SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY

3-PRONG PLUG INSTRUCTIONS

For your personal safety, this appliance must be grounded. This appliance is equipped with a power supply cord having a 3-prong grounding plug. To minimize possible shock hazard, the cord must be plugged into a mating 3-prong, grounding type wall receptacle, grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70 latest edition and all local codes and ordinances. If a mating wall receptacle is not available, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the customer to have a properly grounded, 3-prong, wall receptacle installed by a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.

SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS

A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.

KNOW YOUR SMOKELESS GRILL

Grill your favorite foods without any smoke with your new Smokeless Grill. Functioning as a traditional grill but designed with a built-in fan and a silicone-sealed lid, this unit reduces smoke and visible vapors usually associated with grilling to a minimum. The non-stick coated grill quickly heats up to a maximum temperature of 460^ F, while the removable drip tray collects excess grease for healthier grilling. The removable parts allow for easy cleaning: simply place the grill plate, drip tray, collection plate or glass lid in the dishwasher!

1. Plug the power cord into an outlet. Blue LED Light (A) will blink on and off and one audible tone/beep is heard.
2. Select Power Button (B), and LED (A) will continue to blink until a temperature selection is made.
3. Select Fan Button (C). Fan will run and blue Fan LED (D) will light up and one audible tone/beep is heard.

NOTE: Fan should be kept running throughout the grilling process to prevent smoke.

1. Use Temperature buttons + and - (E) to adjust cooking temperature from 180°F to 460°F.

NOTE: You may raise or lower the cooking temperature at any time during the cooking process. To keep food warm, set the temperature between 220^ F and 250^ F.

1. Once the temperature is reached, the LED light below the Power button becomes a solid red.

2. When you are finished grilling, press the Power and Fan Buttons to shut down the Unit. Unplug the Power

BEFORE THE FIRST USE

• Remove all packing materials, labels stickers and literature.
• Wipe the appliance with a damp cloth. Make sure to clean the grill plate, drip tray, and the collection pan/water tray before use (see "Cleaning and Maintenance").
• Do not wash or submerge heating element, electric fan, or appliance base in water or any other liquid.
• It is recommended to heat the grill for about 10 minutes without anything on its surfaces. This helps to eliminate any grease that may have adhered during manufacturing and to eliminate the "new" appliance smell.
• Ventilate the room during this period. When your grill is heated for the first time, it may emit slight smoke or odor. This is normal with many heating appliances. This does not affect the safety of your appliance.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

1. Place the appliance on a stable, heat-resistant surface. Keep away from flammable objects.
2. Assemble the unit. Refer to the Parts & Accessories section to see the order of the items as they are assembled.
3. Add about 2 cups water to the collection pan.
4. Ensure that the drip tray is slid into the base of the appliance.
5. Leave ample air space on all sides of the appliance to facilitate air flow.
6. Plug the power cord into a dedicated outlet.
7. If you are starting with a cold grill, you may preheat the grill using a medium or high heat setting for 4–6 mins.
8. Prepare and season your food according to your favorite recipe. You may spray or wipe the grill plate's cooking surface with cooking oil.
9. Select the cooking temperature using the + and - buttons, add the food, put the lid in place, and grill to your personal taste. Turn the food as needed.

Note: Cooking with the lid on the smokeless grill is recommended because it maintains the cooking temperature, seals in flavor, and prevents splatter.

1. When done grilling, switch off the appliance and remove the plug from the wall outlet.

Caution! Never immerse or wash heating element, electric fan or base in water or any other liquids.

Caution! The glass lid and handle get very hot. Always handle hot components with oven mitts while cooking.

Caution! Wait for all components to cool thoroughly after use before disassembling.

REMOVING THE ELECTRIC FAN:

When you are thoroughly cleaning the base unit with water and detergents, always remove the electric fan. Turn over the base unit, slide and remove the fan cover by pulling away from the base. Lift the fan out of the base unit slowly and disconnect the two-prong connection into the base of the smokeless grill. When returning the fan to the base, make sure to insert the two-prong connection into the receptacle.

CAUTION: Unplug appliance before removing fan.

Electric Power

If the electrical circuit is overloaded with other appliances, your new unit may not operate properly. This unit should be operated on a dedicated electrical circuit.

Shut-Off

You can manually shut off the appliance by pressing the Power Button at any time during cooking.

• Be careful not to transfer germs from raw meat to cooked meat. Use separate utensils and platters for raw and cooked meat.
• Always marinade in a tightly covered nonmetal dish and turn the food occasionally. Be sure to refrigerate all meats while marinating.
• If leftover wet marinade is to be used as a sauce with the cooked food, be sure to place it in a small pan and heat to a rolling boil before serving to eliminate bacterial growth.
• Similar to a stove top frying pan, grease from high-fat foods, such as bacon or sausage, may splatter on the countertop. Protect the countertop as necessary.
• To prevent scratching the coating, use only nonmetallic utensils. Do not cut food on the grill plate using sharp utensils, such as forks or knives, that can scratch the cooking surface.
• Do not use steel wool or other metal pads. They could leave coarse scratches. Always rinse thoroughly and dry immediately with a soft towel.

GRILLING SUGGESTIONS

The table below shows some food that can be cooked on the grill along with suggested cooking times for each. Keep in mind that grilling times may vary depending on the type of food used, its size, thickness and current temperature, as well as personal preference.

Food	Time	Food	Time
Vegetables	8 -15 min	Fish Fillet	12 -18 min
Corn on the Cob	14 -16 min	Whole Fish	15 -16 min
Vegetable Kebab	5 -15 min	Chicken	22 - 26 min
Meat Kebab	16 -18 min	Pork (Bone-in)	14 -16 min
Hot Dogs	12 -16 min	Pork (Boneless)	12 -15 min
Sausages	16 -18 min	Beef (Bone-in)	12 -16 min
Shrimp	12 -14 min	Beef (Boneless)	8 -15 min

Caution: Consuming raw or undercooked meats, poultry, seafood, shellfish or eggs may increase your risk of foodborne illness.

TIPS

• Thaw food prior to grilling. For best results, do not attempt to grill frozen food and make sure any meat prepared is not too thick (approx. 0.5 in. / 1.5cm). This helps to keep the meat juicy.
• Tender meat is best suited for grilling. Meat will be more tender if marinated overnight.
• When basting food with marinade, use only a little oil and brush the marinade lightly onto the food to avoid excess smoke.
• Sausages tend to burst when grilled. To prevent this, cut the skin a few times lengthwise.
• When preparing kebabs, soak bamboo or wooden skewers in water to prevent them from getting scorched during grilling. Do not use metal skewers.

CAUTION! Wait for all components to cool thoroughly after use before disassembling. Always handle hot components with oven mitts while cooking or hot.

• Before cleaning, be sure to unplug the cord from the outlet. If necessary, wipe the cord with a damp cloth.
• Allow the appliance to cool completely before cleaning. The grill plate, drip tray, collection pan, and glass lid can be placed in the bottom rack of the dishwasher or washed by hand. The base unit can be cleaned by hand with a warm, damp cloth and mild liquid soap. For more thorough cleaning of the base unit, remove the electric fan.
• Always be sure to wash the smokeless grill surface after each use to remove any grease that may have accumulated. To keep grease from dripping outside of the base, always ensure that you are using your smokeless grill on a level surface and that the drip tray is completely clear of food particles.
• Use a damp cloth to clean the base. Do not use scouring pads or harsh cleaners on this unit. If necessary, use a nylon bristle brush or plastic scrubbing pad.
• If necessary, clean the glass sides with a cloth or paper towel using a vinegar solution (4-parts water, 1-part vinegar). Stubborn, caked-on food residue can be removed using a ceramic scraper on the glass surface.
• Reassemble the appliance.

NOTE: Any other servicing should be performed by an authorized service representative.
