•Keep all combustible material such as paper, cardboard or fabric at least three feet away from grill. Do not use in wet or moist locations. Do not use near a sink or laundry area.
•When grill is used for the first time, it is normal for the heating element to give off a small amount of smoke and odor.

COOKING SUGGESTIONS
•When cooking meats, never place cooked meat on same platter used to hold raw meat unless platter has been washed.
•Poultry and kabobs should be turned often to allow for even browning and thorough cooking, especially in the case of chicken.
•Make sure all meats and fish are completely cooked before removing from grill.
•Tender meat cuts, such as sirloin and tenderloin, are generally more suitable for grilling than
•Many less tender meat cuts can be grilled successfully, especially when they have been marinated to tenderize the meat and enhance its flavor.
•Never cut foods on the grill plate.
•When grilling meats, bear in mind that flat, thin or boneless cuts grill best. The same rule should be followed when grilling vegetables - sliced tomatoes or eggplant will grill more easily than corn on the cob.
HELPFUL HINTS
•When cooking, keep all necessary ingredients conveniently at hand so food can be constantly monitored. Grill should never be left unattended while it is operating.
•Never use metal utensils in cooking, as they could damage the
•Do not leave food on the grill after it has finished cooking.
•If a large amount of food is to be cooked, divide it into smaller quantities that can be reasonably accommodated by the grill at one time. Grill each quantity separately, one after the other, until all food has been cooked. Do not overload the grill with food, as this will create smoke and reduce grilling efficiency.
