hot surfaces. Do not let the cord hang down
over a heat source or place appliance close
to flammable items.

• Open the appliance and remove any
packaging, stickers from both the inside and
the outside.

• Lightly coat the plates with vegetable oil or
non-stick cooking spray. Wipe with a soft
cloth. This will ensure convenient stick free
cooking.

Use instructions

When the appliance is used for the first time,
it may give off a slight odor and smoke, this is
normal. This should only occur on initial use.

• Close the appliance.

• Plug into the mains outlet. The power
indicator light (b) and the thermostat light (d)
will turn on (2).

• Select the desired temperature using the
thermostat (c). The thermostat light (d) will
go off (3).

• Once the appliance reaches the correct
temperature, the thermostat light (d) will
come on again. It will take approximately 4­6 minutes for the appliance to heat to
maximum temperature.

• Once temperature is reached, open the
appliance by the cool touch handle (a) and
place the food on the lower plate (f).

• Use plastic utensils on the non-stick plates.
Do not use metal utensils as they can
damage the non-stick plates.

• Close the appliance. The hinges (g) adjust
automatically according to the thickness of
the food (4). There is no need to press down
on the handle. The weight of the upper
plates will press down on item being grilled.

appliance can be opened at any time during
cooking to check on the progress of the
items being cooked.
