;&G;R GRIDDLE DOES NOT GET HOT
0 The grill/griddle element is not plugged into the
well receptacle firmly and is not making complete
contact. See pages 13 and 17.
0 When griddling use a LO blower setting.
EXCESSIVE SMOKE, OR VENT SYSTEM IS
NOT CAPTURING THE SMOKE
0 The vent fan is not turned on (when using front
controlsI.
0 Too much cross ventilation in the room draws
smoke away from the cooktop before the vent
system can eliminate it.
0 The grill was not cleaned properly the last time it
was used and accumulated grease is causing ex-
cessive smoke. See page 14 on cleaning the grill
module.
0 Excessive smoke is being created because excess
fat was not trimmed from the meat and is dripping
on the grill element. See page 13.
0 The grease filter is not clean.
FOOD STICKS TO THE GRILL OR GRIDDLE
0
The grill or griddle was not preconditioned before
the first use. See page 13 or 17.
0
Food is being cooked on too high a heat setting.
0
The non-stick coating has been damaged with
sharp utensils or the use of abrasive cleaners.
0
Leaving the griddle on HI setting for more than 10
minutes without food can damage the non-stick
coating and cause sticking.
0
The grill grid or griddle was not greased before
cooking.
THERE IS GREASE BELOW THE RANGE
0
The grease jar is full and has overflowed. You
should check the jar each time you use the grill or
griddle and empty or replace it often. See page 8.
FOOD GETS BURNED OR TOO WELL DONE
ON THE GRILL OR ROTISSERIE
0
Excessive fat should be trimmed from the edges
of meat. As the food cooks, fat melts and drips on
the element causing little bursts of flame. Ex-
cessive flame-up causes food to burn or get too
well done.
0
Salting food while it is cooking draws natural
juices out of the food and tends to dry the food.
0
Always use tongs to handle or turn food on the
grill. Piercing food with a fork causes juices to be
lost and dries the food.

EXPECTED

manual for general guidelines. Remember, you
may need to make cooking time and/or heat set-
ting adjustments for the food you are cooking.
Food temperature, thickness and moisture con-
tent
all affect cooking time and heat settings.
