not touching the bone or grill plates.

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 plate.) 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.

USING ThE LOCKING hINGE POISITION
This feature keeps upper grill plate above food on lower grill plate.
1. This grill has a unique hinge that allows the grill cover to adjust to the thickness of food
being grilled. This allows for even melting of cheese on top of hot cooked hamburgers.
2. If the grill is not hot, preheat grill following directions under PREHEATING THE GRILL.
3. Lift handle of the grill cover up and forward into the locking position of float
& lock hinge.
4. Lower the grill cover into the BROILING position above
the food (J).
5. Allow food to cook for desired time.
6. For even browning and cooking, when grilling more than
one sandwich or piece of meat, it is important that the
J
thickness of each be about the same.

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 the On/Off (I/O) switch is
pressed or the appliance is unplugged.
2. Place drip tray under front of grill (see illustration D). 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 grill
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 grill plates (see illustrations B and C), making sure they are securely attached
to grill body.
Note: Removable grill plates are also dishwasher-safe. If washing grill plates in a
dishwasher, wipe uncoated side with a dry towel to prevent discoloration. Dishwasher
detergent may cause oxidation on uncoated side of grill plate. This is not harmful and can
be wiped off with a damp towel.
6. To remove stubborn buildup, use a nylon or nonmetallic scrubbing pad to clean the grill
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.
7. To clean the grill cover, wipe with a warm, wet sponge and dry with a soft, dry cloth.
Important: Do not immerse body of grill in water or any other liquid.
8. Any servicing requiring disassembly other than the above cleaning must be preformed
by a qualified electrician.
