Care and Cleaning
Before initial use and after each subsequent use, wash the Grill and drip tray in the dishwasher or wash in hot, sudsy water, rinse, and
dry.
Do not immerse the Control Master
®
heat control in water or let it come in contact with any liquid.
Note: If you choose to wash the Grill in a dishwasher, the bottom of the Grill will likely discolor due to the caustic nature of the
dishwashing detergent.
After each use, while the Grill is still slightly warm, use the spatula/scaper to guide the grease drippings along the grids into the drip
tray. This works best if you hold the spatula at about a 45° angle to make better contact with the grids. The spatula/scaper may also be
used to remove any food residue from the grids.
If washing by hand, clean the nonstick surface with a non-metal cleaning pad, such as Scotch-Brite* Multi-Purpose Scrub Sponge*
or Scotch-Brite* Dobie* Cleaning Pad. Firm pressure can be applied, if necessary. Do not use steel wool or abrasive kitchen cleaners.
The cool touch base on the Grill is easy to keep attractive and looking new. Simply wipe away spills and drips as they occur. Any food
residue remaining can be removed with warm, sudsy water and a cleaning pad. Rinse and wipe dry.
Periodically check the handle attachment screws for looseness. Retighten, if necessary, with a standard slotted screwdriver.
CAUTION: Overtightening can result in stripping of the screws or cracking of the plastic frame.
IMPORTANT:
To insure continued accuracy of the Control Master
®
heat control, avoid rough handling in use and storage.
