BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME

Wipe the grill plates with a damp cloth.

FLAT OR TILTED?

• You can raise the tilt stand, to tilt the grill, and speed the flow of fat into the drip tray, or
leave it flat, to prevent food drifting towards the front of the grill.

• Grill meat, burgers, anything that exudes fat, on the tilt.

• Grill sandwiches, panini, foods with fluid ingredients like molten cheese, on the flat.

PRE PAR ATION / PREHE AT

1. Centre the drip tray under the front of the grill, so it catches any run-off.

2. Put the plug into the power socket.

3. Set the temperature control to the required temperature (1-4).

4. Move the power switch to I. The power light will glow as long as the appliance is connected
to the electricity supply.

5. The thermostat light will glow when the appliance reaches working temperature.

6. It will then cycle on and off as the thermostat operates to maintain the temperature.

FILL THE GRILL

1. Use an oven glove to open the grill.

2. Lay the food on the bottom cooking plate with a spatula or tongs, not fingers.

3. Don’t use tools that might damage the non-stick surfaces.

CONTACT GRILL SETTING

1. Simply close the grill onto the food.

2. The hinge adjusts to cope with thick or oddly shaped foods.

3. The cooking plates should be roughly parallel, to avoid uneven cooking.

4. Contact grilling is faster, as both grill plates are in contact with the food.

5. When done, open the grill (use the oven gloves), and remove the food with a spatula/tongs

6. Switch off and unplug the grill.

MELT SETTING

1. Remove the top plate after it has cooled down by pressing and releasing the button and
lifting the plate away from the element. Once the top plate has been removed do not force
the grill shut, the hinge is designed to float in this mode.

2. The melt light (blue) will come on.

3. Choose the melt mode by pressing the melt button (O for gentle top heat P for more

intense heat). The top element will glow.

4. The upper cooking plate is raised clear of the food and it melts without squashing (for
cheese on toast, panini , tuna melts or delicate food such as fish).

5. When done, open the grill (use the oven gloves), and remove the food with a spatula/tongs.

6. Switch off and unplug the grill.

CHECK THAT THE FOOD IS COOKED

• Whichever cooking mode you use, check that the food is cooked through before serving –
if you’re in any doubt, cook it a bit more.

• Cook meat, poultry, and any derivatives (mince, burgers, etc.) till the juices run clear. Cook
fish till the flesh is opaque throughout.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

1. Switch off (0)

2. Unplug the grill and let it cool down before cleaning or storing away.

3. Remove one plate at a time.

4. Press the release button and lift the plate away from the element.

5. Wipe all surfaces with a clean damp cloth.

6. Wash the drip tray in warm soapy water, or in the top rack of the dishwasher.

7. Don’t use scourers, wire wool, or soap pads.

FITTING THE PLATES

1. Fit one plate at a time.

2. The bottom grill plate has two small tabs , one at either end on one side of the grill plate.
The top grill plate has one large tab in the centre.

3. For the top plate, put the tab into the slot on the hinge side of the appliance.

4. For the bottom grill plate, put the tabs into the slots on the rear side of the appliance.

5. Press the other edge of the plate into the handle side, to lock it in place.

6. At the places where the top and bottom plates make contact, the non-stick surfaces may
show signs of wear. This is purely cosmetic, and will not affect the operation of the grill.
