Preparing the grill
1. Rotate heating elements (5) up and remove the
briquette basket (3) stored inside the grill housing (1).
2. Place the drip tray (2) in the bottom of the grill
housing (1). (Drip tray is packaged in the large
cardboard box that was on top of the appliance.)
Align the embosses of the drip tray (2) with the
depressions on the bottom of the grill housing (1).
3. Place the briquette basket (3) in the grill housing (1).
5. Fold both grill heating elements (5) down. The grill
heating elements must lie flat. Supports should rest
inside of side notches.
6. Install the grill grates (6). Ensure grates are seated
level inside the grill housing (1). The grates should be
washed prior to use.
Operating the grill

WARNING
•
To avoid risk of injury,
NEVER
operate grill without the
grates or griddle plate accessory installed.
•
NEVER
leave grill unattended while cooking.
•
Observe caution with oils and fats. Overheated oils
and fats can easily cause fires.
•
DO NOT
use wood chips, lava rocks, or charcoal
briquettes. Only use recommended ceramic
briquettes (PABRICKBKN).
•
DO NOT
use dishes, pans, pots, or other cookware on
the grill.
•
NEVER
use aluminum foil to cover the grates or to line
the grill. It can damage the grill and cause a fire
hazard if heat is trapped under it.
•
Check drip tray before each use. Too much grease in
the tray may cause a fire hazard.
•
If flames appear, grease should be cleaned from
grates, drip tray, briquette basket and other surfaces.
•
Grease build up encourages flame and smoke
development while cooking.
•
Ceramic briquettes must be replaced when they
begin to turn black. This means that they are
saturated with fat and may smoke heavily during
operation or the fat may catch fire.

WARNING: TO AVOID RISK OF BURNS
•
Use proper utensils with long handles that allow the
chef plenty of clearance from the heat and potential
flare ups.
•
After each use, remove grease buildup from the grill
surfaces and the trays below the grill to avoid risk of
fire. Ventilation hoods should also be cleaned
frequently as needed and as recommended by the
Use and Care Guide, as well as surrounding surfaces.
•
Keep a fire extinguisher nearby and accessible.

CAUTION
Clean the grill after each use. Allow the appliance to cool
before cleaning.
1. Start overhead ventilation system 10 minutes prior to
grilling to begin air movement.
2. For best results, allow the grill grates to preheat
before placing food on them. Press and turn the knob
to the desired temperature setting.
3. During the initial use, heat the grill for about 10
minutes to eliminate manufacturing residues and
smells.
