OPERATING YOUR NEW APPLIANCE
BEFORE FIRST USE
Remove and safely discard any packaging material or promotional labels before
using your grill for the first 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 first time you may notice a fine smoke haze. This
is caused by the heating of some of the components. There is no need for
concern.
TO USE AS A GRILL
- Insert the power plug into a 220240V power outlet and turn the power ON. The red POWER light will illuminate.
- 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.
- 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.
- Close the top cooking plate. The top cooking plate has a floating 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
- Grilling times will depend on the food being cooked.
- Once food is cooked remove food with the help of a plastic or wooden spatula.
NOTE
Always allow the grill to pre-heat until the green READY light illuminates.
TO USE AS A SANDWICH PRESS
- Insert the power plug into a 220240V power outlet and turn the power ON. The red POWER light will illuminate.
- urn 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.
- 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.
- Close the top cooking plate. The top plate must be fully lowered to cook sandwiches.
- Toasting should take approximately 58 minutes. Exact toasting time will be a matter of taste. It will also depend on the type of bread and type of filling used.
- Once food is cooked remove food with the help of a plastic or wooden spatula.
USING THE ADJUSTABLE GRILLING HEIGHT CONTROL FEATURE
Adjustable height control feature allows you to fix the top plate to a range of positions above the bottom plate. This allows your grill to be used to grill delicate ingredients such as fish, hamburger buns and open sandwiches without squashing.
-
Turn the variable temperature control to SEAR or SANDWICH setting and allow the grill to pre-heat until the green READY light illuminates.
-
Place food to be grilled or your sandwich to be melted on the bottom plate.
-
Move the adjustable height control clip on the right hand side of the grill to the desired height.
-
Slowly lower the top plate until it rests on the adjustable height control clip.
-
The top plate will radiate the desired heat to lightly grill foods or melt ingredients such as cheese. Grilling and toasting times will be a matter of taste
USING THE ANGLE ADJUST NON-SLIP FEET
Your grill features unique extendable feet which are designed to level the bottom plate when cooking foods such as sausages. This ensures the sausages do not roll off the hotplate but still drain the maximum amount of fat while cooking.
VARIABLE TEMPERATURE CONTROL DIAL
The grill features a variable temperature control dial. With the dial set on SEAR the temperature is correctly suited to grill meats or other foods.
With the dial set on SANDWICH the temperature is correctly suited to toasting
sandwiches. The variable temperature control dial allows you to select a
setting suited to the foods which are being cooked.
CARE & CLEANING
Before cleaning, switch the power off at the power outlet and then remove the
power plug. Allow your grill to cool before cleaning. The grill is easier to
clean when slightly warm.
Always clean your grill after each use to prevent a build up of baked-on
foods.
Wipe cooking plates with a soft cloth to remove food residue. For baked on
food residue squeeze some warm water mixed with detergent over the food
residue then clean with a non abrasive plastic scouring pad.
CLEANING THE DRIP TRAY
Remove and empty the drip tray after each use and wash the tray in warm, soapy
water.
Alternatively the drip tray can be cleaned in the dishwasher.
STORAGE
To store your grill:
- Switch off the grill and unplug power cord from the power outlet.
- Allow the grill to fully cool.
- Slide the height control clip towards the front handle to the LOCK position so that the top and bottom cooking plates are locked together.
- Click the removable drip tray into place.
- Wrap the power cord in the cord storage area below the grill.
- Store on a flat, dry level surface. Can be stored vertically.
DURABLE NON-STICK COATING
Cooking on a non-stick surface minimises the need for oil, food does not stick and cleaning is easier. Any discolouration that may occur will not affect the cooking performance. When cleaning the non-stick coating, do not use metal (or other abrasive) scourers. Wash with warm soapy water. Remove stubborn residue with a non abrasive plastic scouring pad or nylon washing brush.
