CARE AND CLEANING
IMPORTANT: Always allow the unit to cool completely before cleaning!
1. When finished cooking, unplug the unit from the outlet and remove both the Grill Probe and
Griddle Control before cleaning.
2. Slide out the removable Grease Tray and pour off grease into a disposable cup or can. The
Grease Tray is dishwasher-safe or it may be washed by hand in soapy water.
3. You may clean the cooking surfaces by wiping them with a wet sponge or cloth and dish
detergent. Or, separate the 2 sides — open the unit into the vertical position, tilt the Griddle
forward (toward you), slide it as far to the left as possible and lift out the right side to free
the pin from the hinge. Once separated, you can submerge and wash each part in a sink of
soapy water. The Grill and Griddle are not dishwasher-safe.
4. To remove cooked-on food, use a plastic bristle brush or polyester or nylon mesh pad. Do not
use steel wool pads or other harsh, abrasive cleaners on the cooking surfaces as they may
damage the non-stick coating. Never spray or apply cleaners directly onto the Grill.
5. Be sure to clean the handles after each use. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth.
