Safety Instructions Operating Instructions Care and Cleaning Troubleshooting Tips Consumer Support Grilling. ge.com Using the Grill • The vent fan will turn on automatically and operate continuously while the grill burner module is in use. • Before using the grill for the first time, wash grill grate in hot soapy water. Rinse and dry. • Precondition grate by brushing with vegetable oil or spraying with a non-stick coating such as Pam®. Do this every time before you grill. • For easier clean-up, spray grate and burner basin with a non-stick coating. • Use nonmetallic spatulas or utensils to prevent damaging the non-stick grill grate finish. • Preheat the grill on high for 5 to 10 minutes. Preheating improves the flavor and appearance of meats and quickly sears the meat to help retain the juices. • Excessive amounts of fat should be trimmed from meats. Some fat is necessary to produce the smoke needed for that smoked "outdoor" flavor. However, 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 grate. Excessive flare-ups indicate that either the grill interior needs to be cleaned, excessive amounts of fat are in the meat or that 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 the grill unattended during operation. IMPORTANT: IN CASE OF A POWER FAILURE, THE VENTILATION SYSTEM WILL NOT OPERATE. DO NOT USE THE GRILL MODULE OR GRIDDLE IF THE VENTILATION SYSTEM IS NOT OPERATIONAL. • Do not use aluminum foil inside the grill area. • Do not use charcoal or wood chips in the grill area. • Do not allow burner basin to become overloaded with grease. Clean after each use. • Do not cover grate completely with meat. Leave air space between each steak, etc., to allow proper ventilation as well as to prevent flare-ups. • Do not use cooking pots, pans, skillets, etc., on the grill grate. Should a Sustained Flare-Up Occur: 1. Use the vent control to turn the fan on. 2. Immediately turn the grill control knobs to the OFF position. 3. Remove the meat from the grill. 11
