Jenn-Air CVG4100 Cooktop User 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: 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.
Use nonmetallic spatulas or utensils to prevent damaging the Excalibur ®nonstick
grill grate finish.
Preheat the grill on Hi for 5 or 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 grates. Excessive flare-ups indicate that eitherthe 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 UNA'I-rENDED DURING GRILL OPERATION.
Should sustained flare-up occur:
1. Turn on FAN manually.
2. ImmediatelyturngrillcontrolknobstoOFF position.
3. Removemeat from grill.
