool and then wiping the cooking surface with a damp cloth and drying it thoroughly.

No I disconnected my furnace hot water and replaced it with this heater for sink use only. now it supply's hot water immediately since it is mounted under the sink.

yes, there is a picture on the bottom of the container of a dishwasher with an arrow pointing to the top rack. If you have your drying cycle off on the dishwasher you may be ok but I wouldn't chance it. I'm not sure if the water gets heated up by the heating element while washing but I do know it does on the drying cycle, I have mine turned off but still put it on the top rack.

absolutely not. Its only to be used after you drain the water from the unit for winter storage.

I did submerge heating rod when I washed it but I don't know how it will work ander pressure. Never tried. I do have separate pressure cooker. Anyway seal never worked that mean it will not pressurize when you cook stew or soup.

Absolutely NOT. Unplug when done and allow up to 2 hours to reheat and cool to usable temperature.

Yes, just don't plug in the unit until it is completely submerged. If the heating unit is heated out of water, it will burn out.
