Grill Tips

Do not leave the grill unattended while in use.

Be sure to preheat according to the cooking guide.

Make sure the grease collector jar and the reflector pan are clean and in place before using the grill.

Remove grease from the grease collector jar after each use to avoid spillovers.

The grates should be oiled or sprayed with a non- stick coating before cooking to prevent sticking. Remove the grate before spraying, and spray only while cool. Spraying directly onto a hot grill may cause a fire.

Trim fat from meats before placing on the grill. This will reduce smoking and lessen grease buildup in the grease collector jar.

When cooking foods of various sizes and thicknesses, start larger or thicker pieces first, and quicker-cooking, smaller pieces later. Press meat lightly to lie flat on the grill: slash the fat on the edges of steaks and chops to prevent curling; break the joints of split chickens so they will lie flat.

Allow space between foods when placing them on the grill. Air needs to circulate around the food for best cooking results.

Occasionally rearrange foods on the grill, to prevent sticking and provide better browning.

Season meats after cooking rather than before— salt can draw out juices and dry out meat. Use tongs to turn and rearrange meats on the grill; forks will pierce the meat and release juices.

If your house has low voltage, foods may be lighter brown than expected. A longer preheating and grill time may be necessary to achieve the desired results.

The blower comes on automatically when the grill is turned on and turns off automatically when the grill is turned off.

Questions and Answers

Q. I followed the cooking times suggested in

the Grill Cooking Guide but my foods were not done properly. Is there something wrong with my grill?

A. Probably not. Suggested cooking times should be used only as a general guide. Variables in food can change cooking times required.

Q. How can I keep barbecued meats from developing an unattractive burned look and taste?

A. Sauces containing sugar will often burn if used during the entire cooking time. If your favorite sauce contains sugar, try adding it only during the last 15 to 20 minutes of cooking time for best results.

Q. Foods cooked on my grill are not browning as much as I would like. What could cause this?

A. A longer preheating and grill time may be necessary to achieve the desired results.

Q. Can my grill be switched to the other side of the cooktop where it would be more convenient for me?

A. Your interchangeable cooktop modules can be used on either the right or the left side of the cooktop (on some models). When inserting or removing a module, take care not to force the connection or exert undue pressure which could damage the electrical contacts.

Q. When cooking many individual foods, what can I do to insure that foods will cook evenly?

A. When cooking foods of various sizes and thicknesses, start larger or thicker pieces first and add quicker-cooking, smaller pieces later. Press the meat lightly to lie flat on the grill. Slash the fat on the edges of steaks and chops to prevent curling. Break the joints of split chickens so they will lie flat.

Q. My grilled meats sometimes come out drier than they should. What can I do to help prevent this?

A. Season meats after cooking rather than before— salt can draw out juices and dry out meat. Use tongs to turn and rearrange meats on the grill; forks will pierce the meat and release juices.
