Operating Instructions
Preheating
- Ensure the grill is properly assembled and plugged in.
- Turn the temperature control dial to your desired setting. The indicator light will illuminate, signaling that the grill is heating.

Grilling

Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Grill does not heat up. | Not plugged in; temperature control not connected properly; power outlet malfunction. | Ensure power cord is securely plugged into a working outlet. Check if the temperature control unit is firmly attached. Test the outlet with another appliance. |
