Specifications

Before first use

WARNING!
Make sure that the meat grill has been unplugged from the mains socket before cleaning it.

• Wipe the cooking plates and the unit ( Cleaning and maintenance).
• Lightly grease the cooking plates with cooking oil and follow the instructions provided in the section below to heat the unit for a few minutes (without food) until the initial smoke clears.
• The unit is now ready for use.
• NOTE: The unit may emit a small amount of smoke and slight odor during its first use. This is normal as the internal components are being heated up for the first time and will disappear after a few minutes.

Use

Important:

• We recommend placing a non-slip heat-resistant mat under the unit to protect your surface from heat.
• Never use metal or sharp utensils on the unit as these could damage the non-stick coating. Use wooden or heat-resistant spatulas/tongs to handle food.
• Do not cut food on the cooking plate to avoid scratching the non-stick coating.
• Do not rest utensils on the cooking plates.
• Never cook frozen food on the meat grill, as this could damage the unit. Make sure that the food has completely defrosted before cooking it.

1. Open the storage lock on the right-hand side of the meat grill, then lift the handle to open the lid (as shown in Fig. ).

2. Lightly grease the cooking plates with cooking oil and close the lid.

3. To turn on the meat grill, firmly insert the power cable’s plug into a suitable mains socket.

   • The preheating indicator will turn on when the meat grill heats up and go off when the unit is ready for use. The preheating process takes about 3 minutes.

4. When the preheating indicator goes off, open the lid and place the food on the lower cooking plate. Gently lower the lid to simultaneously grill the food on both sides. This meat grill is perfect for toasting bread or paninis and searing thin slices of lean (boneless) meats or vegetables.

5. When grilling meat or vegetables, you can spread a thin layer of butter or margarine over the cooking plates.

   • The lid has been designed with a pivot that allows the top cooking plate to automatically adjust to the thickness of the food, thus ensuring an even pressure for optimal grilling results.
     NOTE:

   • During the cooking process, the preheating indicator will intermittently turn on and off while the meat grill’s thermostat automatically adjusts the temperature.

   • Always make sure that the food is thoroughly cooked before eating it.

6. When the food is cooked as desired, lift the handle to open the lid and remove the food using a heat-resistant utensil.

7. If you have not finished cooking at this point, close the lid to conserve the heat.
   WARNING!
   To prevent the unit from overheating, do not leave it plugged in when not in use. If it will take you some time to prepare the next batch of food, unplug the unit until you are ready to use it again.

8. Use tongs to wipe any excess oil off the cooking plate with kitchen roll.

9. When you have finished using the meat grill, unplug it from the mains socket to turn it off.

WARNING – RISK OF BURNS!

• The unit’s lid, cooking plates and metal surfaces can become very hot. Do not touch hot surfaces. Always use the handle.
• Wear heat-resistant oven gloves to protect your hands from burns whilst cooking.
•  Take special care when cooking food. Oils, fats and hot juices may splatter when grilling. Stand a safe distance away from the unit.

COOKING TIPS:

• This unit heats up and cooks fairly quickly. To make the cooking process more efficient, prepare all the ingredients before turning the grill on.
• The cooking time depends on the thickness of the food, type of meat/food and the temperature of the grill. When grilling meat or vegetables in the unit, cut them into thin slices in order to ensure that they can be cooked properly.
• Squeeze any excess juice from the ingredients before placing them on the meat grill.
• To prevent food from sticking to the cooking plates, always preheat the grill and lightly grease the food or cooking plates with cooking oil or butter. Use lard for a more intense flavour.
• Always cook food in several batches. Avoid overloading the grill to prevent food from being undercooked.
