Maintenance
Disconnect the plug from the socket and let the appliance cool down well before cleaning it.
To clean, open the appliance and remove food residues from the plates.
For cleaning of the plates, use a sponge or a soft cloth dampened with hot water; do not use steel wool or other
abrasive items which could damage the non-stick coating.
In order to clean the appliance, use a soft or slight damp cloth.
Do not use very wet substances, liquids or cloths to prevent water from entering into the appliance and irreparably
damaging it.
NEVER IMMERSE THE APPLIANCE INTO THE WATER.
USE OF THE CONTACT GRILL
Lightly coat the cooking plates with a little butter or cooking oil.
Close the grill and insert the mains plug into the wall socket. Adjust the thermostat to the desired position
depending on the type of food and the level of cooking preferred (it is recommended to use the medium position
for bread and the MAX position for meat). The red power on light and the green indicator light will turn on.
Wait until the green light goes out. The appliance has reached the correct
temperature for use.
Open the grill using the handle (1) and put the food on the lower grill (you can
cook sandwiches, burgers, pieces of meat without bones and vegetables).
The sandwiches must be positioned in the rear part of the grill. If you decide
to cook different foods, it is important that these have approximately the same
thickness so that the upper grill adheres evenly on the foods. Close the upper
grill.
Position the cups (7) in correspondence with the chute (8) to collect any
grease residues.
The cooking time varies according to the food, to the set temperature and to personal tastes.
For sandwiches, the indicative cooking time ranges from 3 to 6 minutes. It is possible to check the status of
cooking by lifting the upper grill.
Note: During the cooking process, the green indicator light turns on and then off to maintain the appliance at the
correct temperature.
When cooking is finished, lift the upper grill and use a non-metallic utensil (for example, wooden spatula) to
remove the food. Do not use sharp or abrasive kitchen utensils.
After use, unplug the appliance from the socket and wait for it to cool down. Clean the appliance as indicated
in the MAINTENANCE paragraph. Close the locking lever (3) in order to move the appliance by the handle (1)
and store the appliance.
The locking lever can be used to limit the closure of the grill. The adjustable positions are at two different heights.
USE AS A 180° OPEN GRILL
To open the grill to 180°, just press the red side button (4) and, using the handle, rotate the
upper plate until complete opening.
Lightly coat the cooking plates with a little butter or cooking oil.
Insert the mains plug into the wall socket and adjust the thermostat to the desired position.
The red power on light and the green indicator light will turn on.
Wait until the green light goes out. The appliance has reached the correct temperature for
use and it is possible to place the food to be cooked on it.
Position the cups (7) in correspondence with the chutes (8) to collect
any grease residues.
After use, unplug the appliance from the socket and wait for it to
cool down. Clean the appliance as indicated in the MAINTENANCE
paragraph. Close the locking lever (3) in order to move the appliance
by the handle (1) and store it.
