griddle plate. Instead, use only wooden or heat-proof plastic
utensils.
• Never leave plastic utensils in contact with the hot grill/griddle
plate.
• After using, scrape excess food buildup through drip hole and into
drip cup, then wipe off any residue with a paper towel before
proceeding with next recipe.
CLeanIng and Care
CAUTION: BEFORE CLEANING APPLIANCE, MAKE SURE IT HAS
COOLED DOWN COMPLETELY.
Once you have finished cooking, turn the temperature control dial to
the Off position and unplug the power cord from the wall outlet. Allow
the unit to cool down for at least 30 minutes before handling. Dispose
of grease from the drip trays and drip cup once cooled. The drip trays
and drip cup can be cleaned by hand or in the dishwasher.
The grill/griddle plate can be washed by hand, using a soft sponge or
cloth and hot water. It may be washed in the dishwasher, as well.
Do not use metal objects such as knives or forks for cleaning the grill/
griddle plate. Do not use a scouring pad for cleaning. The nonstick
coating can be damaged.
If you have been cooking seafood, wipe the grill/griddle plate with
lemon juice to prevent the seafood flavor from transferring to the next
recipe.
The drip cup, drip trays, skewers and hot dog rollers may be
submerged in water or washed in the dishwasher.
The kebab drawers, housing base, and temperature control dial can be
wiped clean with a soft, dry cloth. For tough stains, dampen cloth.
Never use abrasive cleaners or harsh pads.
The kebab drawers are not immersible or dishwasher safe.
