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
inserted into the center of the food to test for doneness. (Be careful not to touch
the grill plates.) If the food needs longer cooking, check periodically to avoid
overcooking the food.

GRILLING TIPS
• To prevent heat loss and promote even cooking, do not open the grill cover
frequently while cooking.
• Do not overfill grill; it will hold 2 to 4 servings comfortably.
• When first cooking a particular food, check for doneness several minutes
before suggested time; if necessary, adjust timer using control button.
• If cooking more than one piece 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 before grilling or marinate foods
before cooking.
Important: Use only silicone, heatproof plastic and wooden utensils when
cooking on the grill. Silicone utensils are especially good because they do
not discolor or melt with the high temperature.
Care and Cleaning
This appliance contains no user-serviceable parts. Refer service to qualified
service personnel.
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: heating elements will continue 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. Wipe plates dry with a paper towel or sponge to avoid grease
dripping onto your counter when plates are removed.
3. Remove plates as instructed in HOW TO USE
(see illustrations B and C)
.
To clean cooking plates, wash in warm, soapy water; dry thoroughly with
a paper towel.
4. Empty drip tray and wash in warm, soapy water; dry thoroughly with a
paper towel.
5. Reinstall cooking plates
(see illustrations B and C)
, making sure they are
securely attached to grill body.
Note:
If washing the plates in a dishwasher, dishwasher detergent may cause
oxidation on uncoated side of grill plate. This is not harmful.
6. To remove stubborn buildup, use a nylon or nonmetallic scrubbing pad
to clean the cooking 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.
