before using for the first time

Wipe the cooking plates with a damp cloth.

grill or griddle?

1  The grill and griddle are independent. You may use each one on its own, or both of them 
 

together. Each has its own temperature control and light.

2  Each  temperature control is marked 0 (off) to 3 (max).
3  Each light will come on while its element heats up, it’ll go off when it reaches the correct
 

temperature, then cycle on and off with the thermostat.

preparation

4  Prepare any garnish (cucumber, tomato, etc.), and split your buns or rolls.
5  Cut the food to be grilled no more than 25mm thick.
6  Centre the drip tray under the front of the grill, so it catches any run-off. 
7  Wipe the cooking plates with a little cooking oil or butter, then close it. Don’t use low fat 
 

spread – it may burn on to the grill.

8  Put the plug into the power socket (switch the socket on, if 
 it’s 

switchable).

using the griddle

9  Use the griddle for eggs, tomatoes, mushrooms, or other
 

delicate foods that might be crushed or flattened in the grill.

10  Turn the control to the setting you want, wait till the light
 

goes off, then start cooking.

11  Lay the food on the cooking plate with a spatula or tongs, not fingers.
12  The griddle cooks on one side, so it’s slower than the grill, and you’ll have to turn the food to 
 

cook it on both sides.

using the grill

13  Turn the control to the setting you want, wait till the light goes off, then start cooking.
14  Lay the food on the bottom cooking plate with a spatula or tongs, not fingers.
15  Close the grill. The hinge is articulated to cope with thick or oddly shaped foods.
16  The cooking plates should be roughly parallel, to avoid uneven cooking.

remove the food

17  Check it’s cooked. If you’re in doubt, cook it a bit more.
18  Use wooden or plastic tools to remove the food.

finished?

19  Unplug the grill (switch the socket off first, if it’s switchable).

more?

20  Put on the oven glove, empty the drip tray into a heatproof bowl, then give it a wipe with 
 

kitchen paper, and put it under the front of the grill.

care and maintenance

1  Unplug the grill and let it cool before cleaning and storing away.
2  Wipe all surfaces with a clean damp cloth. Use a paper towel moistened with a little cooking 
 

oil to remove stubborn stains.

3  Wash the drip tray in warm soapy water, or in the top rack of the dishwasher.
4  Take extra care with the non-stick cooking surfaces.
5  Don’t put the grill in water or any other liquid. Don’t use harsh or abrasive cleaning agents, 
 

solvents, scourers, wire wool, or soap pads.
