Manual

Before the first use, wash your new grill grates in hot soapy water, rinse and dry. Then

"season" the surface by wiping on a thin coating of cooking oil. Remove excess oil

by wiping again with another paper towel, This procedure should be repeated when

either: a) cleaning in the dishwasher since the detergent may remove seasoning or

b) anytime a sugar-based marinade (for example, barbecue sauce) is going to be

used.

Preheat the grill on Hi for 5 minutes. Preheating improves the flavor and appearance

of meats and quickly sears the meat to help retain the juices. The heating element

should glow a bright cherry red.

Use nonmetallic spatulas or utensils to prevent damaging the Excalibur ®nonstick

grill grate finish.

Excessive amounts of fat should be trimmed from meats. Only a normal amount is

necessary to produce the smoke needed for that smoked, "outdoor" flavor. Excessive

fat can create cleaning and flare-up problems.

Allowing excessive amounts of grease or drippings to constantly flame voids the

warranty on the grill grates. Excessive flare-ups indicate that either the grill interior

needs to be cleaned or that excessive amounts of fat are in the meat or the meat was

not properly trimmed.

Grease drippings will occasionally ignite to produce harmless puffs of flame for a

second or two. This is a normal part of the cooking process.

• NEVER LEAVE GRILL UNATTENDED DURING GRILL OPERATION.

Should excess grease cause sustained flare-ups

1. Turn on the fan manually.

2. Immediately turn controls to OFF.

3. Remove meat from grill.
