OPERATION
BEFORE FIRST USE
Check that the cooking plates are clean and free of dust. If necessary,
wipe over with a soft damp cloth. Dry thoroughly.
NOTE
• When using the grill for the first time you may notice a fine smoke haze.
This is caused by the heating of some of the components. There is no
need for concern.
• The grill can be used as a grill for searing meats and vegetables or as
a sandwich press for toasting breads and focaccias. It also features an
adjustable height control feature which allows you to fix the top plate to
a range of positions above the bottom plate.
TO USE AS A GRILL
1. Turn the power ON. The red POWER light will illuminate.
2. Turn the variable temperature control to SEAR for fast heat up.
Allow the grill to pre-heat with the top cooking plate in the closed
position until the green READY light illuminates.
3. When the grill has preheated, place the foods to be cooked onto the
bottom cooking plate. Always place foods towards the rear of the
bottom cooking plate.
4. Close the top cooking plate.
5. Once food is cooked, use the handle to open the grill and raise the
top cooking plate. Remove food with the help of a plastic or
wooden spatula.
NOTE
Always allow the grill to pre-heat until the green READY light illuminates.
