CLEANING YOUR HEALTH GRILL
1. After using the grill, allow it to cool completely before cleaning.
2. Remove the heat control. Lift the grill out of the base using the handles.
Carefully lift the drip pan out of the base. Dispose of any liquid in the drip pan.
3. Wash the base, drip pan, cover, and grill in
warm, soapy water using a non-metal cleaning
pad. Do not use metal scouring pads or harsh
scouring powders. A soft bristled brush may be
used to clean the underside of the grill. After
washing, rinse and dry. Be careful not to drop
the cover. The drip pan, grill, and cover may be
cleaned in an automatic dishwasher. Position
the pieces in the dishwasher so they do not touch
one another or other objects being washed. DO NOT PUT THE PLASTIC
BASE IN THE DISHWASHER, AS WARPAGE WILL OCCUR.
GRILLING TIPS
Always use the grill on a dry, level, heat-resistant surface with the drip pan and
grill securely positioned in base.
Some smoke and/or odor may occur upon heating due to the release of oils –
this is normal.
Always place water in the drip pan to the maximum water level line to help
reduce smoking and make clean up easier.
Always use hot pads when handling the grill as handles and grill become hot
during use.
Begin grilling at the recommended heat setting. Adjust the heat setting if needed
during cooking.
The heat control dial can be set at “LO”, “MED”, “HI” or in between for grilling or
at “WARM” for serving. Approximate temperatures of each setting are “WARM”
(180°F), “LO” (250°F), “MED” (325°F) and “HI” (375°F).
Use the solid end of the grill to fry eggs, hash browns, grill pancakes, French
toast, sandwiches, vegetables, or warm buns. Brush vegetables with olive oil or
vegetable oil for an attractive appearance.
Tender cuts of meat are best for grilling; to tenderize less tender cuts of meat,
marinate before grilling.
Fish and seafood may be basted with melted butter or a flavored butter during
grilling.
For best results, use tongs to turn meats to avoid piercing the skin. Use a wide
spatula to turn fish, steaks, hamburgers, etc.
If using a barbecue sauce, baste meat during the last 5 minutes of grilling.
