PREPARING THE GRILL FOR USE

material and promotional labels from
the grill.
2. Wipe the cooking plates and drip tray with
a soft damp sponge. Dry thoroughly.
3. Ensure the drip tray is correctly inserted
into the grill.

inserted and securely locked into position.

there is a minimum distance of 10cm of
space on both sides of the appliance.

jack into the socket on the front face of the
Probe Storage area located on the right
hand side of the grill. When not in use,
wrap probe cord around Probe Storage.

The grill features 2 x PLATE RELEASE. These
allow you to independently remove the top and
bottom cooking plates for easy cleaning, or to
interchange plate positions.
USING THE PLATE RELEASE
• To use the PLATE RELEASE:
− Always ensure the grill is completely cool.
Use the handle to open the top plate to a
90 degree position.
− Use the ‘Plate Release’ on the front, right
side of the top plate to remove the top
cooking plate, and the ‘Plate Release’
on the left side of the control panel to
remove the bottom cooking plate.
Once released, gently slide the plates
off the grill.
• If the cooking plates are incorrectly
inserted, the LCD screen will display Er1.
Use the 2 x PLATE RELEASE to remove
the plates then re-insert so they securely
lock into position. Always ensure the grill
is completely cool before releasing and
removing the cooking plates.
• When the grill is turned on and heating
for the first time, it may emit a fine
smoke haze. This is due to the protective
substances on the heating elements.
It is safe and not detrimental to the
performance of the grill.
