Reducing Grilling Machine
®
1. Before using the grill for the first time, wipe the grill plates with a damp
cloth to remove all dust and make sure both grill plates are firmly attached
to the appliance.
Note:
When attaching the plates, carefully and securely attach each into the
appliance using the release handles on the plates only when plates are cool.
Make sure that BOTH release handles of the grill plates are properly latched and
secured on the grill before use.
2.
To preheat:
Close the lid and plug cord into a outlet. The power light will go
on indicating that the elements are heating. Allow grill to preheat for
5 minutes. When the appliance is preheated, the power light will go off.
3. Use a pot holder to carefully open the lid.
4. Slide the grease catching drip tray under the front of the unit.
5. Carefully place the items to be cooked on the bottom grill plate.
6. Close the lid and allow the food to cook for the desired time. (Consult the
Recipes Section at the back of this book for some suggestions.) The power
light will go on when the lid is closed to indicate that the elements are
heating up to cook.
Do not leave appliance unattended during use!
7. After the desired amount of time, the food should be done.
8. Disconnect the plug from the wall outlet.
CAUTION: To avoid any sparks at the outlet while disconnecting plug, make
sure the power light is off (not illuminated) before disconnecting the plug from
the outlet.
9. Use a pot holder to carefully open the lid.
10. Remove the food using the plastic spatula provided. Be sure to use either
plastic or wooden utensils so as not to scratch the nonstick surface. Never
use metal tongs, forks or knives as these can damage the coating on the
cooking plates.
11. When cool, the drip tray may be removed and emptied.
Be sure the liquid
is cooled before removing drip tray.
12.
CAUTION: Do not remove the plates while the unit is hot. The appliance
must cool completely before removing the plates.
User Maintenance Instructions
CAUTION: To avoid accidental burns, allow your grill to cool thoroughly before
cleaning.
1. Before cleaning, unplug the appliance from the wall outlet and allow to cool.
CAUTION: To avoid any sparks at the outlet while disconnecting plug, make
sure the power light is off (not illuminated) before disconnecting the plug from
the outlet.
2.
Inside cleaning:
Place the drip tray under the front of the grill. Using the
specially designed spatula, scrape off any excess fat and food particles. Run
off will drip into the drip tray. Wipe the plates with an absorbent paper towel
or sponge.
Stubborn build-up:
Use a non-metallic scrubbing pad to clean the plates.
3. Empty the drip tray and wash with warm soapy water. The grill plates may be
removed from the appliance by pulling out on the grill plate release handles.
Wash in warm, soapy water and dry thoroughly. Reinstall the grill plates,
making sure they are securely attached to the appliance. The removable grill
plates are also dishwasher-safe.
After washing the plates in the dishwasher, wipe the uncoated side with a dry
towel to prevent discoloration. Dishwasher detergent may cause oxidation on
the uncoated side of the cooking plate. This is not harmful and can be wiped
off with a damp towel.
4.
Outside cleaning:
Wipe with a warm, wet sponge and dry with a soft, dry
cloth.
5. Do not use steel wool, scouring pads, or abrasive cleaners on any part of the
appliance.
6.
DO NOT IMMERSE THE BODY OF THE APPLIANCE IN WATER OR OTHER
LIQUID.
7. Any servicing requiring disassembly other than the above cleaning must be
performed by a qualified electrician.
8. Make sure to hold the top cover (lid) by hand while cleaning to prevent
accidental closing and injury.
