NOTE
For best cooking results when toasting
sandwiches on the PANINI setting.
- Always place sandwiches in the
centre bottom plate.
- Toasting should take approximately
5–8 minutes. Exact toasting time will
be amatter of preference and the
type of bread and llings used. For

11. Use the handle to close the top cooking
plate. The top cooking plate has two
features designed to produce optimum
cooking results:
a) Floating top plate. The top cooking plate
is hinged, allowing the top plate to be
positioned horizontally on the food
surface. This ensures the front of the
food is as evenly cooked as the back. It
also allows the top plate to oat above
the food surface, radiating heat to create
open sandwich style melts.
NOTE
The surfaces of the grill are hot during
and after operation. Always use the
integrated leveling support/PLATE
RELEASE on the front, right side of the
top cooking plate when adjusting the
position of the top plate.
Alternatively, use protective hot pads
or insulated oven mitts.
NOTE
Never use the leveling handle to open
the top cooking plate. Always use
the handle to open and close the top
cooking plate.
WARNING:
The levelling support may get hot
during and after operation. Always
use the levelling support as pictured.
WARNING:
Never grip the levelling support or
use it to open the top cooking plate.
Always use the grill handle to open
and close the top cooking plate.
b) Adjustable height control. This
feature reduces the weight of the top
plate on delicate foods like sh and
accommodates varying thicknesses of
food like artisan breads. Located on the
right side of the top plate, the clip xes
the top plate to arange of positions
above the bottom plate. To set the
adjustable height control, use the handle
to lift the top plate and simultaneously
move the adjustable height control
clip to the desired height. Then slowly
lower the top plate until it rests on the
adjustable height control clip.

Meats
Recommended cuts:
• Beef - sirloin (New York), rump, rib eye
(scotch llet), llet.
• Lamb - trim lamb leg steaks, llet eye of
loin, cutlets and diced lamb.
• Pork - butter y loin steaks, spare ribs, leg
steaks, llets, diced pork.
• It is not recommended to cook items
with thick bones such as T-bone steaks.
• Tougher cuts such as beef blade,
topside steak, lamb forequarter or neck
chops can be used. To tenderize these
cuts, marinate them for afew hours
or overnight in amarinade with wine
or vinegar to help break down the
connective tissue.
• If using amarinade recipe or
premarinated meats from your meat
retailer, drain excess marinade o and
dab the meat with paper towels before
placing on the grill. Some marinades
contain high sugar levels which can
scorch on the cooking plate.
• Do not salt meat before cooking. Salt
will draw out the juices, toughening the
meat.
• Do not pierce meat with afork or cut
meat while cooking. This will let the
juices escape, resulting in atougher, dry
steak. Use tongs instead
• Do not over cook meat. Some meats are
better served pink and juicy.
• Parboiling sausages can alleviate the
need to pierce sausages before cooking.
• When removing sh pieces from the grill,
use a at heat resistant plastic spatula to
support the food.
JUDGING DONENESS
There is an art to determining when your
steak, lamb chop or cutlet is cooked to the
correct degree of doneness – rare, medium
rare, medium, medium well or well done –
but it is easily mastered with these handy
hints and tips.
Rare
Cook for afew minutes per side, depending
on thickness. Turn once only. Cook until
steak feels very soft with back of tongs.
Ameat thermometer will show the internal
temperature of arare steak as 55–60°C.
Medium rare
Cook on one side until moisture is just
visible on top surface. Turn once only. Cook
on the other side until surface moisture is
visible. Steak will be cooked to medium
rare when it feels soft with back of tongs.
Ameat thermometer will show the internal
temperature of amedium rare steak as
60–65°C.
Medium
Cook on one side until moisture is pooling on
top surface. Turn once only. Cook on second
side until moisture is visible. Steak will be
cooked to medium when it feels springy
with back of tongs. Ameat thermometer will
show the internal temperature of amedium
steak as 65–70°C.
Medium well
Cook on one side until moisture is pooling
on top surface. Turn and cook on second side
until moisture is pooling on top. Reduce heat
slightly and continue to cook until steak feels
rm with back of tongs. Ameat thermometer
will show the internal temperature of
amedium well steak as 70–75°C.
GRILLING TIPS

Well done
Cook on one side until moisture is pooling
on top surface. Turn and cook on second side
until moisture is pooling on top. Reduce heat
slightly and continue to cook until steak feels
very rm with back of tongs.
Ameat thermometer will show the internal
temperature of awell done steak as 75°C.
NOTE
The information above has been kindly
donated by the Meat and Livestock
Association of Australia.
NOTE
Steaks do not need turning if cooking
in contact position. Turn steaks once
only when grilling in open at BBQ

CARE & CLEANING
Ensure the grill is turned OFF by turning the
Temperature dial to the OFF position.
The grill is OFF when the LCD screen displays
OFF and the default ‘0’ zero time.
Remove the power plug from the wall outlet.
Allow the grill to cool completely before
disassembling and cleaning.
Always clean the outer body, drip tray and
cooking plates after each use to prevent
abuild-up of ingredients.
NOTE
Do not use abrasive cleansers or metal
scouring pads on any of the interior
or exterior surfaces of the grill. These
will scratch the surfaces and damage
the non-stick coating on the cooking
plates.
CLEANING THE OUTER BODY
Wipe the outer body with asoft, damp
sponge. Anon-abrasive liquid cleanser or
mild spray solution may be used to avoid
build-up of stains. Apply the cleanser to the
sponge, not the grill surface, before cleaning.
Rinse. Let all surfaces dry thoroughly prior to
inserting the power plug into awall outlet.
CLEANING THE DRIP TRAY
After each use, slide out the drip tray and
discard contents. Wash the tray in warm
soapy water with asoft, damp sponge.
Anon-abrasive liquid cleanser may be
used to avoid build-up of stains. Apply the
cleanser to the sponge, not the tray, before
cleaning.
Rinse and dry thoroughly. Always ensure
to re-insert the drip tray into the grill after
cleaning and prior to inserting the power
plug into awall outlet.
WARNING:
Extreme caution must be used when
handling the drip tray containing hot
fats and juices.
CLEANING THE COOKING PLATES
1. Wipe the cooking plates with asoft cloth
to remove food residue.
2. Alternatively, release and remove the
cooking plates:
− Always ensure the grill is completely
cool.
− Use the handle to open the top plate
to a90 degree position.
− Use the PLATE RELEASE on the front,
right side of the top plate to remove
the top cooking plate, and the PLATE
RELEASE on the left side of the control
panel to remove the bottom cooking
plate.
− Once released, gently slide the plates
o the grill.
3. Place the cooking plates in the
dishwasher (top shelf only).
4. Alternatively, wash the cooking plates
in hot soapy water with asoft, damp
sponge. Anon-abrasive liquid cleanser
may be used to avoid build-up of stains.
Apply the cleanser to the sponge, not the
plate, before cleaning. Remove stubborn
