Removing the Grill Module

When removing the parts of the grill module to clean, be sure all switches

are in the OFF position and the module is cool. Remove the grill grate and

then slide the heating element toward the center of the cooktop until it is

unplugged. Remove the reflector pan. Empty grease collector jar when cool.

Be sure to replace the jar.

How to Set the Grill Controls

The control knob must be

pushed in to turn; this prevents

the heating element from being

turned on accidentally. Push the

knob in only when it is in the OFF

position. When the knob is in any

other position, it can be turned

without pushing it in.

Front and rear sections of the

grill heating element are

controlled separately. Heat only

half the grill surface for cooking

small portions or set each half at a

different temperature for cooking

different types of foods.

Push in the control knob depending

on which side of the cooktop grill

module is used. The right front

and right rear control knobs

operate the grill when the module

is on the right side (on some

models). The left front and left

rear control knobs operate the grill

when the grill module is on the left

side of the cooktop.

Automatic Blower Operation

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

automatically when the grill is turned off.

What to Do If a Flame-Up Occurs

Grilling fat or juicy foods may cause flame-ups.

You should never leave the kitchen while using the

grill. It’s important to control flame-ups so they do

not get out of hand.

TO CONTROL FLAME-UPS

Turn down the heat setting to LO rather than OFF.

This keeps the downdraft vent blower on. Or, turn the

vent to ON, then turn the grill OFF.

Using a long-handled utensil, carefully remove the

food from the grill.

These steps should control the flame until it eventually

goes out. If it does not, cover the entire grill module

with a cookie sheet or the lid from a large roasting

pan. Use a pot holder to remove this later because it

will be hot.

Never use water on a grease fire. Water will spread

the flames.

NOTE: It is recommended that you have a dry

chemical, foam or Halon type fire extinguisher where

you can easily reach it in case of a cooking fire.
