Be sure to always wash the cooking plates and drip tray after each use
to remove any residue that may have accumulated.
Do not use sharp objects or attempt to cut food on top of the grill
plates.
Always preheat your Tri-Grill until the READY text appears in the
display and a short beep sounds before placing your food on the
plates. Have all ingredients in place before cooking starts.
Do not use metal utensils, as this may damage the nonstick surface of
the grill plates.
If additional cooking is desired, lower the UPPER PLATE HOUSING to
preserve the heat while you prepare the additional ingredients.
Let food cool slightly before eating. Cheese especially, becomes very
hot. Soft or melted fillings will firm slightly.
For cheeseburgers, simply grill the hamburgers in the CONTACT or
DUAL position. Once complete, open the grill and add cheese. Then
select the FIXED position to melt the cheese.
