control from wall outlet then from appliance. Allow unit to cool to a
comfortable temperature before removing drip pan or cleaning the Grill.

Helpful Hints

• 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
• 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.
