Cooking tips

Do net cover ths entire cooking surface with meat- Leave space between the food -kerrrsto allow smoke and steam to ventilate properly.

Meat with a normally high fat content will produce more smoke and flare-ups, but cook faster than lean meat. Trim fat from meat before placing on the grill to prevent excessive smoke or flare-ups.

If meat begins to cook too quickly, turn the grill control knob to a bwer setting.

Do not leave grill unattended.

NOTE: The use of metal utensils can scratch the non-stick coating. Only nylon or plastic utensils should be used. When using nylon or plastic utensils, do not leave them on the grill. They may melt-
