Extension Cord Use
We do not recommend the use of an extension cord, however if an extension
cord is required special care and caution is necessary. The cord must be a 14
Gauge, Three (3) Conductor type marked with an electrical rating of 120V, 15A,
1875W, and arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or table top
where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over accidentally.
Electrical Power
If the electric circuit is over loaded the circuit breaker will trip and your
appliance will not operate. It should be operated on a 20amp electrical circuit
separate from other appliances.
Assembly Instructions
1. Wash the Base, Grill, Grease Tray, and Lid in warm soapy water. Rinse
and dry thoroughly. DO NOT IMMERSE TEMPERATURE CONTROL
PROBE, wipe it off with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly.
2. Assemble the Pedestal Tube by joining the two halves. While pressing
the two pins in on the end of the upper Pedestal Tube, slide this end
into the unslotted end of the lower Pedestal Tube, rotating until the
pins firmly engage the holes in the lower Pedestal Tube.
3. Place the Pedestal Base on a flat, level surface.
4. Insert the slotted end of the Pedestal Tube assembly into the hole in
the center of the foot and push down firmly.
5. Place the Base on top of the Pedestal Tube assembly, with the hole in
the center of the Base engaging with the Tube.
6. Place the Grease Tray securely into position inside the Base. When
properly placed, it is held firmly with the pointed end over the center
of the Base.
7. Position the Grill securely into the Base, with the probe receptacle
fitting through the probe cutout in the top side of the Base.
8. Attach the Lid Handle to the Lid from inside the Lid with the Rubber-
Ringed Fastener.

How to Use George Foreman’s
Indoor/Outdoor
Electric Barbeque Grill
1. Turn temperature control probe to OFF position and attach securely into
the probe receptacle.
2. Plug into 120V~ 60 Hz outlet. Align desired temperature setting with the
indicator light. Place Lid securely on Grill. Allow Barbeque Gill to preheat
to desired temperature for approximately 10 minutes. See cooking charts
or recipes for more details.
3. Carefully remove Lid and place food onto Grill, cover for most foods. Cook
until done, turning at least once halfway through cooking time for most
food. Adjust temperature as needed.
You can control the moisture of foods to some extent by opening or closing
the lid vent. Turn the Lid Handle/Vent clockwise to open the vent for drier
cooking. Turn the Lid Handle/Vent counter-clockwise to minimize the vent
opening to hold in moisture for moister meats. The light on the
Temperature Control Probe will cycle on and off as the thermostat
maintains the proper temperature. This is normal operation.
NOTE: Condensation may collect on the inside of the lid when cooking.
Use caution when removing lid.
4. When finished cooking, turn temperature control probe to OFF position.
The indicator light will go off. Unplug and allow to cool before
disassembling and cleaning. See User Maintenance Instructions.
NOTE: The temperature control probe may be turned to setting 1 to keep
foods warm for short periods of time.
Hints for Grilling
• Use tender cuts of meat for grilling.
• Marinate tougher cuts of meat to tenderize them before grilling.
• To avoid drying out meat and fish, turn only once and do not pierce.
• To turn meat and fish, use a large flat plastic or wooden spatula to support
the food.
• Place meat or chicken to be roasted in a shallow baking pan. Do not cover
pan with a lid or foil. Using oven mitts, carefully place pan on preheated
Grill, taking care not to scratch the non-stick surface. Place Lid on the
Barbeque Grill.
NOTE: Just resting the baking container on top of the non-stick surface
will not damage it.
• Use only plastic or wooden utensils on non-stick surface.
CAUTION: Because some countertop finishes are more affected by heat than
others, make sure countertop surface can withstand temperatures of 150°F to
prevent discoloration or other damage to the countertop surface.
CAUTION: Grill surfaces are hot during use. Allow Grill, Grease Tray, Lid and
Base to cool completely before handling and cleaning.
6
Using Indoors
To use your INDOOR/OUTDOOR BARBEQUE GRILL indoors, simply lift the Base
unit off of the Pedestal Tube and place on a heat resistant surface.
NOTE: Never use INDOOR/OUTDOOR BARBEQUE GRILL without the base unit.
User Maintenance Instructions
CAUTION: Do not immerse temperature control probe in water or any other
liquid.
1. Unplug and allow to cool before disassembling and cleaning. Thoroughly
clean all parts after each use.
2. Remove Temperature Control Probe (DO NOT IMMERSE). Wipe with a
damp cloth and dry thoroughly.
3. Remove Grill and empty Grease Tray.
4. Wash the Base, Grill, Grease Tray, and Lid with hot soapy water and a
plastic scouring pad. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
CAUTION: Temperature Control Probe receptacle must always be completely
dry before use.

Suggested Cooking Charts
The following times are meant to be used as guidelines only. Cooking times
will vary due to the thickness of the meat being cooked. To be sure that the
meat is truly done, use a meat thermometer. If the meat does need more time
to cook, simply place the meat back on the Grill for 5 minute increments and
check periodically so you don’t over cook.
Grill Chart
1. Preheat INDOOR/OUTDOOR BARBEQUE GRILL.
2. Grill food according to recommended time or until desired doneness. Turn
halfway through cooking time, or more often if necessary.
3. Boneless cuts of meat will grill more evenly and will not scratch the
non-stick surface.
4. Leave the Lid on during cooking to decrease cooking time and keep food
moist and juicy.

bratwurst 5 25-35 minutes
chicken breast 4 20-30 minutes

Recipes
The Champ’s Sausage Without Guilt
Try this sizzling sausage patty that not only tastes good, but is also good for
you. Choose ground turkey breast, which is lower in fat than ground turkey
containing dark meat and skin. Turkey, especially the light meat is a good
source of niacin, which is an important B vitamin needed to maintain a
healthy nervous system.
1 slightly beaten egg white
1/3 cup finely chopped onion
1/4 cup finely snipped dried apples or
1/2 cup finely chopped fresh Red Delicious apple
1/4 cup seasoned bread crumbs
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon ground sage
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 pound lean ground turkey breast
• In a medium bowl, combine all ingredients except turkey. Add the ground
turkey and mix well.
• Shape the mixture into eight or nine 2-inch wide patties.
• Preheat the INDOOR/OUTDOOR BARBEQUE GRILL on Setting 4 for 10
minutes.
• Place sausage on INDOOR/OUTDOOR BARBEQUE GRILL. Cover and cook
on Setting 4 for 16-17 minutes. Turn and cook another 16-17 minutes or until
the meat is no longer pink and the juices run clear.
• Serves 4
This recipe is from “The Healthy Gourmet” (Clarkson Potter) by Cherie
Calbom.
