USING YOUR GRILL
• Sit your grill on a stable, level, heat-resistant surface.
• Slide the drip tray between the two runners underneath the front of your grill. Slide the tray
all the way in. The drip tray will collect any fat or juices that run o the plates
during cooking.
1. Put the plug into the power socket. The power light will come on.
2. The thermostat light will come on, then cycle on and o as the thermostat maintains the
temperature.
3. Wait till the light goes out before cooking.
4. Lay the food on the bottom grill plate with a spatula or tongs, not ngers.
5. Don’t use anything metal or sharp, you’ll damage the non-stick surfaces.
6. Close the grill.
7. Wait till the food has cooked.
• Check it’s cooked. If you’re in doubt, cook it a bit more.
• Remove the cooked food with wooden or plastic tools.
• The hinge is articulated to cope with thick or oddly shaped foods.
• The grill plates should be roughly parallel, to avoid uneven cooking.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
General cleaning
1. Wipe the outside surfaces of the appliance with a clean damp cloth.
2. Wash the drip tray in warm soapy water or in the top rack of the dishwasher.
Grill plates
• Don’t use harsh or abrasive cleaners, solvents, scourers, wire wool, or soap pads.
• Where the top and bottom plates make contact, the non-stick surfaces may show signs of
wear. This is purely cosmetic, and will not aect the operation of the grill.
There are two ways you can clean the grill plates:
While the plates are still hot
• Wear appropriate protection such as a oven gloves or similar, and use extreme care while
wiping the hot plates (note that oven gloves are not shown in gure B for clarity).
1. Unplug your grill.
2. Using a piece of folded kitchen paper or damp cloth, wipe the plates in one continuous
motion from the back to the front. Always support the top plate when wiping either the
top or the bottom plate (Fig. B) to avoid the unit tipping over.
When the plates are cold
1. Unplug your grill and let it cool completely.
2. Wipe the plates with a damp cloth or sponge. Use a paper towel with a dab of cooking oil
to remove stubborn stains.
STORING
The unit may be stood vertically (on the hinged side) for storage.
