BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME
Wipe the grill plates with a damp cloth.
Your grill may smoke a little the first time you use it. This is normal and will soon disappear.
TILTING/LEVELLING THE GRILL
You can tilt your grill so that fat and juices run into the drip tray when cooking things like
burgers, meat, etc. Alternatively, you can use your grill level for cooking things like panini,
sandwiches, etc.
To tilt your grill, extend the foot upwards below your grill (Fig. A). Fold the foot flat again to
level your grill.
USING YOUR GRILL
• Sit your grill on a stable, level, heat-resistant surface, away from cupboards, curtains,
etc.
• Slide the drip tray between the two runners underneath the front of your grill. Slide the
tray all the way in. The drip tray will collect any fat or juices that run off the plates during
cooking.
• Put the plug into the power socket. The power light will come on.
• The grill plates will now start heating up.
• When the thermostat light comes on your grill is at the correct cooking temperature.
• The light will cycle on and off as the thermostat operates to maintain the temperature.
• Open your grill and carefully lay the food on the bottom grill plate. Use a spatula or
tongs.
• Close the grill.
• When you have finished cooking unplug your grill.
• Check that the food is cooked. If you’re in any doubt, cook it a bit more.
• Always use an oven glove when opening or closing the grill.
• Use wooden or plastic utensils to prevent damage to the plates.
• The grill hinge is articulated to accommodate thick or oddly shaped foods.
• The grill plates should be roughly parallel to avoid uneven cooking.
• When neccessary, use an oven glove and empty the drip tray into a heatproof bowl.
Wipe it with kitchen paper then replace it under the front of your grill.
