6.Turn heat control to “OFF” when cooking is completed. Unplug heat
control from wall outlet then from appliance. Allow unit to cool to a
comfortable temperature before removing drip pan or cleaning the Grill.
• The closed grilling area (see page 1, Fig. A) is ideal for grilling
small foods, such as sliced mushrooms which may fall through
the open-grate grilling area.
• When grilling, the temperature of the grates may be increased or
decreased by adjusting the Control Master
®
heat control.
• Preheat Grill for 10 minutes for best results.
• Before grilling, trim meat of excess fat to prevent smoking.
• Soak wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes to 1 hour before
using to prevent burning.
• Use plastic tongs or spatulas for turning meat, poultry, and fish.
Forks can pierce meat, allowing flavorful juices to escape.
• Marinate or rub lean meat, poultry, and fish with a small amount
of vegetable oil to enhance flavors, retain moisture, and prevent
sticking on the Grill.
• Plastic, resealable bags work well for marinating. Place
marinade ingredients, meat, fish, or poultry in bag, seal, mix
well, and put in refrigerator for several hours or according to
recipe instructions.
• To speed the cooking time of larger cuts of meat or poultry, tent
the Grill with a piece of aluminum foil.
• Prevent the transfer of bacteria by using separate plates for raw
and cooked meat, fish, and poultry.
Before initial use and after each subsequent use, wash Grill
thoroughly in warm sudsy water, rinse, and dry. Do not immerse
