NOTE: When the grill plates are heated for the rst time, they may emit slight smoke or
odor. This is normal and should disappear in a few minutes. This will not affect the safety of
the appliance.
8. Condition grill plates. Use a brush or paper towel to lightly coat the grill surfaces with solid
vegetable shortening or vegetable oil. Wipe dry and keep closed until ready to use.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. WARNING: TO AVOID POSSIBLE FIRE HAZARD AND DAMAGE TO THE UNIT, THE 6 BURGER
GRILL MUST BE USED WITH BOTH UPPER/LOWER GRILL PLATES INSTALLED AT ALL TIMES.
CAUTION: To avoid personal injury or damage to property, make sure the removable drip
tray is fully inserted into the front of the unit.
1. Preheat the 6 Burger Grill. Use the handle to close the Burger Grill. Plug the unit into a
120VAC electrical outlet.The red POWER light will illuminate and remain lighted during use.
2. After approximately 5 to 7 minutes, the green READY light will illuminate, indicating the
preheat temperature unit has been reached and the 6 Burger Grill is ready for use.
3. Oil grill plates before use…or not! Wearing a protective oven mitt, use a heat-proof brush
or paper towel dipped in vegetable oil to lightly coat the upper and lower grill plates to
encourage even browning. For health-conscious cooks, the non-stick coating of the grill
plates assures crisp and delicious toasting without the use of oil or butter.
IMPORTANT: Do not use non-stick sprays as they can cause build-up on the grill plates.
Use vegetable or olive oil instead.
4. Center food on the lower grill plate; then lower the lid. The green READY light will cycle on
and off as the temperature is maintained.
5. Cook foods according to recipe instructions or consult the General Cooking Chart for
reference. Recipes will vary in cook time and brownness. Note the perfect grill/cooking times
for each food for future reference. WARNING! ALWAYS UNPLUG UNIT WHEN COOKING IS
FINISHED. Otherwise, the 6 Burger Grill will continue to heat until unit is unplugged.

6 BURGER GRILL
(CLOSED POSITION)
1. Use cuts of meat, vegetables, sh, poultry
of equal thickness; all food should be thick
enough to touch the upper and lower grill
plates when the 6 Burger Grill is closed.
2. Floating Hinge Set-Up: Open the lid to
90º. Center food on the lower plate. Grasp
the handle to lift the upper grill plate and
extend the hinge (See Figure 3). Lower the
upper grill plate so that it lies evenly on the
top of the food.
3. Press the handle down gently over the food
to prevent juices from releasing.
IMPORTANT! Foods cooked in the
BurgerGrill will take roughly half the
cooking time as an open grill, since they
are being cooked top and bottom i
n a conned cooking area.
