Operating Instructions
Preheating
- Close the grill and plug it into the power outlet. The indicator light will illuminate, signaling that the grill is heating up.
- Allow the grill to preheat for approximately 3-5 minutes. The indicator light will turn off or cycle on and off once the desired temperature is reached, indicating it is ready for use.
Grilling Food
- Once preheated, carefully open the grill using the handle.
- Place your food (e.g., meat, panini, vegetables) onto the lower grill plate. Do not overload the grill.
- Gently close the upper grill plate over the food. The floating hinge allows the upper plate to adjust to the thickness of the food.
- Grill for the recommended time, or until the food is cooked to your preference. Cooking times will vary depending on the type and thickness of the food.
- Periodically check the food to prevent overcooking.
- When grilling is complete, carefully open the grill and remove the food using a heat-resistant plastic or wooden utensil. Avoid using metal utensils that could damage the non-stick coating.
- Unplug the grill from the power outlet after use.
Cleaning and Maintenance
Regular cleaning ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your grill.
- Before Cleaning: Always unplug the grill from the power outlet and allow it to cool down completely before cleaning.
- Cleaning Grill Plates: The grill features non-stick coated plates. Wipe the plates with a damp cloth or sponge. For stubborn food residues, you may use a small amount of mild dish soap. Do not use abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or metal brushes, as these can damage the non-stick coating.
- Exterior Cleaning: Wipe the exterior of the grill with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
- Drip Tray: If your model includes a drip tray, remove and empty it after each use. Wash it with warm, soapy water and dry thoroughly.
