USING THE GRILL
• Before the first use, wash 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 with 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.
• Use nonmetallic spatulas or utensils to
prevent damaging the 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 flare-up 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.
SEALED BURNER
CARTRIDGES
TO INSTALL SEALED BURNER
CARTRIDGE:
1. Be sure control knobs are turned OFF.
2. Clean basin of any grease
accumulation. (See page 9 for cleaning
recommendations.)
3. With the back raised, position the burner
cartridge with the mixer tube openings
and ignitor rods toward the orifices
and terminal receptacle. Slide the
cartridge until the tubes and ignitors
start to engage, then lower the cartridge
so that it rests on the cooktop surface.
Gently slide forward to fully engage.
TO REMOVE SEALED BURNER
CARTRIDGE:
1. Control knobs should be in the OFF
position and the cooktop should be
cool.
2. Lift up the rear edge of the cartridge
until the bottom of the cartridge clears
the basin. (Lifting the cartridge too
high while still engaged could damage
the ignitor rods and mixer tubes.)
3. To disengage the cartridge, hold by the
sides and pull away from the terminal
receptacle and orifices. Lift out when
fully unplugged.
4. Do not stack cartridges where they
may fall or be damaged.
NOTE: Optional Sealed Burner
Cartridge, model JGA8100, can replace
the grill burner assembly.
GRILL INSTALLATION
The grill assembly consists of two grill
grates and a grill burner. Only install the
grill on the LEFT SIDE of your cooktop.
TO INSTALL GRILL:
1. Before installing grill components, be
sure controls knobs are in the OFF
position.
2. Position the grill burner with mixer
tubes and ignitor rod toward the orifices
and terminal receptacle. Slide the
burner until the tubes and ignitor
engage, then lower the burner until it
rests on the mounting pins.
3. Place the grill grates on top of the
cooktop.
NOTE: Before using the grill for the
first time, heat the grill burner to remove
the protective shipping coating. Heat
the grill burner on Hi for 10 minutes
and use the vent system to remove any
additional smoke during cooling.
TO REMOVE GRILL:
1. Be sure control knobs are in the OFF
position and the grill components are
cool.
2. Remove grill grates.
3. Lift the rear of the burner up slightly.
Slide the burner away from the orifices
and terminal receptacle.
