INSTRUCTIONS AND RECIPES
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
A short power supply cord (or cord set) is provided to reduce the
risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer
cord. Longer cord sets or extension cords may be used if care is
properly exercised in their use.
If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating should
be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance. The
longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the
countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or
tripped over.
Connect the power supply cord to a polarized outlet only. As a
safety feature, this appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is
wider than the other). This plug will only fi t in a polarized outlet
one way. If the plug does not fi t fully in the outlet, reverse the plug.
If it still does not fi t, contact a qualifi ed electrician. Do not attempt
to defeat this safety feature.
Before using for the fi rst time, become familiar with the Grill-
n-Lite™ Indoor Electric Grill, Fig. A. Wash Grill and drip pan
according to “Care and Cleaning” instructions, page 2.
1. Set Grill on a fl at, dry countertop.
2. Insert drip pan. Note: Each handle assembly has a built-in drip
pan guide (Fig. B) which holds the drip pan (Fig. C) in its proper
position. These guides are located below the grilling surface. To
insert the drip pan, position it so it is resting on both drip pan
guides, and slide the drip pan under the Grill. When the notches
under the drip pan rim meet with the ridges on the drip pan guide,
the drip pan will drop into the correct location. Always insert or
remove the drip pan from the side closest to you.
Never operate Grill without the drip pan in place as doing so
could damage the countertop.
3. Insert the Control Master
®
heat control into the Grill so the two
electrical pins on the Grill are fully inserted into the heat control.
4. Plug cord into a polarized outlet, and turn Control Master
®
heat control to proper temperature (see page 2 for cooking
temperatures). Preheat Grill for 10 minutes. The recommended
setting for most grilling is 400°. The light on the control will
remain on at that setting. At the other recommended and “keep
warm” settings, the light usually will cycle on and off. Cycling at
lower temperatures is normal.
5.Prepare food, place food on Grill, and cook according to grilling
time chart (page 2) or recipe (pages 3-5).
NOTE: This Grill features a DiamondCoat
®
deluxe nonstick
fi nish for stick-free cooking. To help protect this special
surface, use nylon, plastic, or wooden utensils. Using metal
utensils or cutting foods on the cooking surface may damage
the nonstick fi nish.
