Using
the grill
Before
you use the grill
for the
first
time:
Wash with warm, soapy water; rinse and
dry. Never use a metal scrubbing pad or
abrasive cleanser on the grill; these will
damage the nonstick surface. After clean-
ing,
lightly
wipe cooking surface with
cooking oil to prevent food from sticking.
Cooking
tips
l
Do not cover
the entire cooking surface
with meat. Leave space between the food
items to allow smoke and steam to venti-
late properly.
l
Meat
with a normally high fat content will
produce more smoke and flare-ups, but
cook faster than lean meat, Trim fat from
meat before placing on the grill to prevent
excessive smoke or flare-ups.
l
If meat begins
to cook too quickly, turn
the grill control knob to a lower setting.
l
Do not leave
grill unattet Jed.
Fire Hazard
Grease can cause excessive flare-ups.
To put out fire:
- Remove food from the grill, turn the
grill control to OFF and cover the
grill with a large metal pan.
- Make sure the vent system has been
switched to ON.
- Do not put water on a grease fire.
Product Damage Hazard
The use of metal utensils can scratch the
nonstick coating. Only nylon or plastic
utensils should be used.
