doneness by inserting the meat thermometer into the center of the food being
cooked and make sure the thermometer is not touching the bone or grill plates.

GRILLING FRUITS AND VEGETABLES
The following are meant to be used as a guideline only. The times reflect a
full grill of food. Cooking time will depend upon thickness of food. Use a fork

the grilling plate.) If the food needs longer cooking, check periodically to avoid
overcooking the food.

GRILLING TIPS
• To prevent heat loss and for even cooking, do not open the lid frequently.
• For best results, do not overload the grill.
• When first cooking a particular food, check for doneness several minutes
before suggested time; if necessary adjust time.
• When cooking several pieces 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 or marinate foods before grilling.
Important: Use only silicone, heatproof plastic or wood utensils when cooking
on the grill. Silicone utensils are especially good because they do not discolor
or melt with the high temperature.

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: Heat continues to be ON until grill is unplugged.
2. Place drip tray under front of grill. 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. 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.
5. Empty drip tray and wash in warm, soapy water; dry thoroughly with a paper
towel.
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.
