Care and Cleaning

This product contains no user serviceable parts. Refer service to qualified service personnel.

CLEANING

1. Before cleaning, unplug grill from wall outlet and allow to cool.

Important: Heating elements will continue to be ON until the On/Off (I/O) button is pressed or the appliance is unplugged.

2.Place drip tray under front of grill (see illustration D). Use plastic spatula to scrape off any excess fat and food particles left on the grill plates; runoff will drip into the drip tray. Wipe plates dry with a paper towel or sponge to avoid grease dripping onto your counter when plates are removed.

3.Remove plates as instructed in HOW TO USE (see illustrations B and C). To clean grill plates, wash in warm, soapy water; dry thoroughly with a paper towel.

4.Empty drip tray and wash in warm, soapy water; dry thoroughly with a paper towel.

5.Reinstall grill plates (see illustrations B and C), making sure they are securely attached to grill body.

Note: Removable grill plates are also dishwasher-safe. If washing grill plates in a dishwasher, wipe uncoated side with a dry towel to prevent discoloration. Dishwasher detergent may cause oxidation on uncoated side of grill plate. This is not harmful and can be wiped off with a damp towel.

6.To remove stubborn buildup, use a nylon or nonmetallic scrubbing pad to clean the grill plates.

Important: Do not use metallic scrubbing pads, steel wool or any abrasive cleaners to clean any part of your grill; use only nylon or nonmetallic scrubbing pads.

7.To clean the grill cover, wipe with a warm, wet sponge and dry with a soft, dry cloth.

Important: Do not immerse body of grill in water or any other liquid.

8.Any servicing requiring disassembly other than the above cleaning must be preformed by a qualified electrician.

Caution: Make sure to hold grill cover by the handle while cleaning to prevent accidental closing and injury.
