DIGITAL THERMOMETER / THERMOSTAT
Your electr ic grill comes with a digital ther mometer/thermostat
for temperature control, oven and meat probe temperature
monitoring, and timed cooking. Pressing the power button
on the thermometer will turn on the grill. Once the grill is
turned on, the cooking element immediately begins to
heat. Preheating of the grill is required for it to reach
the desired cooking temperature. Set the desired
temperature as instructed below.
The thermometer will automatically shut off 2 hours from
the time the power button is pressed.
For optimal performance, keep the oven lid closed during
cooking. This will maintain the cooking temperature.
(Frequently opening or leaving the lid open during cooking
will result in greater temperature loss.)
The thermometer is located on the left side of the control
panel. The actual grill temperature will be maintained within
a 20 degree (Fahrenheit) differential of the set temperature.
Plug in the meat probe on the left side of the control panel
as shown in Fig. 14-1.
FOR BEST PERFORMANCE, GENTLY PRESS THE
BUTTONS. When turned on, accurate temperature readings
will begin after the thermometer has initialized. When turned
off, allow 5 seconds prior to turning back on.

CARE & CLEANING
APPLIANCE MUST BE COMPLETELY COOL WHEN CLEANING. DO NOT
SPRAY ANY CLEANER OR LIQUIDS ON THE APPLIANCE WHEN HOT.
Any other servicing should be performed by a qualifi ed professional service
technician.
The appliance must be cleaned as often as once a month (depending on
use) to prevent grease build-up and other food deposits.
A clean and well maintained appliance prevents the risk of grease fi res.
A clean and well maintained appliance prevents the risk of grease fi res.
Reference the IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS section.
Reference the GRILL MAINTENANCE AND SAFETY section.
Fig. 19-1 Wipe with grain
COOKING GRIDS
Before and after each use, clean the cooking grids with a Fire Magic Grill Brush (sold separately). Before initial use and
periodically, it is suggested that the cooking grids be washed with a mild soap and warm water solution.
INTERIOR
Periodically clean the drip tray and inner liners of all food/grease deposits to reduce the chance of fi re and ensure proper operation.
The drip tray and inner liners are removable for hand or dishwasher cleaning. Reference the INSTALLATION section for inner liner
details. The cooking element does not need cleaning.
The inside of the appliance may be cleaned periodically with oven cleaner if desired. Follow the oven cleaner instructions for
proper use.
Be careful not to get oven cleaner on the outside surface of the appliance as it can permanently damage the fi nish.
Wipe with grain
EXTERIOR
Stainless steel surfaces when exposed to temperatures produced by the grilling process will change color. The stainless steel
will change color from silver to brown and blue. This can be removed by using stainless steel cleaner.
Clean your appliance by fi rst using stainless steel grill cleaner to remove grease and dirt. Always wipe with the grain (See
Fig. 19-1). Next, apply stainless steel polish and wipe down using polish wipes to restore the stainless steel color.
If your appliance is installed in a seaside (salt air) or poolside (chlorine) location, it will be more susceptible to corrosion and
must be maintained/cleaned more frequently. Do not store chemicals (such as chlorine or fertilizer) near your stainless steel
appliance.
Due to the nature of stainless steel, surface iron oxide deposits may appear. Do not be alarmed – these deposits are removable
with stainless steel cleaner through prompt and periodic maintenance. If not attended to promptly, permanent pitting may occur.
By following these recommendations, you will enjoy the beauty and convenience of your appliance for many years to come.
PROTECTING YOUR APPLIANCE FROM THE WEATHER
An optional cover will protect your appliance when not in use. Allow to
cool before covering. Please specify the model number and serial number
of your appliance when ordering a cover.

Note: Secure any disconnected wires (coming from
the inside of the unit) to prevent them from
