Operating the Grill
Do not plug in the appliance until it is time to heat the unit and start the cooking
process. Do not leave it plugged in if it is not in use! Always attach the tempera-
ture probe to the grill before plugging it into the wall!
1.
Position the grill on a dry, level, heat-resistant surface. Always leave a gap of ap-
proximately 20 cm. around the exterior of the appliance. Never use the grill near
curtains, walls, under cupboards or other flammable materials. Your counter-top
finish or surface may be affected by heat. Do not place the grill on any surface
where heat may cause a problem.
Make sure the removable drip tray (4) is inserted into the base (5) properly (see
2.
the previous page). DO NOT OPERATE THE GRILL WITHOUT THE DRIP TRAY IN
PLACE. Hot grease will spill onto the surface below, potentially causing damage or
injury.
Fill the drip tray with water to the maximum level indicated on the tray. This
3.
makes cleaning much easier and helps the grill operate without smoke.
Position the grill plate (2) onto the base. The control section can be placed on
4.
either side. The grill plate should fit securely into the grooves of the base.
Make sure the temperature control probe (3) is unplugged and set to OFF.
5.
Insert it into the side of the grill, as seen on the previous page.
6.
Plug the grill into the wall outlet and rotate the dial to the desired temperature set-
ting (see the chart on the next page). Allow the grill to preheat for a few minutes.
CAUTION: THE GRILL AND THE OUTSIDE OF THE MACHINE WILL GET HOT
DURING COOKING AND PREHEATING.
7.
Place the food on the grill. Be careful not to overload it. Don't stack food.
8.
Let the food cook. Follow the suggested cooking times for the recipe used.
9.
Remove the food with a heat-proof plastic spatula or tongs. Do not use sharp
objects or utensils. Do not cut food while it is on the grill surface. This is unsafe
and bad for your grill.
Be careful when removing cooked food from the grill. It will be hot!
10. When you are finished using the appliance, be sure to turn the temperature dial to
the OFF position. Then, unplug the appliance from the wall! Do not touch the grill
surface, as it will still be hot. Allow it to cool before touching again.
