OPERATING YOUR NEW APPLIANCE
EN
BEFORE FIRST USE
Remove and safely discard any packaging
material or promotional labels before using your
grill for the rst time. Check that the cooking
plates are clean and free of dust. If necessary,
wipe over with a soft damp cloth. Dry thoroughly.
NOTE
When using the grill for the rst time you
may notice a ne smoke haze. This is
caused by the heating of some of the
components. There is no need for concern.
The grill can be used as a grill for searing meats
and vegetables or as a sandwich press for
toasting breads and focaccias. It also features
an adjustable height control feature which
allows you to x the top plate to a range of
positions above the bottom plate.
TO USE AS A GRILL
1. Insert the power plug into a 220-240V
power outlet and turn the power ON.
The red POWER light will illuminate.
2. Turn the variable temperature control
to SEAR for fast heat up. Allow the
grill to pre-heat with the top cooking
plate in the closed position until the
green READY light illuminates.
3. When the grill has preheated, place
the foods to be cooked onto the bottom
cooking plate. Always place foods towards
the rear of the bottom cooking plate.
NOTE
The grill can be used to cook foods in the
open or closed position.
4. Close the top cooking plate. The top
cooking plate has a oating hinge that
is designed to evenly press down on food.
The top plate must be fully lowered to
achieve grill marks on the selected foods.
5. Grilling times will depend on the food
being cooked.
6. Once food is cooked, use the handle
to open the grill and raise the top cooking
plate. Remove food with the help of a plastic
or wooden spatula. Never use metal tongs
or a knife as these can cause damage
to the non-stick coating.
TO USE AS A SANDWICH PRESS
1. Insert the power plug into a 220-240V
power outlet and turn the power ON.
The red POWER light will illuminate.
2. Turn the variable temperature control
to SANDWICH setting. Allow the grill to
preheat with the top cooking plate in the
closed position until the green READY
light illuminates.
3. When the sandwich press has pre-heated,
place the sandwich onto the bottom cooking
plate. Always place sandwiches towards
the rear of the bottom cooking plate.
4. Close the top cooking plate. The top plate
must be fully lowered to cook sandwiches.
5. Once the sandwich is cooked, use the
handle to open the grill and raise the
top cooking plate. Remove sandwich with
the help of a plastic or wooden spatula.
Never use metal tongs or a knife as these
can cause damage to the non-stick coating.
