Depending on the recipe and/or the grilled food product and/or its size or quantity, the press grill can be used in two configurations:
- With the hot plates closed: the top and down sides of food products are grilled at the same time; the food products are processed fast and with a well-controlled, nearly uniform doneness on both sides.
- With the hot plates open: this configuration is the next best thing to natural grilling on an open flame; the grilling surface is two times bigger than when the hot plates are closed.
BEFORE FIRST USE
-
Unpack the press grill and remove all plastic bags, labelling stickers, filling materials and transport locks.
-
Verify that the power ratings on the rating plate of the press grill match your power mains system.
-
Slide the top lid slider latch ❺ open (to the ‘open padlock’ mark) and lift the top lid ❷ open. The top lid can be locked closed with the top lid slider latch at the ‘closed padlock’ mark.
-
Clean the hot plates ❸ and the fat drip pans ⓬ thoroughly with a wet cloth and wipe them dry.
-
Before grilling for the first time, the hot plates must be properly conditioned by running them hot.
Place the press grill on a firm, dry, level and smooth surface, plug the power cord to the mains, and set the thermostat knob ❼ to ‘Dark’. Leave it running for 5 minutes. Next, unplug the press grill from the mains and wait until it cools down completely. The hot plates may smoke slightly during this process. This is natural and will no recur during further use. -
Wipe the hot plates with a damp cloth and wipe them dry.
USING THE PRESS GRILL WITH CLOSED HOT PLATES
CAUTION! Before starting the press grill, make sure it is dry and that the room is well ventilated.
-
Place the press grill on a firm, dry, level and smooth surface.
-
Place one of the fat drip pans ⓬ under the mouth of the fat gutter ⓫.
-
Unlock the top lid slider latch ❺ and lift the top lid upright.
CAUTION! Lift the top lid ❷ by the handle ❻ only. -
Spread some cooking fat on the hot plates ❸. Close the top lid.
-
Plug in the press grill to the mains. The power indicator lamp ❾ will go on. The thermostat indicator lamp ❽ will be on when the hotplates are heating up.
Set the desired grilling temperature with the thermostat knob ❼. The ‘Light’ setting is for slow grilling of heat-sensitive food products. The ‘Dark’ setting is for grilling meat. The thermostat indicator lamp ❽ will go off once the set temperature is reached. -
Lift the top lid, place the food products on the bottom hot plate, and close the top lid while gently pressing it down. If the food products to be grilled are fragile, lock the top lid ajar by moving the top lid slider latch ❺ to the mark ‘I’ (wide ajar) or ‘II’ (narrow ajar). The grilling time will depend on the type of the food products to be processed. The press grill can be used to process meat, fish, shish kebabs, vegetables, etc.
-
The thermostat indicator lamp ❽ will go on and off during use. This means that the press grill is maintaining the set temperature.
-
Hot steam may burst when opening and closing the top lid to check the doneness. This is a normal effect of processing food with heat. Adjust the grilling temperature with the thermostat knob according to the desired grilling effect.
-
The fat melted out of the food will flow out of the fat gutter ⓫ to the fat drip pan ⓬. Empty the fat drip pan frequently to prevent overflow and spills. CAUTION! Risk of burns! The fat flowing out to the fat drip pan is hot!
-
Remove the processed food from the press grill with grilling tongs or utensils made of wood. Do not use metal utensils, they might damage the non-stick coating of the hot plates.
-
When done grilling, you can either put another serving in the press grill, or turn off the press grill: turn the thermostat knob to ‘0’ and unplug the power cord from the mains.
-
Leave the press grill to cool down and clean it as explained in Section “CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE”.
USING THE GRILL WITH OPEN HOT PLATES
CAUTION! Before starting the press grill, make sure it is dry and that the room is well ventilated.
-
Place the press grill on a firm, dry, level and smooth surface.
-
Press and hold down the top lid upright lock ❹ while lifting the top plate ❷ all the way to the back until the handle ❻ is resting on the surface. Both hot plates are now facing up (Fig. 1). CAUTION! Do not open the press grill completely when hot.
-
Place a fat drip pan ⓬ under the fat gutter ⓫ of each hot plate.
-
Spread some cooking fat on the hot plates ❸.
-
Plug in the press grill to the mains. The power indicator lamp ❾ will go on. The thermostat indicator lamp ❽ will be on when the hot plates are heating up. Set the desired grilling temperature with the thermostat knob ❼. The ‘Light’ setting is for slow grilling of heat-sensitive food products. The ‘Dark’ setting is for grilling meat. The thermostat indicator lamp ❽ will go off once the set temperature is reached.
-
Place the food to be grilled on both hot plates. The grilling type will depend on what food products you want to process. Flip the food over after some time to have it done even. Adjust the grilling temperature with the thermostat knob according to the desired grilling effect.
-
The thermostat indicator lamp ❽ will go on and off during use. This means that the press grill is maintaining the set temperature. The thermostat indicator lamp ❼ will do this more frequently, since the hot plates are open wide, cool down faster and must be reheated more often.
-
The fat melted out of the food will flow out of the fat gutters ⓫ to the fat drip pans ⓬. Empty the fat drip pans frequently to prevent overflow and spills.
CAUTION! Risk of burns! The fat flowing out to the fat drip pan is hot! -
Remove the processed food from the press grill with grilling tongs or utensils made of wood. Do not use metal utensils, they might damage the non-stick coating of the hot plates.
-
When done grilling, you can either put another serving in the press grill, or turn off the press grill: turn the thermostat knob to ‘0’ and unplug the power cord from the mains.
-
Leave the press grill to cool down and clean it as explained in Section “CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE”.
CAUTION! Do not close the top lid until the press grill cools down completely. Risk of burns!
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
-
Before attempting to clean the press grill (and when done grilling), unplug it from the mains and wait until it cools down.
CAUTION! Do not submerge the press grill in water or other liquids! Do not wipe the hot plates with rough scourers or sponges as you may damage the hot plates. -
Clean the hot plates of fat with paper tower. Next, wipe the hot plates gently with a slightly damp, soft cloth and finally wipe them dry. If the grime is persistent, spread some cooking oil to make it come off easier.
CAUTION! Do not let water penetrate underneath the hot plates when cleaning. This may damage the press grill with a risk of electrocution! -
Wash the fat drip pans with lukewarm water and a mild dishwashing detergent, rinse them clean, and leave to dry. The fat drip pans are NOT dishwasher safe.
-
Clean the outer surfaces of the press grill with a damp cloth and wipe them dry.
