QUICKSTART TIPS
IntelliKEN Touch ™
Thank you for purchasing the World’s Finest All Seasons® Electric Grill! Here are a few simple steps you can take to ensure your good decision will lead to years of World-Class Grilling:

  1. Remove grate(s) and drip tray(s), clean both.

  2. Insert the drip tray(s) into the bottom of the grill. Make sure the burner brackets are not resting on the drip tray(s).

  3. Always fill the drip tray(s) with 2 cups of liquid. Water will work, but why not try beer or wine to add flavor to your favorite food. Then re-install the cooking grate.

  4. You have the choice of temperature or power setting. Adjust control setting for the type of food, for example:
    Vegetables – Temp setting 350°F / Power setting 4
    Chicken, pork and fish – Temp setting 400°F / Power setting 5
    Hamburgers – Temp setting 500°F / Power setting 9
    Steak – Temp setting 550°F / Power setting 16
    Preheat the grill with the lid closed for 5 – 7 minutes. Enjoy the best- grilled food you
    have ever tasted!

  5. Once cool, place the grate/griddle in the dishwasher along with the dirty dishes so that it’s ready for its next tour of duty!

  6. While the grate is in the wash, don’t forget to clean out the drip tray contents.
    This is an important step in preventing a grease fire.

Before Using the Grill

  1. Remove the cooking grates and drip trays 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, www.cookwithkenyon.com.

  2. Make sure the drip trays are inserted all the way into the bottom of the grill and electric element brackets are resting on the element support bracket.

  3. Cover the bottom of the drip trays 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 flavor to the meat. A can of lime soda is wonderful if you are grilling fish. Just remember always add liquid to the drip trays prior to grilling.

  4.  To keep your grill smoke-free, always clean the grilling surfaces after each use. Simply wash with warm soapy water using a non-abrasive cloth or place it in your dishwasher. Empty the drip trays and wipe with a damp paper towel.

  5. Place your cooking grates or optional griddles (part #B96000) onto the element with drip trays installed. Use the griddles for foods such as eggs, pancakes, or my favorite –
    stuffed french toast!

  6. Preheat grill with the lid closed for 5 – 7 minutes on desired 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(s) 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 toweling 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 grates have cooled sufficiently, remove the grates and place them in your dishwasher for a thorough cleaning.

  10. With the grates removed, lift up the electric elements and remove the drip trays. Empty the contents of the drip trays in an appropriate place. Wipe the trays out with a dry paper towel and reuse the trays.

  11. After you have used your grill many times, you may want to wash the lids. They 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 grates, lift up the electric elements until they lock in the up position, remove the middle grate support crossbar, then the drip trays. The grate support crossbar is removed by lifting the rear and pulling the front notch off of the supporting tab. To install the support reverse the procedure. Do not cook on the grill without the support crossbar in place!

  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 Thin 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 the batter.
Method of Preparation:
This will require the use of your griddle. Preheat your ‘All Seasons Grill’ on medium-high heat (6 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 and dip 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 POTHOLDERS
Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let the potholder touch the grate or element of the grill. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth in place of a potholder.
DO NOT COOK ON A 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 prior to using it.
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 the 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.
CLEAN GRILL AFTER EACH USE
This appliance is equipped with removable, disposable drip trays. The drip trays MUST be removed and cleaned after each and EVERY use. Do not allow grease to accumulate
between cooking. The drip trays 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.
NEVER LEAVE GRILL UNATTENDED AT HIGH HEAT SETTINGS
High heat settings may cause heavy smoking and ignite grease.
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
Suitable shelter must be provided to prevent direct exposure to rain. Covers are available at www.cookwithkenyon.com.
TO PREVENT SMOKE
To prevent the contents of the drip trays from smoking, place 2 cups of water (or enough to cover the bottom of the pan) in the drip trays before cooking.
DO NOT USE POTS OR OTHER BAKEWARE ON THE GRILL

KEEP THESE INSTRUCTIONS WITH THE GRILL FOR FUTURE REFERENCE

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, a LED light array will illuminate indicating which 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 either element by holding the element power button in the control frame for 2 seconds and choosing a cooking option. If an element is not activated within 15 seconds, the grill will de-power by itself.

Safety Lock Feature

When the LOCKED LED is illuminated in the main power control frame, the grill touch control power settings can’t be adjusted from the current setting. Pressing either the zone power button or the master power button, however, can turn off the grill. The LED arc light array will no longer illuminate when in lock mode. The lock feature can be activated at any time as a safety measure, whether the unit power is on or off.

When the unit has power the STANDBY light will illuminate.

To unlock the grill, swipe the LOCK feature with your fingertip along the gradient surface, from the LOCK to the UNLOCK position as indicated by the key, and open padlock graphics or touch and hold the UNLOCK graphic for 3 seconds.
To LOCK the grill, swipe from the UNLOCK to the LOCK position or touch and hold the LOCK button for 3 seconds.
Cooking Mode Options
The grill elements can be independently operated by either a heating level ranging from low to high, or by setting a specific cooking temperature.
Heat Level Cooking Mode

With the main power on and the element powered on, swipe your finger along the temperature control arc and release it at the desired setting. The settings range from LOW-MED-HIGH in 16 increments, as indicated by the LED light array that illuminates along the control sweep. Also, the arc + and – signs can be toggled to select the desired heat level. The LED light array will indicate the selected setting.

Grill Parts

Heating Elements
The heating elements are designed to pivot as shown to remove/replace the baffle tray and drip trays. They will stay in the up position. To put down apply slight downward pressure.

Baffle Tray
The baffle tray supports the drip trays, heating elements, and grates and must always be used when operating the grill. The crossbar must also be installed to support the elements and grates.

Drip Trays
The drip trays collect all the fat and juices created during the cooking process. The drip trays must be emptied after each use. When replacing the drip trays, position the drip trays so that they are completely contained inside the baffle tray and insuring that the side or the rim of the drip trays do not protrude outside of the baffle tray.
To prevent the contents of the drip trays from smoking, place 2 cups of water (or enough to cover the bottom of the pan) in the drip trays before cooking.
Grates
Grates must be cleaned after every use. The grates have a nonstick coating for ease of cleaning. Wash grates after each use in warm soapy water.

Lid Removal
The grill lids are removable for cleaning. To remove the lids, open it so the bearing is aligned with the notch in the lid stay. Pull the lid to stay toward the center of the grill, over the bearing, releasing the lid from the lid stay mechanism. Then slide the quick release pinout of the middle hinge.

With the quick-release pin removed, grasp the lid, pushing back on the center to clear the middle hinge, and slide the lid away from the center of the grill until the outer hinge is free of its pivot pin. Once the lid(s) have been removed they can be washed in warm, soapy water. Installation is reverse of removal.

Handle Lock
The handle lock allows the user to lock both lids together for ease of opening and accessing the entire grilling surface.

The lids can also be unlocked and opened individually for access to either half of the grilling surface.

This is a great feature allowing the user to access only half of the grill, allowing the other half to continue cooking uninterrupted.

Installation

Unpacking the Grill

  1. Carefully unpack the grill from its shipping container.
    Verify and identify the package contents. The following items should be included in the carton. If any components are missing or damaged, call KENYON immediately.
    Check the Electrical Supply Requirements

  2. This product must be installed in accordance with national, state, and local electric codes. The following table provides the correct voltage, amperage, and frequency that must be supplied to the grill. The means for disconnection must be incorporated in the fixed wiring in accordance with the wiring rules.

ELECTRICAL SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS


The supply must be from an individual grounded circuit that is protected by a circuit breaker and rated per the specifications for the model as shown in this table.

KENYON PART NUMBER| MAX CONNECTED LOAD| POWER SUPPLY INPUT| PLUG TYPE
B70425| 3000 Watts| 240V AC 13A 50/60Hz| 3 wire cord no plug
B70425NH| 3000 Watts| 240V AC 13A 50/60Hz| 3 wire cord no plug
B70425AU| 3000 Watts| 240V AC 13A 50/60Hz| AU 3 prong grounded cord
B70426AU| 3000 Watts| 240V AC 13A 50/60Hz| AU 3 prong grounded cord
B70427AU| 3000 Watts| 240V AC 13A 50/60Hz| AU 3 prong grounded cord

IMPORTANT!

If the electrical supply does not meet the product specifications, consult with a licensed electrician before proceeding with installation!

Countertop Preparation
3. Your Texan Grill with IntelliKEN Touch™ is supplied with a factory- installed polished stainless steel flange that accepts nine oval head wood screws for mounting. The trim range 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 Plumbers 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 takes 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 combustible surface located below, ie: the upper edge of a drawer installed below the grill (see page  18). Failure to provide proper clearances and ventilation may result in a fire hazard.

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION PRIOR TO MAKING A CUTOUT FOR THE GRILL.
It is important to plan ahead 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 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 (refer to page 5 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 millboard covered with not less than No. 28 MSG sheet steel, 0.015-inch-thick  stainless steel, 0.024-inch-thick aluminum or 0.020-inch-thick copper.
E – 6-inch minimum from backsplash of countertop to the edge of a grill(refer to page 5 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 sidewalls 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 the proper operation of the grill. Heat transferred from the grill bottom pan during operation will overheat an improperly ventilated area.

Since the appliance requires a sufficient supply of fresh air to operate at maximum performance, the cabinet must be designed accordingly. The following is required for this:

  • The cabinet must have a minimum of two openings; one to allow fresh air to enter and the other for hot air to escape the cabinet.
  • Opening sizes must be equal to 8 square inches each. This is for ambient temperatures of 85ºF / 30ºC and below. If the ambient temperature around the appliance is above  85ºF / 30ºC then larger ventilation opening sizes may be required.

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 staining of the countertop.

Drain Connection
4. 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.

Final Preparations Prior to Use
5. Remove the protective plastic film from the lid, trim flange, and glass panel. Clean the grill before you use it for the first time. 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.
