BEFORE FIRST USE
•
Clean all parts (except the Thermostat Control Switch) before using for the first time.
(Refer to “CLEANING & MAINTENANCE” section)
•
Grill is fully immersible with the Thermostat Control Switch removed.
•
NEVER use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads on the non-stick surface as they might
damage the coating.
•
Note: When using your unit for the first time, you may notice some smoke and odor.
This is caused by the unit burning off the protective coating applied at the factory.
It is normal and harmless and will go away with subsequent use.
HOW TO USE YOUR ELECTRIC GRILL
Grill Assembly:
Always use grill on a dry, level, heat-resistant surface, away from any edge. Never
use grill without drip pan in base. Do not use grill unless securely positioned in base.
1.
Place drip pan into base. Fill drip pan with water to maximum water level line, about
3 cups.
2.
Position grill onto base with handles in recessed areas of base. Grill may be
positioned with control to left or right end of base.
3.
With the heat control set to OFF position, plug cord into an electric outlet.
4.
Preheat grill, uncovered, at recommended setting for food being
Connecting Thermostat Control Switch:
1.
Make sure the Thermostat Control Switch is set to OFF, and that it is NOT plugged
into an electrical outlet. Also, ensure that the unit and its parts are not hot.
2.
Insert the extended rod piece on the Thermostat Control Switch into the receptacle
on the side of the Non-Stick Grilling Surface until you feel it lock into place.
3.
Plug the cord into 120V AC electrical outlet.
Setting the Temperature:
1.
Set to desired temperature.
2.
When setting the temperature, the indicator light on the Thermostat Control Switch
will light up indicating that the power is now ON. When the desired temperature
setting has been reached, the light will shut off—this does not mean the grill is OFF.
