ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Place base on a clean, flat surface where you intend to cook.
2. One end of the base has a slot provided
for the drip tray. Slide the drip tray into
the base.
(see figure A.)
3. The cooking plate has two sides:
The Grill side with ribbed surface is
intended for grilling steaks, hamburgers,
chicken, seafood and vegetables.
(see figure B.)
The Griddle side with smooth
surface is perfect for frying bacon and
eggs, pancakes, French toast and toasted
sandwiches.
(see figure C.)
Choose the side
you intend to cook on and place the
cooking plate on the base with the chosen
side facing up. Make sure that the drip
holes in the cooking plate line up over
the drip tray.
4. Insert the temperature control probe into
the socket in the cooking plate on the
end opposite the drip holes. It will click
into place.
(see figure D.)
5. Plug the cord into a standard electrical outlet.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS:
Once the Grill & Griddle is assembled properly and you are ready
to begin cooking, turn the temperature control knob to the desired tem-
perature level. The indicator light will illuminate to indicate that the
power is on. It may take 10-12 minutes to reach operating tempera-
ture, depending on the temperature level that has been set. When the
thermostat has reached the desired temperature, the indicator light will
turn off, indicating that the Grill & Griddle is ready for cooking.
During operation, the light will continue to turn on and off as the
thermostat regulates the temperature. This is normal.
The temperature control is used to set and maintain the temperature
of the cooking surface. Temperatures range from about 150° on the
Warm setting to 450° on the Sear Setting. You may vary the setting
of the control knob at any time during cooking, and may wish to do so,
depending on the types of foods on the cooking plate. Refer to the
Cooked Food Temperature Chart on page 5 for recommendations.
CAUTION: Handles will become hot during use. The cooking plate
should not be removed from the base or flipped over while hot.
Allow unit to cool down for at least 30 minutes before handling.
The Grill & Griddle has a built-in safety feature that prevents the unit
from operating when the cooking plate is not on the base. If the cook-
ing plate is removed from the base while in use, the power will shut off.
NOTE: The first time you use your Grill & Griddle, it may have a slight
odor and smoke a bit. This is normal and common to appliances with
a nonstick surface.
To flip over to use reverse side
of plate:
1. Turn temperature control knob to
OFF setting.
2. Unplug appliance from wall outlet.
3. Pull out temperature control probe
from cooking plate.
