TABLE OF CONTENTS
Meet Todd English
Todd English began his cooking career
at the young age of 15 when he rst
entered the doors of a professional
kitchen. At 20, he attended the Culinary
Institute of America and graduated in
1982 with honors. He continued to hone
his craft with Jean Jacques Rachou at
New York’s La Cote Basque and then
relocated to Italy where he apprenticed
at the well-established Dal Pescatore
in Canneto sull’Oglio and Paracucchi in
Locanda dell’Angelo.
It was in Italy that Todd, drawing from
his Italian heritage, developed his
unique style and approach to cooking.
English returned to the United States at
25 and was asked to be the Executive
Chef of the award-winning Northern Ital-
ian restaurant Michela’s in Cambridge,
Massachusetts. He served there as an
executive chef for three years, garnering
high praise from both the press and the
public.
In the spring of 1991, English caught
the culinary world’s eye when the
James Beard Foundation named him
their National Rising Star Chef. English
followed through on that promise, as the
James Beard Foundation subsequently
named him Best Chef in the Northeast
in 1994. Nation’s Restaurant News
named English one of their Top 50 Tas-
temakers in 1999. In 2001, English was
awarded Bon Appetit’s Restaurateur of
the Year award and was named one of
People Magazine’s 50 Most Beautiful
People. Todd also has been named to
the James Beard Foundation’s Who’s
Who in Food and Beverage in America.

A short power-supply cord (or detachable power-supply cord) is provided to reduce
the risk of becoming entangled in, or tripping over, a longer cord. Longer detachable
power-supply cords or extension cords are available and may be used if care is
exercised in their use. If a longer detachable power-supply cord or extension cord is
used:
1. The marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the
electrical rating of the appliance.
2. The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over any countertop or
tabletop where it could be pulled on or tripped over unintentionally.
3. The Pro-Smart Grill should be operated on a separate electrical outlet from other
operating appliances due to wattage limitations.
4. This appliance is of the 3-pin grounded type, so the cord set or extension cord
should also be a grounding type 3-wire cord.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS: Read and understand the entire manual before using
the Pro-Smart Grill.

Preheat/Warm
Preheating is vital to many types of
cooking, such as baking, as it creates the
right atmosphere for the ingredients to
cook. This unit preheats automatically with
certain functions or Presets, displaying
“Preheat” on the LED screen. It brings the
unit to the set cooking temperature, beeps
twice, and starts a 10-second countdown
so you can insert your food and start the
cooking cycle. If no food is inserted, after
the countdown the unit will beep once and
begin to cook. With NuWave, however,
