User Maintenance Instructions  
CAUTION: To avoid accidental burns, allow your Grilling Machine to  
cool thoroughly before cleaning.  
1. Before cleaning, unplug the appliance from the wall outlet and allow  
to cool.  
CAUTION: To avoid any sparks at the outlet while disconnecting plug,  
make sure the ON/OFF Power Button is off "--" before disconnecting the  
plug from the outlet.  
2. Inside cleaning: Place the Drip Tray under the front of the Grilling  
Machine. Using the specially designed Spatula, scrape off any  
excess fat and food particles. Run-off will drip into the Drip Tray.

wipe the uncoated side with a dry towel to prevent discoloration.  
Dishwasher detergent may cause oxidation on the uncoated side of  
the cooking plate. This is not harmful and can be wiped off with a  
damp towel.  
4. Stubborn build-up: Use the scouring side of the Grill Sponge to clean  
the plates.  
5. Outside cleaning: Wipe with a warm, wet sponge and dry with a soft,  
dry cloth.  
6. To clean the Bun Warmer surface, simply wipe with a clean, damp  
cloth or sponge. Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners!  
7. Do not use steel wool, scouring pads, or abrasive cleaners on any  
part of the appliance.  
8. DO NOT IMMERSE THE BODY OF THE APPLIANCE IN WATER OR  
OTHER LIQUID.

Frequently Asked Questions  
Question  
Response  
1. Can I cook frozen food on  
my George Foreman Grill?  
It is preferable that food be defrosted before  
placing on the George Foreman Grill. Make  
sure that the Grill is preheated, see preheat  
instructions, before placing food on the grilling  
plate.  
2. Can I cook kabobs on the  
George Foreman Grill?  
Yes. In order to protect the non-stick surface  
use wooden skewers. We recommend that  
you soak the skewers first in water for about  
20 minutes. This will keep the skewers from  
burning.  
3. After cooking with garlic,  
how can I remove the smell  
of the garlic from the sur-  
face of my George Foreman  
Grill?  
After cleaning your George Foreman Grill  
according to the "User Maintenance  
Instructions" make a paste of baking soda and  
water and spread on the surface of the Grill.  
Allow it to sit for a few minutes and then  
remove and wash according to "User  
Maintenance Instructions."  
4. How can I cook hot dogs  
on my George Foreman  
Grill?  
Preheat your Grill for 7 minutes. Place the hot  
dogs lengthwise on the Grill. Close the Lid and  
cook for 6 minutes or until desired browning is  
achieved.  
5. Can hash browns be pre-  
pared on my George  
Foreman Grill?  
Yes, self-browning hash browns can be pre-  
pared by preheating the Grill for 7 minutes.  
Add hash browns onto the Grill surface, close  
the Lid, and cook for approximately half the  
time stated on the package for oven prepara-  
tion.  
6. Any other cooking sugges-  
tions?  
Brush green peppers with oil and slit on edges  
to flatten. Grill for 10 minutes then steam in a  
bag for 10 minutes before peeling.  
Grilled cheese sandwiches can also be  
cooked on your George Foreman Grill.
