Before Your First Use
Carefully unpack the appliance and remove all packaging materials.
Remove the cooking plates and wash in warm soapy water or place in
the dishwasher.
We recommend a “trial run” at a high temperature to eliminate any
protective substance or oil that may have been used for packing and
shipping. Set the temperature to 450° and run for 15 minutes. You may
notice some smoking coming from your Tri-Grill during this initial phase.
WARNING:
Do not immerse the appliance, cord or plug in water.
Never operate this appliance without the grill plates locked into position
on the main housing. See “Assembling and Removing Plates” on pages
12 - 13.
To remove any dust that may have accumulated during packaging, wipe
the exterior with a clean, damp cloth.
Important:
Do not use harsh or abrasive cleansers on any part of the
appliance.
About Your Tri-Grill
Your Wolfgang Puck Tri-Grill is a versatile appliance that allows you to
grill food with the plates in three different positions. Grill with the plates
in a FLOAT position, with the grill opened FLAT for grill and griddle
cooking, or in a FIXED HEIGHT position, which is perfect for melting
cheese on open-faced sandwiches or hamburgers.
Using Your Tri-Grill
Place your Tri-Grill on a flat, level, stable surface. Your
Tri-Grill can be used in three different configurations.
The Hinge Selector (see figure 1) allows you to select
between Float, Flat, and Fixed Height. Always start in
the closed position (see figure 2) and then adjust the
Hinge Selector to your desired position. Ensure that
prior to preheating this appliance that you have the
desired plates locked into place.
WARNING:
To prevent a serious burn injury, always
ensure that your Tri-Grill is unplugged and has
completely cooled prior to removing or adding
plates. Always dry plates thoroughly prior to
installing on the unit.
Do not use metal utensils as they will scratch the
nonstick coating, use only nylon or plastic utensils.
Timer Feature
The Timer is a convenient feature for timing your cooking. The Timer bell
will ring once the set time has elapsed. Cooking will continue until you
manually turn the temperature control off. The Timer does not control
the power to your Tri-Grill.
