How To Use

George Foreman’s Lean Mean

Fat Reducing Grilling Machine

1. Before using the Grilling Machine for the first time or if stored away for a long time, wipe the Grilling Plates with a damp cloth to remove all dust.

2. To preheat: Wipe the grill plates with a little cooking oil or butter. Do not use low fat spread - it may burn the grill. Close the Lid and plug cord into a 230-240V AC power outlet. The Indicator LED light will go on and the grilling plates will begin heating. At the same time the timer display will show a "5", indicating the start of the 5 minute pre-heat countdown. When the countdown is completed the unit will beep. The Timer Display will show "on" as a reminder that the power is still on.

3. Use a "pot holder" to carefully open the Lid.

4. Slide the grease catching Drip Tray under the front of the unit.

5. With a spatula or tongs carefully place the items to be cooked on the bottom grilling plate.

6. Close the Lid. The hinge will be articulated. NB The Grill plates should be roughly parallel to avoid uneven cooking. The hinge has a ‘floating’ design for even cooking, please do not think this is a faulty hinge. Press the Timer Up Button to set the desired grilling time. The Timer Display will show the set time. To adjust the Timer down, simply press the Timer Down Button. The timer can be set to a maximum of 20 minutes. Cooking times depend on type, thickness and volume of food.

7. The Variable Temperature Control allows you to cook your food at a specific heat setting (Minimum, Medium, or Maximum).

Adjust the Variable Temperature Control to your desired setting. See "Suggested Cooking Chart" on following page for specific details.

8. Allow the food to cook for the desired time. (Consult the Recipe Section at the back of this book for some suggestions.) Do not

leave appliance unattended during use!

During grilling, the Timer Display will begin counting down. When the set time has elapsed the unit will beep. Reminder:

The heat continues to be "on" until the appliance is unplugged. So if you leave food on the grill after the set time

has elapsed, it will continue being cooked.

9. After the desired amount of time, the food should be done. Check, if in doubt cook it a bit more.
