Grilling tips:
• To prevent heat loss and promote even cooking, do not open the grill cover
frequently while cooking.
• Do not overfill grill; it will hold 2 to 4 servings comfortably.
• When first cooking a particular food, check for doneness several minutes
before suggested time; if necessary, adjust timer using control button.
• If cooking more than one piece of food, try to have them similar in size and
thickness.
• Remember that since grill is cooking from both sides, cooking time will
typically be shorter than expected. Watch carefully to avoid overcooking.
• For added flavor, add dry seasonings before grilling or marinate foods before
cooking.
USING THE LOCKING HINGE POSITION
This feature keeps upper grill plate above food on lower grill plate.
1. This grill has a unique hinge that allows the grill cover to adjust to the
thickness of food being grilled. This allows for even melting of cheese on top
of hot cooked hamburgers.
2. If the grill is not hot, preheat grill following directions under PREHEATING
THE GRILL.
3. Lift handle of the grill cover up and forward into the locking position of float &
lock hinge.
4. Lower the grill cover into the BROILING position
above the food
(E).
Important: Make sure the latches are always
fully opened when cooking on the grill.
5. Allow food to cook for desired time.
6. For even browning and cooking, when grilling
more than one sandwich or piece of meat, it is
important that the thickness of each be about the
same.
Care and Cleaning
CLEANING
Caution: To avoid accidental burns, allow grill to cool thoroughly before
cleaning.
1. Before cleaning, unplug grill from wall outlet and allow to cool.
Important: Heating elements will continue to be ON until the On/Off
switch is pressed or the appliance is unplugged.
2. Place drip tray under front of grill (see illustration D). Use plastic spatula to
scrape off any excess fat and food particles left on the grill plates; runoff will
drip into the drip tray.
3. Use a warm, soapy sponge to wipe plates clean, then rinse sponge and
wipe again to remove any soapy residue. Dry thoroughly with an absorbent
paper towel.
4. Empty drip tray and wash in warm, soapy water; dry thoroughly with a paper
towel.
5. To remove stubborn buildup, use a nylon or nonmetallic scrubbing pad to
clean the grill plates.
Important: Do not use metallic scrubbing pads, steel wool or any
abrasive cleaners to clean any part of your grill; use only nylon or
nonmetallic scrubbing pads.
6. To clean the grill cover, wipe with a warm, wet sponge and dry with a soft,
dry cloth.
Important: Do not immerse body of grill in water or any other liquid.
7. Any servicing requiring disassembly other than the above cleaning must be
preformed by a qualified electrician.
Caution: Make sure to hold grill cover by the handle while cleaning to
prevent accidental closing and injury.
STORAGE
• Always make sure grill is clean and dry before storing.
• Be sure locking side latches are fully closed and locked before storing grill.
This allows you to store the grill vertically.
