ASSEMBLING YOUR NEW APPLIANCE
PREPARING THE GRILL FOR USE
1. Remove and safely discard any packing
material and promotional labels from
the grill.
2. Wipe the cooking plates and drip tray with
a soft damp sponge. Dry thoroughly.
3. Ensure the drip tray is correctly inserted
into the grill.
4. Ensure the cooking plates are correctly
inserted and securely locked into position.
5. Place the grill on a flat, dry surface. Ensure
there is a minimum distance of 10cm of
space on both sides of the appliance.
6. Remove probe from packaging and insert
jack into the socket on the front face of the
Probe Storage area located on the right
hand side of the grill. When not in use,
wrap probe cord around Probe Storage.
7. Unwind the power cord completely and
insert the power plug into a grounded
wall outlet.
8. The grill alert will sound and the LCD
screen will display OFF.
9. The grill is now ready for the
preheating cycle.
The grill features 2 x PLATE RELEASE. These
allow you to independently remove the top and
bottom cooking plates for easy cleaning, or to
interchange plate positions.
USING THE PLATE RELEASE
• To use the PLATE RELEASE:
− Always ensure the grill is completely cool.
Use the handle to open the top plate to a
90 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
off the grill.
• If the cooking plates are incorrectly
inserted, the LCD screen will display Er1.
Use the 2 x PLATE RELEASE to remove
the plates then re-insert so they securely
lock into position. Always ensure the grill
is completely cool before releasing and
removing the cooking plates.
• When the grill is turned on and heating
for the first time, it may emit a fine
smoke haze. This is due to the protective
substances on the heating elements.
It is safe and not detrimental to the
performance of the grill.

OPERATING YOUR NEW APPLIANCE OPERATING YOUR NEW APPLIANCE
PREHEATING THE GRILL
1. Ensure the top plate of the grill is in the
closed position, with the Height Control
Clip in the OPEN position. This will ensure
faster, more efficient preheating
2. Turn the PLATE TEMP dial to adjust the
temperature in 5°C increments. Rotate
the dial to SEAR (210°C–230 °C) for fast
preheating, PANINI (sandwich) (180°C–
205°C), LOW (160°C –175°C) or select an
alternative temperature.
3. The grill will start to heat and the LCD
screen will illuminate orange. Selected
temperature that corresponds to PLATE
TEMP will flash.
4. Once the grill has preheated to the selected
temperature, one alert will sound and the
selected PLATE TEMP will stop flashing.
NOTE
Always al low the grill to completely
preheat to the sele cted temperature
before cooking.
The temperat ure corresponding to
PLATE TEMP o n the LCD may flash
during the co oking process. This i s
normal , indicating that the corre ct
temperature i s being maintained .
ADJUSTABLE HEIGHT CONTROL
This feature reduces the weight of the top plate
on delicate foods like fish and accommodates
varying thicknesses of food like artisan breads.
Located on the right side of the top plate, the
clip fixes the top plate to a range 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.
ADJUSTABLE TILT CONTROL
The angle of the cooking plates can be
adjusted by turning the PLATE TILT dial.
The PLATE TILT dial is located on the lower
back, right side of the grill. The unique indent
between the two cooking plates channels juices
from both plates into the same drip tray while
cooking.
We recommend using:
• The angle position to drain fats for
healthier cooking
• The flat position for cooking eggs,
pancakes, Turkish bread, focaccias and
leaner meats.
TEMPERATURE CONVERSION
BUTTON
• The grill features a temperature conversion
button on the left side of the LCD screen.
The temperature reading on the grill is
preset to Celsius. Pressing the temperature
conversion button converts the Celsius
temperature reading into Fahrenheit. The
corresponding °C or °F symbol will be
displayed on the LCD screen.
• If you have changed the default Celsius
temperature reading to Fahrenheit, the
setting will remain in the memory of the
grill until the Temperature Conversion
Button is pressed a second time or the
grill is unplugged from the wall outlet.
When the grill is plugged back into the
wall outlet, the temperature reading will
automatically return to the preset
Celsius setting.
OPERATING YOUR NEW APPLIANCE
INTEGRATED PROBE WITH SMART
SETTINGS
The integrated probe with smart settings is
designed to help achieve consistent doneness
results when cooking different meats.
5 meat settings have pre-programmed
temperatures to suit your desired doneness.
The set temperatures for each meat are
displayed in the chart below.
DONENESS SET TEMPERATURES
Rare Medium Rare Medium Well Done
Beef 55˚C 60˚C 65˚C 75˚C
Lamb 55˚C 60˚C 65˚C 75˚C
Pork 65˚C 75˚C
Poultry 65˚C 75˚C
Fish 45˚C 50˚C 55˚C 65˚C
REST INDICATOR
Resting meat for 3–5 minutes once it is taken
off the grill is important as it allows the muscle
fibres to relax and the juices to spread evenly
throughout the meat, preventing juices and
flavour being lost as it is cut open.
When cooking to a desired doneness, it
is important to remove the meat from the
grill before it reaches the desired internal
temperature as residual heat will continue to
cook the meat during the rest phase.
The Smart Grill Pro™ has a REST MEAT
indicator, which alerts you to remove your meat
before the SET TEMP is reached to prevent
over cooking.
NOTE
The probe and sm art settings hav e
been optim ised for cooking in contact
mode with the P LATE TEMP dial
turned to S EAR (230°C).

CARE & CLEANINGGRILLING TIPS
GRILLING TIPS
Meats
Recommended cuts:
• Beef - sirloin (New York), rump, rib eye
(scotch fillet), fillet.
• Lamb - trim lamb leg steaks, fillet eye of
loin and cutlets.
• Pork - butterfly loin steaks, spare ribs, leg
steaks, fillets, diced pork.
• It is not recommended to cook items with
thick bones such as T-bone steaks.
• If using a marinade recipe or pre-
marinated meats from your meat retailer,
drain excess marinade off and dab the
meat with paper towel before placing on
the grill. Some marinades contain high
sugar levels which can scorch on the
cooking plate.
• Do not pierce meat with a fork or cut
meat while cooking. This will let the juices
escape, resulting in a tougher, dry steak.
Use tongs instead
• When removing fish pieces from the grill,
use a flat heat resistant plastic spatula to
support the food.
CARE & CLEANING
Ensure the grill is turned OFF by turning the
PLATE TEMP dial to the OFF position. The
grill is OFF when the LCD screen displays
OFF. Remove the power plug from the wall
outlet. Allow the grill to cool completely before
