What To Do if a Flame-Up Occurs
Grilling
fat or juicy foods
may cause flame-ups.
You
should
never leave
the kitchen
while using the grill.
It's important
to control
flame-ups
so they do not get
out of hand.
TO CONTROL
FLAME-UPS
Turn down
the heat setting
to LO rather
than OFF.
This keeps the downdraft
vent blower
on, Or, turn the
vent to ON, then turn the grill OFF.
Using
a long-handled
utensil,
carefully
remove
the
food from the grill.
These steps should control the flame until it eventual-
ly goes out. If it does
not, cover the entire grill mod-
ule with a cookie sheet or the lid from a large roasting
pan. Use a pot holder to remove
this later because
it
will be hot.
Do not use the module cover to smother
fire. Paint will
be damaged.
NEVER USE WATER
ON A GREASE
FIRE.
GragtTips
Do not leave the grill unattended
while
in use.
o Be sure to preheat
according
to the cooking
guide.
o Make sure the grease
collector
jar and the reflector
pan are clean and in place before using the grill.
o Remove
grease
from the grease
collector
jar after
each use to avoid spillovers.
Grates should
be oiled or sprayed
with a non-stick
coating
before
cooking
to prevent
sticking.
Remove
the grate before spraying,
and spray only while cool.
Spraying
directly
onto a hot grill may cause a fire.
o Trim fat from meats before
placing
on the grill. This
will reduce smoking
and lessen grease buildup in the
grease
collector
jar.
o When cooking
foods of various
sizes and thickness-
es, start larger or thicker
pieces
first, and quicker-
cooking
smaller
pieces later. Press meat lightly to lie
flat on the grill: slash the fat on the edges
of steaks
and chops to prevent curling;
break the joints of split
chickens
so they will lie flat.
o Allow
space between
foods
when placing
them on
the grill. Air needs
to circulate
around
the food for
best cooking
results.
o Occasionally
rearrange
foods on the grill, to prevent
sticking
and provide
better browning.
o Season
meats after cooking
rather than before--salt
can dry out juices
and dry out meat.
Use tongs to
turn
and
rearrange
meats
on the
grill;
forks
will
pierce the meat and release juices.
o If your house has low voltage,
foods may be lighter
brown
than expected.
A longer
preheating
and grill
time
may
be necessary
to achieve
the
desired
results.
o The blower
comes on automatically
when the grill is
turned on and turns off automatically
when the grill is
turned off.
Questions
and Answers
Q. i followed
the cooking
times
suggested
in the
grill cooking
guide but my foods
were not done
properly.
Is there
something
wrong
with
my
grill?
A. Probably
not. Suggested
cooking
times should
be
used only as a general guide. Variables
in food can
change
cooking
times required.
Q. How can I keep
barbecued
meats
from
devel-
oping
an unattractive
burned
look and taste?
A. Sauces containing
sugar will often burn if used dur-
ing the entire
cooking
time.
If your favorite
sauce
contains
sugar, try adding it only during the last 15
to 20 minutes
of cooking
time for best results.
Q. Can
my grill be switched
to the
other
side
of
the
cooktop
where
it would
be more
conve-
nient
for me?
A_
Your
interchangeable
cooktop
modules
can
be
used on either the right or the left side of the cook-
top (on some
models).
When
inserting
or remov-
ing a module, take care not to force the connection
or exert undue pressure
which could damage
the
electrical
contacts.
