air dry.Do not apply a caustic grill/oven cleaner to painted

surfaces.

A Donot use citrisot,abrasive cleaners, degreasersor a
concentrated grillcleaner on plastic parts. Damage to and
failure of partscan result.

•Porcelain surfaces: Because of glass-like composition, most
residuecan bewiped away with baking soda/water solution or

specially formulated cleaner. Usenonabrasive scouring powder
for stubborn stains.

cleaner and warm soapy water. Wipe dry with a soft
nonabrasive cloth.

•Stainless steel surfaces: Tomaintain your grill's high quality

appearance, wash with mild detergent and warmsoapy water

the burner tube and out the burner ports. Check each
port to makesure air comes out each hole.

7. Wire brush entire outer surface of burner to remove food

residue and dirt.

8. Clean any blocked ports with a stiff wire such as an open

paper clip.

9. Check burner fordamage, due to normal wear and corrosion

some holes may become enlarged. If any large cracksor
holes are found replace burner.

Indirect Cooking

Poultry and largecuts of meat cook slowly to perfectionon the
grill by indirect heat. The heat from selected burnerscirculates
gently throughout the grill, cooking meat or poultry without the

touch of a direct flame. This method greatly reduces flare-ups
when cooking extra fatty cuts because there is no direct flame to
ignite the fats and juices that dripduring cooking.

1Burner Cooking

Cook with direct or indirect heat.

Best for smaller meals or foods.

Consumes less fuel.

Indirect Cooking Instructions

• Always cookwith the lid closed.

• Due to weather conditions,cooking times may vary. During

cold and windy conditions the temperature setting mayneed

to be increased to insure sufficient cooking temperatures

2 Burner Cooking

Great indirect cooking on low.

Produces slow, even heating.

Ideal for slow roasting and baking.

Food Safety
Food safety isa very important part of enjoying the outdoor

cooking experience. To keep foodsafe from harmful bacteria,
follow these four basic steps:

Clean: Washhands, utensils, and surfaces with hot soapy water

beforeand after handling raw meat and poultry.

Separate: Separate raw meats andpoultry from ready-to-eat

foods to avoid cross contamination. Use a clean platter and
utensils when removingcooked foods.

Cook: Cook meatand poultrythoroughly to kill bacteria. Usea

thermometer to ensure proper internal food temperatures.

Chill: Refrigerate prepared foodsand leftovers promptly.
For more information call: USDA Meatand Poultry Hotlineat

1-800-535-4555 (in Washington, DC [phone], 10:00 am-
4:00 pm EST).

How To Tell If Meat Is Grilled Thoroughly

• Meat and poultry cooked on a grill often brownsvery fast onthe
outside. Use a meat thermometer to be sure food has reached

a safeinternal temperature, and cutinto food to check for
visual signsof doneness.

• Whole poultry should reach 165° F.Juices should run clear and
flesh should not be pink.

• Hamburgers madeof any ground meator poultry should reach

160° F, and bebrown in the middle with no pinkjuices. Beef,

veal and lamb steaks, roasts and chops can be cooked to 145°
F.All cuts of pork should reach 160° F.

• NEVER partially grill meat or poultry and finish cookinglater.
Cook food completely to destroy harmfulbacteria.

• When reheating takeout foods orfully cooked meats like hot
dogs, grillto 165° F,or until steaming hot.

WARNING: Toensure that it is safe to eat, food must be cooked
to the minimum internal temperatures listed in the table below.
