SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY

A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards
resulting from entanglement or tripping over a longer cord. An
extension cord may be used with care; however, be sure the marked
electrical rating is at least as great as the electrical rating of this
appliance. The extension cord should be positioned such that it does not
drape over the counter or table top where it can be pulled on by
children or tripped over. The electrical rating of this appliance is listed on
the bottom panel of the unit.

This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the
other). As a safety feature, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only
one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it
still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat
this safety feature

Before Your First Use

The grill/griddle is designed for indoor use only. Carefully unpack the
grill and remove all packaging materials. To remove any dust that may
have accumulated during packaging, wipe the cooking surface and base
with a clean, damp cloth. Dry thoroughly. Do not use harsh or abrasive
cleaners on any part of the grill.

Warning: Do not immerse the cord or plug in water or other liquid. Do
not use metal scouring pads on any part of the appliance.

Place the grill on a dry, stable surface away from an open flame or hot
burners. This appliance requires 1800 watts and should be the only
appliance operating on the circuit. Plug the grill into a 120 volt 60 Hz AC
only outlet.

Before using, condition the nonstick surface. Spread 2 teaspoons of
vegetable oil with a soft cloth or folded paper towel over the entire grill
and griddle cooking surfaces. Assemble grill and set temperature to
250°. When the grill has reached 250°, turn off and cool completely.
The grill is now ready to use.

Grilling Tips

1 The nonstick cooking surface is metal utensil safe. However care

should be taken when using metal utensils with this product. Only
use the enclosed scaper to clean the griddle

2 Be careful not to transfer germs from raw meat to cooked meat. Use

separate utensils and platters for raw and cooked meat or wash
platter used for raw meat before placing cooked meat on it.

3 Use a long-handled brush for basting foods during grilling.

4 Tender meat cuts, such as sirloin and tenderloin, are generally

more suitable for grilling than less-tender meat cuts, such as round
or rump.

5 Many less-tender meat cuts can be grilled, but they benefit from the

tenderizing effects of marinating in an acid-based wet marinade.

6 A marinade is a seasoned mixture (wet or dry) in which foods are

soaked in order to absorb flavor and/or become more tender. The
flavor grows stronger the longer the marinade is left on the food
before cooking. The amount of time usually ranges from 1 hour
to 24 hours.

A wet marinade usually consists of oil (vegetable or olive) to give
moisture, an acid (lemon juice, vinegar, wine, tomatoes or yogurt)
to tenderize, and flavorings (herbs and spices) to enhance or
add flavor.

A dry marinade, or spice rub, is a mixture of herbs, spices and salt
that is rubbed onto the food after the food has been lightly brushed
with vegetable oil. Generally, use 1 to 2 tablespoons dry marinade
per pound of meat.

7 Always marinate in a tightly covered nonmetal dish, and turn the

food occasionally. Be sure to refrigerate all meats while marinating.
Heavy plastic bags are also convenient for marinating – add the food
and marinade, then tightly seal the bag. Turn the bag now and then
to redistribute the marinade.

8 If leftover wet marinade is to be used as a sauce with the cooked

food, be sure to place it in a small pan and heat it to a rolling boil
before serving to eliminate any bacterial growth.

9 Grease from high fat foods, such as bacon or sausage, may splatter

on countertop. Protect countertop as necessary.

10 When grilling fish, use a large flat spatula or turner to turn the fish.

Using Your Electric

Grill /Griddle

Place the appliance on a flat, level surface, such as a countertop or table.
Place the cooking surface onto the base with either the grill or griddle
surface up, according to your recipe.

Insert power point into the power point holder on the grill/griddle plate.
Plug the cord into a 120 volt 60 Hz AC only outlet.

When the grill/griddle is on, the red READY light will come on. This light
is in the shape of an arrow, located on the power point. When the light
goes out, the grill or griddle surface is preheated to the selected
temperature. This light will cycle on and off during cooking, indicating
that the surface temperature is being maintained.

Important: Your grill/griddle comes with a patented safety feature which
will not allow you to plug the temperature probe in unless the drp pan is
properly in place. Never Try To Defeat This Feature.

Care and Cleaning

Before cleaning, be sure to unplug the cord from the outlet. Remove the
power point from the cooking surface. If necessary, wipe the cord with a
damp cloth.

Caution: Do not immerse the cord in water or other liquid.

Allow the appliance to cool completely before cleaning.The cooking

plate and base can be placed in the bottom rack of the dishwasher, or
washed by hand. The drip tray should be hand washed only in warm
soapy water. Dry the drip pan completety when finished.Do not put hot

cooking surface in cold water.

Be sure to always wash both the grill and griddle surfaces after each use
to remove any grease that may have accumulated.

Do not use scouring pads or harsh cleaners on either the cooking
surface or base. If necessary, use a nylon bristle brush or plastic
scrubbing pad.

Do not let the cooking surface or base soak overnight. This could
damage the nonstick coating.
