Instructions for Use

Before First Use

STEP 1 : Check that the health grill is switched off and unplugged from the mains power supply.
STEP 2 : Wipe the health grill housing with a soft, damp cloth and dry thoroughly.
STEP 3 : Clean the accessories in warm, soapy water, then rinse and dry thoroughly.
Do not immerse the health grill in water or any other liquid.
Never use harsh or abrasive cleaning detergents or scourers to clean the health grill or its accessories, as this could cause damage.

Note : When using the health grill for the first time, a slight smoke or odour may be emitted. This is normal and will soon subside. Allow for sufficient ventilation around the health grill.

Using the XL Fold-out Health Grill & Panini Maker

STEP 1 : Prepare the ingredients that are to be cooked.
STEP 2 : Plug in and switch on the health grill at the mains power supply, making sure that the temperature control dial is set to the ‘off’ position. The red power and green ready indicator lights will illuminate, indicating that the health grill has been switched on.
STEP 3 : Select the required temperature (see the table for temperature settings) by turning the temperature control dial in a clockwise direction; the green ready indicator light will turn off, signalling that the health grill is heating up.
STEP 4 : Preheat the health grill for approx. 5-8 minutes. The green ready indicator light will illuminate once the required temperature has been reached.
STEP 5 : Position the drip tray underneath the end of the oil channel.
STEP 6 : When using as a panini maker/health grill, place the prepared ingredients onto the lower cooking plate and then close the lid.
If using the health grill as a griddle plate, push the locking catch upwards and open the health grill so that it lies flat. Place the prepared ingredients onto the cooking plates. If only one cooking plate is needed, ensure that the lower cooking plate is used for optimum cooking performance.
STEP 7 : Cook for approx. 3–8 minutes, depending upon the type of ingredients and the temperature used.
STEP 8 : Once cooking is complete, remove the food with a heat-resistant plastic or wooden spatula.
STEP 9 : To turn off the health grill, turn the temperature control dial in an anticlockwise direction to the ‘off’ position.
STEP 10 : Switch off and unplug the health grill from the mains power supply. Leave the lid open and allow to cool.

Note : Always preheat the cooking plates before starting to cook.
Carefully apply a thin coat of cooking oil to the cooking plates, rubbing it in carefully with a paper towel. This will help to prolong the life of the non-stick coating.
During use the green ready indicator will cycle on and off to indicate that the health grill is maintaining the selected temperature.
Using the health grill as a griddle plate will increase the amount of runoff; exercise caution and ensure that the drip tray is emptied regularly to prevent it from overflowing.
Caution : The cooking plates get very hot during use; always use heat- resistant gloves to avoid injury.
Warning : Exercise caution during cooking; the health grill will emit steam.

Storage

Check that the health grill is cool, clean and dry before storing in a cool, dry place.
Never store the health grill whilst it is wet.
Never wrap the cord tightly around the health grill; wrap it loosely to avoid causing damage.
