Operation
The Birko Toaster Griller has upper and lower elements which can be used together or alternatively, the top
element can be used on its own. This can provide flexibility when toasting and grilling.
The Toaster Griller is also fitted with a timer and an energy regulator which allows cooking continuously or
by time, please see below for further details.
Cooking by Time
Select the style of toasting/grilling by selecting both elements or alternatively select the upper element by
pressing the element control switch. Adjust the timer dial to the desired time of cooking. When the time is
selected the elements will automatically be activated at full power, when time has lapsed the elements will
automatically switch off. For this cooking method ensure the energy regulator is turned to “OFF”.
*Note: If the elements are not required to turn off completely, adjust the energy regulator dial to low, this will
keep the elements on after the time has lapsed. This will help to keep the product warm and will also allow
for faster reheat when required.
Continuous Cooking
Select the style of toasting/grilling by selecting both elements or alternatively select the upper element by
pressing the element control switch.
When cooking continuously be sure the timer dial is turned to the ‘OFF’ position. Using the energy regulator
dial select the desired temperature. When selected the elements will automatically switch on, when finished
turn the energy regulator dial back to the off position. The timer will over ride the energy regulator if it is not
in the ‘OFF’ position.
