Introduction
This gourmet set is the ideal way to invite everyone to the table, wherever that table may be—wonderful it’s for gatherings, family dinners, entertaining, and everything in between. This set gives you a wide range of cooking options because it includes a cast aluminium plate with a grill and griddle side that can be turned around to create individual pancake slots. Your visitors will always experience simple nonstick release regardless of which side you use because of a ceramic nonstick coating with diamond infusion that is especially made for electrics. For melting cheeses, chocolates, and so much more, raclette pans are ideal. When you serve the dinner to everyone, invite them to the table.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY
POLARIZED PLUG This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way.
If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not modify the plug in any way.
A short supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards of becoming entangled in or tripping over a long cord. Extension cords may be used if care is exercised in their use. If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the detachable power-supply cord or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance. If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a grounded 3-wire cord. The extension cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter top or table top, where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over.

USING YOUR ULTIMATE GOURMET GRILL
- Place the base on a flat level surface.
- NOTE: Ensure that the area being used is well ventilated. Be careful of splattering fat or juice when grilling foods.
- Position the reversible grill/griddle plate over the heating element on the grill supports. Use the smooth side for warming, preparing fondue or breakfast foods, etc. Use the ridge side for gilling meats, fish, or vegetables.
- Heat the appliance for a few minutes on the highest setting until the green indicator light goes out.
- Rub your chosen cooking oil on the grill/griddle.
- Use the knob on the thermostat to select the desired temperature. In most cases, grilling should be done between the last three largest dots. The temperature may be adjusted during cooking for optimum cooking results.
- The Mini Pans can be moved on and off the Lower Plate as food is cooked and served.
- NOTE: Be sure to place the hot Mini Pans on a heat-resistant surface when removed from the Grill.
- Do not cut food on the Reversible Plate or in the Mini Pans as this may damage the coating.
- Never place empty Mini Pans on the appliance during use.
- To avoid damage to the Mini Pans, use only the spatulas supplied with them.
- When cooking is complete, turn the Temperature Control Dial counterclockwise to the smallest dot position on the left and remove plug from wall outlet.
- Do not move the unit until it is completely cool. Remove the Mini Pans before moving to prevent them from falling from the Lower Plate.

Frequently Asked Questions
Should Green Pan be seasoned?
Fry pans don’t need to be seasoned anymore to maintain their non-stick properties.
Why does my Green Pan have everything stuck on it?
This is why. Carbonization is the result of overheating and lubricants (a.k.a. those little spots that cause your food to stick to the pan). Be at ease, though! To remove them, use a melamine sponge, such as our Restore Sponge.
Can GreenPan withstand intense heat?
High heat has the potential to carbonise oil and fat, hastening the loss of non-stick properties. If this occurs, remove any loose food from the pan, partially fill it with warm water, and bring it to a fast boil. The food should readily remove with a sponge dampened with soap.
What causes ceramic pans to become less nonstick?
Utilizing sharp or metal utensils with a pan is the main reason why its non- stick coating wears off. When you do this, little scratches may develop on the porcelain. These scuffs enlarge with time, and the coating suffers as a result. Never fear; there are techniques you can use to re-nonstick your pan.
Can a GreenPan be used to boil water?
Induction stovetops are where GreenPan Craft shines, but it also operates superbly and consistently on all other heat sources, including in the oven. Utilizing the most cutting-edge ceramic nonstick available, simmer, brown, and boil.
Metal utensils okay for this product?
No.
Does the bottom section with the mini pans cook also?
Yes. That is where you use the small flat pans to cook eggs etc.
Can metal be used on GreenPan?
No, using any metal utensils is not something we advise. It is preferable to use wooden and nylon utensils to protect the ThermolonTM non-stick surface.
How safe is ceramic cookware?
Ceramic is fantastic since it is entirely inert, which means that dangerous poisons won’t leak from it. Heavy metals, polymers, coatings, and dyes are often absent from ceramic pans, and they are also dishwasher safe!
