USE AS OPEN GRILL
• Place Grill Toaster on a clean flat surface where you intend to cook. The
Grill Toaster can be positioned in flat position.
• Upper plate/cover is level with lower plate/base. The upper and lower
plates line up to create one large cooking surface. The Grill Toaster to this
position, locate the hinge release lever on the right arm.
• With you left hand on the handle, use your right hand to slide the lever
toward you. Push the handle back until the cover rests flat on the counter.
The unit will stay in this position until you lift the handle and cover to
return it to the closed position.
• Use the Grill Toaster as an open grill to cook burgers, steak, poultry (we do
not recommend cooking bone-in chicken, since it does not cook evenly on
an open grill), fish and vegetables.
• Cooking on the open grill is the most versatile method of using the Grill
Toaster. In the open position, you have double the surface area for grill.
• You have the option of cooking different types of foods on separates with-
out combining their flavors, or cooking large amounts of the same type of
food. The open position also accommodates different cuts of meat with
varying thicknesses, allowing you to cook each piece to you liking.
CLEANING AND CARE
• Always unplug the Grill Toaster and allow it to cool before cleaning. The
unit is easier to clean when slightly warm. There is no need to disassem-
ble Grill Toaster for cleaning. Never immerse the Grill Toaster in water or
place in dishwasher.
• Wipe cooking plates with a soft to remove food residue. For baked on food
residue squeeze some warm water mixed with detergent over the food
residue then clean with a non abrasive plastic scouring pad or place wet
kitchen paper over the grill to moisten the food residue.
• Do not use anything abrasive that can scratch or damage the non-stick
coating.
• Do not use metal utensils to remove your foods, they can damage the
non-stick surface.
• Wipe the outside of the grill toaster with a damp cloth only. Do not clean
the outside with any abrasive scouring pad or steel wool, as this will dam-
age the finish. Do not immerse in water or any other liquid.
• Do not place in the dishwasher.
• Remove and empty the drip tray after each use and wash the tray in warm,
soapy water. Avoid the use of scouring pads or harsh detergents as they
may damage the surface. Rinse and dry thoroughly with a clean, soft cloth
and replace.
