USE AS A CONTACT GRILL
OR PANINI PRESS
1. Ensure the drip tray is correctly inserted
into the grill.
2. Ensure the cooking plates are correctly
inserted and securely locked into position.
3. Place the grill on a flat, dry surface. Ensure
there is a minimum distance of 20cm of
space on both sides of the appliance.
4. Unwind the power cord completely and
insert the power plug into a grounded
wall outlet.
5. Press the POWER button. The grill alert
will sound and the POWER light will go on.
6. To preheat the grill:
a) Ensure the top plate of the grill is closed.
This will ensure faster, more efficient
preheating.
b) Turn the temperature dials to 230°C
on both lower and upper plates.
Alternatively, press the PANINI or
BURGER preset buttons for fast
preheating. The grill will start to heat and
the ‘PREHEATING’ red light will go ON.
c) Allow the grill to preheat.
7. Once the grill has preheated to the
selected temperature, the grill alert will
sound and ‘PREHEATING’ will no longer
illuminate. The ‘READY’ light will go ON.
8. Place food on the bottom cooking plate.
9. Use the handle to close the top cooking
plate. The top cooking plate has two
features designed to produce optimum
cooking results:
a) Floating top plate. The top cooking
plate is hinged, allowing the top plate to
be positioned horizontally on the food
surface. This ensures the front of the
food is as evenly cooked as the back.
It also allows the top plate to float above
the food surface, radiating heat to
create open sandwich style ‘melts’.
b) Adjustable height control. This
feature reduces the weight of the top
plate on delicate foods like fish and
accommodates varying thicknesses
of food like artisan breads. Located
on the right side of the top plate, the
clip fixes the top plate to a range of
positions above the bottom plate. To
set the adjustable height control, use
the handle to lift the top plate and
simultaneously move the adjustable
height control clip to the desired
height. Then slowly lower the top plate
until it rests on the adjustable height
control clip.
10. When the food is cooked, remove from
the cooking plates using heat proof plastic
or wooden utensils.
