ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS:
1.
Place base on a clean, flat surface
where you intend to cook.
2.
One end of the base has a slot
provided for the drip tray. Slide the
drip tray into the base. (see figure A.)
3. The cooking plate has two sides: The
Grill side with ribbed surface is
intended for grilling steaks, hamburg-
ers, chicken, seafood and vegetables.
(see figure B.) The Griddle side with
smooth surface is perfect for frying
bacon and eggs, pancakes, French
toast and toasted sandwiches. (see
figure C.) Choose the side you intend
to cook on and place the cooking
plate on the base with the chosen side
facing up. Make sure that the drip
holes in the cooking plate line up over
the drip tray.
4.
Insert the temperature control probe
into the socket in the cooking plate on
the end opposite the drip holes. It will
click into place. (see figure D.)
5. Plug the cord into a standard electrical
outlet. As a precaution please check to ensure the cord plug is
not loosely connected to the electrical outlet. Loose fitting
connections can lead to overheating.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS:
Once the Grill & Griddle is assembled properly and you are ready to
begin cooking, turn the temperature control knob to the desired
temperature level. The indicator light will illuminate to indicate that the
power is on. It may take 10-12 minutes to reach operating tempera-
ture, depending on the temperature level that has been set. When the
thermostat has reached the desired temperature, the indicator light
will turn off, indicating that the Grill & Griddle is ready for cooking.
During operation, the light will continue to turn on and off as the
thermostat regulates the temperature. This is normal. The temperature
control is used to set and maintain the temperature of the cooking
surface. Temperatures range from about 150°F (66°C) on the Warm
setting to 450°F (232°C) on the Sear Setting. You may vary the setting
of the control knob at any time during cooking, and may wish to do
so, depending on the types of foods on the cooking plate. Refer to
the
Cooked Food Temperature Chart
on page 5 for recommenda-
tions.
CAUTION:
Handles will become hot during use. The cooking plate
should not be removed from the base or flipped over while hot. Allow
unit to cool down for at least 30 minutes before handling.
The Grill & Griddle has a built-in safety feature that prevents the unit
from operating when the cooking plate is not on the base. If the
cooking plate is removed from the base while in use, the power will
shut off.
NOTE:
The first time you use your Grill & Griddle, it may have a slight
odour and smoke a bit. This is normal and common to appliances
with a nonstick surface.
To flip over to use reverse side of
plate:
1. Turn temperature control knob to
OFF setting.
2. Unplug appliance from wall outlet.
3. Pull out temperature control probe
from cooking plate.
4. Allow unit to cool down completely.
5. Carefully slide out the drip tray and dispose of its contents. Clean
tray and replace in base. (see
Cleaning, care and maintenance
).
6. Thoroughly clean cooking plate. (see
Cleaning, care and
maintenance
).
7. Hold cooking plate by the handles when removing from base,
flipping plate over, and returning to base.
8. Make sure that holes in plate line up over drip tray.
