Other Safety Information

This is a grounded appliance and therefore has a 3-prong plug. If your outlets are not grounded, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature. A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting from entanglement or tripping over a longer cord.

Do not operate this high-wattage appliance on the same electrical circuit as another high-wattage appliance.

IMPORTANT:The use of an extension cord is not recommended.

If an extension cord must be used, make sure it is a CSA approved, 16 AWG (gauge), 3-wire (grounded) type, and is as short as possible (long cords coiled up can overheat). Do not use the cord for more than one appliance at a time.

The extension cord should be positioned such that it does not drape over the counter or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over.

Always unplug your barbecue grill from the power outlet when not in use.

Using Your Electric Barbecue Grill

1.FIRST TIME USE: Before using your grill for the first time, remove all packing material.Wash grill plate, drip tray, base and spatter guard in hot, soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly.You may wish to lightly spray the grill plate with a cooking spray to season it before first use.

2.Place your barbecue grill on a flat, level surface, such as a counter top. Place the drip tray securely into the base of the unit (the feet of the drip tray should fit into the four indentations on the base). For smokefree grilling, pour 1 1/2 cups of water into drip tray prior to heating the grill. Do not pour water directly onto the hot grill plate.

3.Set the grill plate on top of the drip tray.The feet of the grill plate should fit into the four indentations of the drip tray.

4.To use the spatter guard, slide the L-shaped feet of the spatter guard into the vertical slots on the base of the grill.

5.Insert the thermostat control into the grill plate receptacle. Plug the unit into a 120 V 60 Hz power outlet.

6.Once the thermostat dial is turned from the ???0??? OFF position, the pilot light will come on.

7.Preheat the grill for approximately 10 minutes at the desired setting before using.

FIRST TIME USE: Most heating appliances produce an odor and/or smoke when used for the first time.This is normal. Set the thermostat control to 230?? C. Heat at this temperature for 10 minutes.The odor should disap- pear after this initial preheating.

8.After cooking, set the thermostat control to ???0??? OFF. Unplug unit from power outlet.

9.Let grill cool. Remove the thermostat control from the grill plate. Do not immerse the thermostat control, cord, or plug in water or any other liquid. Wipe with a slightly damp cloth if necessary. Carefully dispose of water and grease.

Grilling Guide

* Use a meat thermometer to check temperature.

Cooking times are averages for food at refrigerator temperature and will vary depending on the thickness of the food and individual preferences. Most foods can be grilled at maximum temperature, however you may wish to reduce the temperature for certain items.

Helpful Hints

???Prior to grilling vegetables, fish or lean meat, lightly spray grill plate with a cooking spray.

???Tender cuts of meat are generally more suitable for grilling.

???Less tender cuts of meat will become more tender when marinated in the refrigerator for several hours or overnight.

???Trim visible fat before grilling.

???Use non-metallic utensils to prevent damage to the grill???s non-stick coating.

??? When turning meat, do not pierce with a fork. Use tongs to turn instead.

???Turn fish and meat only once - more often is unnecessary and dries out your food.

??? When turning fish, use a large flat spatula for support.

???When cooking fatty foods, attach the spatter guard.

???Line the drip tray with foil (shiny side up) for easy clean-up.
