OPERATION
INITIAL SET-UP
The PANINI XL/XLE requires the installation of four (4) legs, two (2) utensil shelves and
the front drip tray.
Take the unit out of the box. Position it carefully on its top on a flat, nonabrasive work
surface. Remove four (4) legs and two (2) utensil shelves from the packaging. Align
bigger cutouts in one of the utensil shelves with the threaded mounting holes for the legs
located along one of the sides of the grill. Attach two legs to the body of the unit, thus
securing the utensil shelf. Make sure that the legs are attached tightly against the body.
Repeat the procedure with the
second utensil shelf. Put the grill in its working position. DO
NOT use legs as the lever when turning the unit. Insert the drip tray into the aperture at the
front of the grill.
The grill is shipped with an application of protective oil on the upper and lower grill
plates. This oil will need to be removed prior to the seasoning process using a mild
soap and water solution.
