BEFORE THE FIRST USE
•
Before using the appliance for the first time, remove and peel off
any promotional and packaging materials. Check that the cooking
plates are clean and free of dust.
•
Clean the Grill and the accessories (See "Cleaning and Care") and
place the appliance on a surface that is flat, dry, and heat
resistant. It is recommended to heat the Grill for about 10 minutes
without any foodstuff on its surfaces. This helps to eliminate any
grease that may have adhered during manufacturing and to
eliminate the "new" appliance smell.
•
Ventilate the room during this period. When your grill is heated for
the first time, it may emit slight smoke or odor. This is normal with
many heating appliances. This does not affect the safety of your
appliance.
OPERATION
•
Place the unit on a flat, dry, and heat resistant surface.
•
Select the grill or griddle side of the plates and follow the
instructions from the “How to remove the plates” section to remove
and/or attach the plates.
•
With the thermostat set to the lowest position, plug the appliance
in. The red “Power” light wil
l light up.
•
Position the fat collecting tray near the spout on the back of the
appliance.
•
Turn the thermostat knob to the desired temperature level. The
highest temperature is better aimed for searing or grilling meat. For
Paninis or sandwiches, we recommend a medium setting (330°F
)
.
For reheating, a low temperature setting is recommended (210°F
)
.
•
Preheat the grill to reach the ideal cooking temperature. When the
appliance reaches the desired temperature, the green pilot light
will light up. In order to preheat faster, keep the plates of the
appliance closed. Once the target temperature is reached, open
the grids to avoid overheating of the unit.
•
Apply a little oil or a non-stick cooking spray on the cooking plate if
needed. The food can then be placed on the grill.
