• When the sandwich is cooked use the handle to open the lid. Remove the sandwich with
the help of a plastic spatula. Never use metal tongs or a knife as these can cause damage
to the non-stick coating of the cook plates.
• Use the Contact Grill as a Press grill to grill sandwiches, breads and quesadillas.
• The Contact Grill was designed with a unique handle and hinge that allows the cover to
adjust to the thickness of the food. You can easily grill anything from a thinly-sliced potato
to a thick sirloin steak with even results.
• When cooking more than one food item in the contact grill, it is important that the thick-
ness of food items is consistent so the cover will close evenly on the food.
To Use as Open grill
• Place Contact Grill on a clean flat surface where you intend to cook. The Contact Grill can
be positioned in flat position. Hinge Release Lever.
• Upper plate/cover is level with lower plate/base. The upper and lower plates line up to
create one large cooking surface. Angle button.
• With you left hand on the handle, use your right hand to slide the lever toward you. Push
the handle back until the cover rests flat on the counter. The unit will stay in this position
until you lift the handle and cover to return it to the closed position.
• Use the Contact Grill as an open grill to cook burgers, steak, poultry (we do not recom-
mend cooking bone-in chicken, since it does not cook evenly on an open grill), fish and
vegetables.
• Cooking on the open grill is the most versatile method of using the Contact Grill. In the
open position, you have double the surface area for grill.
• You have the option of cooking different types of foods on separates without combining
their flavors, or cooking large amounts of the same type of food. The open position also
accommodates different cuts of meat with varying thicknesses, allowing you to cook each
piece to your liking.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
• Always unplug the Contact Grill and allow it to cool before cleaning. The unit is easier
to clean when slightly warm. There is no need to disassemble Contact Grill for cleaning.
Never immerse the Contact Grill in water or place in dishwasher.
• Wipe cooking plates with a soft to remove food residue. For baked on food residue
squeeze some warm water mixed with detergent over the food residue then clean with a
non abrasive plastic scouring pad or place wet kitchen paper over the grill to moisten the
food residue.
• Do not use anything abrasive that can scratch or damage the non-stick coating.
• Do not use metal utensils to remove your foods, they can damage the non-stick surface.
• Wipe the outside of the contact grill with a damp cloth only. Do not clean the outside with
any abrasive scouring pad or steel wool, as this will damage the finish. Do not immerse in
water or any other liquid.
• Do not place in the dishwasher.
