FITTING THE REMOVABLE PLATES
This grill has two removable plates. Fit one grill plate at a time.
NOTE: This appliance must always be used with two grill plates securely attached.
•
Before handling, ensure the grill plates are cool and safe to touch.
•
Align the tabs of each grill plate with slots near the hinge side of the grill (see diagram).
•
Press down on the other edge of the plate (handle side) to lock it into place.
•
To remove the plates, press the release button on the side of the grill and lift away from
the element. Note that there is one button for the upper grill plate and one button for the
lower grill plate.
CAUTION: Always unplug from the wall power outlet and ensure the grill is completely
cool before attaching or removing plates.
NOTE: When the upper and lower plates make contact, the coating may show slight
signs of wear. This is purely cosmetic and will not affect the operation of the grill.
CONDITION THE COOKING PLATES
NOTE: Conditioning the cooking plates will help prolong the life of the non-stick
coating.
• Lift the lid and wipe the upper and lower cooking plates lightly with cooking oil.
• Switch the power on at the wall power outlet. The power light will illuminate.
Allow the thermostat light to cycle on and off at least 2 times.
• Switch the power off at the wall power outlet, remove the plug and allow the grill
to cool.
• Wipe off any excess oil with a dry paper towel and close the lid.
USING YOUR GRILL
• Place the grill on a flat, level, heat resistant surface, leaving enough space around all
sides to allow heat to flow without damage to cabinets, walls and overhanging curtains.
• Ensure that the upper and lower grill plates have been securely fitted onto the grill.
(Refer to section: FITTING THE REMOVABLE PLATES).
• Place the drip tray under the front of the grill.
• Using the handle, close the lid.
• Plug the power cord into a power outlet and turn the power on. The power light will
illuminate.

NOTE: The thermostat light will cycle on and off during cooking as the grill maintains
temperature.

cooking plate.
