a safe place for future reference.
Remove all packing materials including in between the plates inside
the grill and dispose of responsibly.

Instructions for use
This appliance is intended for the preparation of food only. Any other
use may result in damage to the product or injury. This product is not
intended for commercial use. It is designed for household use only.
Grilling (Closed Position)
This method is particularly suitable for fast, high temperature grilling on
both sides, for example steak, burgers, toasted sandwiches or paninis.
1. Place the appliance on a level, heat-resistant solid non-slip surface.
2. Fit the oil collection container (8) into place.
3. Using the handle (1) lift the upper grill plate (2) completely and
lightly coat both the upper and lower grill plates (2 & 7) then put the
upper grill plate down again.
4. Connect the plug to a suitable socket outlet.
5. Set the thermostat control (6) to the desired level. The bottom
grilling plate (7) will begin to heat up, turn on the upper grilling plate
(2) by pressing the grilling plate switch (5) to position II. The
indicator light in the switch will illuminate and both grilling plates will
heat up. During heating to the selected temperature both indicator
lights (4 & 5) will illuminate. The indicator lights will turn off when the
selected temperature has been reached.
6. When the indicator lights go out, lift the upper grill plate using the
handle to the vertical position. It is also recommended to use oven
gloves or similar to avoid burns due to accidental contact with hot
surfaces.
7. Place the food to be grilled onto the bottom grilling plate.
8. Close the upper grilling plate. Regulate the cooking temperature if
needed using the thermostat control.

your personal taste.

upper and lower grilling plates.
11. To remove cooked food, open the upper grilling plate completely.
The grilling plates have a non-stick coating and metal utensils
should not be used to avoid scratching the surface. Silicon or
wooden utensils are recommended for removing food from the grill.
Grilling (Open Position)
Open grilling is ideal for shish kebabs, satays, vegetables which need
to be roasted more slowly and evenly.

2. Fit the oil collection container (8) into place.
3. Lightly cover the lower grill plate with a thin film of oil.
4. Connect the plug to a suitable socket outlet.
5. Set the thermostat control (6) to the desired level. The bottom
grilling plate (7) will begin to heat up, ensure the grilling plate switch
(5) is set to the I position and the upper grilling plate is switched off.
