Make sure that the meat grill has been unplugged from the mains socket before
cleaning it.

Wipe the cooking plates and the unit ( Cleaning and maintenance).

Lightly grease the cooking plates with cooking oil and follow the instructions provided in
the section below to heat the unit for a few minutes (without food) until the initial smoke
clears.

the first time and will disappear after a few minutes.
Use
Important:
•
We recommend placing a non-slip heat resistant mat under the unit to protect
your surface from heat.
•
Never use metal or sharp utensils on the unit as these could damage the non-
stick coating. Use wooden or heat-resistant spatulas/tongs to handle food.
•
Do not cut food on the cooking plate to avoid scratching the non-stick coating.
•
Do not rest utensils on the cooking plates.
•
Never cook frozen food on the meat grill, as this could damage the unit. Make
sure that the food has completely defrosted before cooking it.
1.
Open the storage lock on the right-hand side of the meat grill, then lift the handle to open
the lid (as shown in Fig.
2.
Lightly grease the cooking plates with cooking oil and close the lid.
3.
To turn on the meat grill, firmly insert the power cable's plug into a suitable mains socket.
• The preheating indicator will turn on when the meat grill heats up and go off when
the unit is ready for use. The preheating process takes about 3 minutes.
4.
When the preheating indicator goes off, open the lid and place the food on the lower
cooking plate. Gently lower the lid to simultaneously grill the food on both sides. This
meat grill is perfect for toasting bread or paninis and searing thin slices of lean (boneless)
meats or vegetables.

over the cooking plates.
