Before Using the Grill

  1. Remove the cooking grate and drip tray from the grill. Wash the grill with warm soapy water using a non-abrasive cloth. USE ONLY HIGH TEMP PLASTIC UTENSILS WHEN GRILLING. Visit our website to purchase a set of high-quality stainless steel/high temp plastic grill utensils, at www.cookwithkenyon.com.
  2. Make sure the drip tray is inserted into the bottom of the grill and the electric element bracket is resting on the element support bracket.
  3. Cover the bottom of the drip tray with a liquid. The water is fine. PLEASE DO NOT USE A FLAMMABLE LIQUID! Doing so would ruin your cookout. Using apple juice if you are grilling pork adds a nice flavour to the meat. A can of lime soda is wonderful if you are grilling fish. Just remember to always add liquid to the drip tray before grilling.
  4. To keep your grill smoke-free, always clean the grilling surface after each use. Simply wash with warm soapy water using a non-abrasive cloth or place in your dishwasher. Empty the drip tray and wipe with a damp paper towel. The drip tray can be used multiple times before needing to be replaced.
  5. Place your cooking grate or optional griddle (part #B96000) onto the element with a drip tray installed. Use the griddle for foods such as eggs, pancakes or my favourite – stuffed French toast!
  6. Preheat the grill for 5 to 9 minutes on the heat setting for the type of food.
    • Steak – Temp setting 550˚F/ Power setting 16
    • Burgers – Temp setting 500˚F/ Power setting 9
    • Pork and Fish – Temp setting 400˚F/ Power setting 5
    • Vegetables – Temp setting 350˚F/ Power setting 4
  7. Close the lid and cook. Enjoy the best-grilled food you have ever tasted!
  8. Clean up. After the grill has cooled to the touch, take a few pieces of paper towel and place them on the grilling surface. Pour about one ounce of water on the towel and then using your high-temperature nylon tongs, swab the paper towelling back and forth to loosen up the residue from your grilling. Throw the paper towel away and wipe the grates off with a dry paper towel.
  9. Once the grate has cooled sufficiently, remove the grate and place it in your dishwasher for a thorough cleaning.
  10. With the grate removed, lift the electric elements and remove the drip tray. Empty the contents of the drip tray in an appropriate place. Wipe the tray out with a dry paper towel and reuse the tray. The tray can last for several uses.
  11. After you have used your grill many times, you may want to wash the lid. It can be placed in your dishwasher and run on the pots & pans cycle. This will restore your grill to its original pristine look.
  12. To clean the grill, first, be sure the cooking surface has cooled enough to handle. Then remove the grate, lift the electric element until it locks in the up position, and then the drip tray.
  13. Wipe the stainless steel surfaces with a damp cloth to remove any residue from previous grilling sessions.
  14. Your Kenyon grill came with a sample bottle of stainless steel cleaner. Use this cleaner once a month to keep your grill looking like new.
  15. The touch control area is ceramic glass which is sealed from the effects of rain, snow and ice. To clean the glass, use a glass cleaner and a soft towel. If stains appear, use a ceramic glass cleaner which can be found in your local grocery store.

Stuffed French Toast

  • 16 slices of sliced Bread
  • 1 lb. Cream Cheese (softened)
  • ½ cup Peach Preserves (or your favorite)
  • 4 T. Butter

French Toast Batter

  • 5 Large eggs thoroughly beaten
  • 1 cup Milk
  • 1 T. Cinnamon, ground
  • ½ t. Allspice, ground
  • ½ t. Coriander, ground
  • 2 oz. Water (Dark Rum, Optional)

In a large bowl place the eggs and beat with a wire whisk. Add the milk and beat again until incorporated. In a separate smaller bowl pour water or Rum (if you prefer) and add dry ingredients, mix thoroughly. Once the dry ingredients have been mixed, add to the egg and milk mixture and beat again until mixed. By doing this you avoid the clumps that come with making batter.

Method of Preparation

  • This will require the use of your griddle. Preheat your ‘All Seasons Grill’ on medium-high heat (12 bars) for approximately ten minutes.
  • Once the cream cheese has softened mix with the peach preserves. Divide equally onto eight slices of bread and spread evenly. Place the remaining eight slices on top to make a sandwich. When your griddle has been preheated, add two tablespoons of butter and move around to coat the griddle. Reserve the rest of the butter for the remaining pieces of French Toast. Take the sandwich dip it into the mixture and flip it over to coat both sides of your bread.
  • Quickly do this to three more “sandwiches”. You will now have four pieces of stuffed French Toast on your griddle.
  • Be careful not to burn. Flip the sandwiches over and continue cooking until both sides are browned nicely.
  • At this point, you either serve with some nicely warmed maple syrup and butter, or you can keep warm in a low oven until you finish the remaining pieces of French Toast.

Operation

  • DO NOT USE WATER ON GREASE FIRES
  • Smother fire or flame or use a dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.

USE ONLY DRY POT HOLDERS
Moist or damp pot holders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let the pot holder touch the grate or element of the grill. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth in place of a pot holder.
DO NOT COOK ON BROKEN GRILL GRATE OR GRIDDLE
If the grate should break, grease and oils may come into direct contact with the electric element and create a risk of electric shock or fire. Contact an authorized service center or KENYON Customer Care immediately at
860-664-4906.
CLEAN GRILL WITH CAUTION
If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot cooking surface, be careful to avoid steam burns. Some cleaners produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface. Read the cleaner label for details before using.
DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENT OR GRATE
The heating element and grate will be hot for some time after cooking. These components should be allowed to cool and then be handled with care and caution while cleaning, as they may be hot enough to cause severe burns.
Do not operate an appliance with a damaged power cord or plug. If the appliance
malfunctions, discontinue use and contact the nearest authorized appliance dealer or the
factory examination, repair or adjustment.
DO NOT USE POTS OR OTHER BAKEWARE ON THE GRILL
NEVER LEAVE GRILL UNATTENDED AT HIGH HEAT SETTINGS
High heat settings may cause heavy smoking and ignite grease.

CLEAN GRILL AFTER EACH USE
This appliance is equipped with a removable, disposable drip tray. The drip tray MUST be removed and cleaned after every use. Do not allow grease to accumulate between cooking. The drip tray and baffle tray MUST be used when cooking on the grill. Excessive grease may spill over into the interior of the grill, voiding your warranty and posing a fire hazard.
DO NOT CLEAN UNIT WITH PRESSURIZED WATER
Never clean the grill with any form of pressurized water or other types of cleaners. Doing so will void the warranty and may pose a serious risk of electric shock. Always clean the grill with a cloth and a stainless steel or glass surface cleaner.
STORAGE
When used as a portable grill, store it indoors when not in use. When used as a built-in grill, suitable shelter must be provided to prevent direct exposure to rain. Covers available.
TO PREVENT SMOKE
To prevent the contents of the drip tray from smoking, place 1 cup of water (or enough to cover the bottom of the pan) in the drip tray before cooking.

Indicator Lights

  • There are a series of lights that provide indications of element operation and hot surfaces.

  • These lights are located adjacent to the control panels. When the control is ON, an LED light array will illuminate indicating that the element is on.

  • For your safety, we have incorporated a “HOT” indicator light. When lit, this light indicates that some part of the cooking grate is too warm to touch or place articles upon.

  • Do not place articles on the cooking surface while this light is glowing.

  • After turning off the element, the “HOT” indicator light will remain illuminated until the cooking grate is safe to touch.

Turning On
Touch the controls firmly with the flat part of your fingertips.
With the unit unlocked, touch the POWER button in the main control frame. Activate the element by holding the element power button in the control frame for 2 seconds and choosing a cooking option. If the element is not activated within 15 seconds, the grill will de-power by itself.

Safety Lock Feature

  • The lock feature can be activated as a safety measure at any time whether the grill is ON or OFF.

When the Grill is ON:
Locking the grill when it is ON will deactivate the power settings from adjusting up or down. Pressing either the zone power or the master power button will turn off the grill even when the lock is on.
When the Grill is OFF:
Locking the grill when it is off will deactivate all functions of the control panel until it is unlocked. The master power button will not power on the grill when the lock is on.

Cooking Mode Options
The grill element can be independently operated by either a heating level ranging from low to high, or by setting a specific cooking temperature.

Heating Element
The heating element is designed to pivot as shown to remove/replace the baffle tray and drip tray. It will stay in the up position. To put down apply slight downward pressure.
Baffle Tray
The baffle tray supports the drip tray, heating element and grate and must always be used when operating the grill.
Drip Tray
The disposable drip tray collects all the fat and juices created during the cooking process. The drip tray must be emptied after each use. When replacing the drip tray, position the drip tray so that it is completely contained inside the baffle tray and ensure that the side of the rim of the drip tray does not protrude outside of the baffle tray. Refer to the image below.

To prevent the contents of the drip tray from smoking, place 1 cup of water (or enough to cover the bottom of the pan) in the drip tray before cooking. The replacement for the disposable drip tray is Kenyon part #B96001.
Grate
The grate must be cleaned after every use. The grate has a nonstick coating for ease of cleaning. Wash the grate after each use in warm soapy water.

Your IntelliKEN Touch™ Grill is supplied with a factory-installed polished stainless steel flange that accepts four oval head wood screws for mounting. The trim flange of the grill is designed to hold the unit firmly in place on the countertop. If desired, you may seal the edge of the countertop beneath the trim flange. We recommend a NON-ADHESIVE such as Plumber’s Putty. This will help reduce the chance of damage to the trim flange should the unit need to be removed from the countertop. Should you need to remove the unit from the countertop after installation simply take a piece of fishing line and run back and forth under the trim flange to break the caulk bond.

WARNING!
Allow a 2-inch (2”) minimum clearance between the bottom of the grill and the combustible surface located below, ie: the upper edge of a drawer installed below the grill (see page 22). Failure to provide proper clearances and ventilation may result in a fire hazard.

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION BEFORE MAKING CUTOUT FOR THE GRILL.

It is important to plan for the installation of the grill, keeping the following dimensions in mind.

  • A – 13 inches maximum depth of overhead cabinets
  • B – 36 inches is the minimum height of the countertop above the floor
  • C – The minimum flat countertop surface that the grill will rest upon must be equal to or greater than the overall grill dimensions ( thru 8 for overall grill dimensions).
  • D – 30 inches minimum clearance between the top of the cooking surface and the bottom of an unprotected wood or metal cabinet or 24 inch minimum clearance when the bottom of the wood or metal cabinet is protected by not less than 1/4-inch-thick flame retardant billboard covered with not less than No. 28 MSG sheet steel, 0.015-inch-think stainless steel, 0.024-inch-thick aluminium or 0.020-inch-thick-copper.
  • E – 6-inch minimum from the backsplash of the countertop to the edge of a grill ( 8 for overall grill dimensions). 1-1/2 inches minimum from the front of the counter to the grill.

FOR INSTALLATIONS IN CANADA: “Do Not Install Closer Than 1/2 Inch (12mm) From Any Adjacent Surface”, and NE PAS INSTALLER A’MDINS DE 12MM DETOUTE SURFACE ADJACENTE.

WARNING!
To eliminate the risk of burns by reaching over heated surface units, cabinet storage space located above surface units should be avoided. If cabinet storage is to be provided, the risk can be reduced by installing a range hood that projects horizontally a minimum of 5” beyond the bottom of the cabinets.

  • Before making the countertop cutout, check for clearance. Check to see if the grill will clear the front and side walls of the base cabinet. It is also important to provide enough ventilation.

  • Adequate ventilation of the space below the countertop must be provided to ensure proper operation of the grill. Heat transferred from the grill bottom pan during operation will overheat an improperly ventilated area.

  • When making a countertop cutout, radius the corner to help prevent cracking of the countertop material. A 1/4 inch radius is typical, but follow the countertop manufacturer’s instructions regarding the minimum radius and any reinforcements required to prevent damage to the countertop over time.

  • Use Plumber’s Putty to seal the grill to the countertop. Plumber’s Putty is a soft, pliable sealing compound that is used to make watertight seals around faucets, drains, and other plumbing parts.

  • The putty is hidden under the flange, lip, or edge of the grill and is not visible when the grill is installed. If caulk were used instead of putty, it would be difficult to access these areas to cut through the caulk to remove the part.

  • Plumber’s Putty is a very inexpensive material that is sold in small plastic tubs. It is always shaped by hand before it is applied to the plumbing part. Follow the basic instructions on the container of the Plumber’s Putty. If your countertop is made of granite, marble, quartz, sandstone or Corian use a stain-free Plumber’s Putty to prevent the staining of the countertop.

Drain Connection

For your convenience, the grill is equipped with a 1/2” NPT brass pipe fitting and 90º brass elbow which you can attach to the 5/8” ID flexible hose that came with your grill. The portable version of the grill comes with a brass pipe plug installed in the drain fitting. If you are using your grill as a portable unit, save the hose and 90º brass fitting for possible installation in the future.

Outlet Location

  • Be sure the electrical outlet intended for the grill is in an easily accessible location. This allows the user to easily plug and unplug the grill. This is necessary to ensure safe cleaning and storage of the grill.

Final Preparations Before Use

  • Remove the protective plastic film from the lid, trim flange and glass panel. Clean the grill before you use it for the first time. A thorough cleaning with a stainless steel or glass cleaner will remove any traces of plastic film adhesives and manufacturing oils.
  • Wash the nonstick-coated grates in warm soapy water before using the grill.
