Setup

1. Unboxing and Initial Assembly

Carefully remove all packaging materials. Ensure all parts are accounted for. The grill comes mostly pre-assembled, but some minor assembly is required, such as attaching the handle to the glass lid.

2. Seasoning the Grill Plate

Before first use, it is recommended to season the non-stick grill plate. Apply a few tablespoons of cooking oil (e.g., olive or avocado oil) to a paper towel and rub it evenly over the entire grill surface. Heat the grill to a medium temperature for a few minutes to burn off any excess oil and season the surface.

3. Adding Water to the Drip Tray

Pull out the removable drip tray located at the front of the grill. Fill it with the appropriate amount of water as indicated by the manual (typically to the fill line). This water helps to cool down drippings and minimize smoke during grilling.

Ensure the drip tray is filled with water before starting the grill to effectively reduce smoke.

Operating Instructions

1. Powering On and Temperature Control

Plug the power cord into a suitable electrical outlet. Press the 'Power' button on the LED smart display to turn on the grill. Use the '+' and '-' buttons to adjust the desired cooking temperature, ranging from 212°F to 446°F.

The LED display allows for precise temperature adjustments and fan control.

2. Activating the Turbo Smoke Extractor

Press the 'Fan' button on the control panel to activate the Turbo Smoke Extractor. This feature is crucial for minimizing smoke and odors, ensuring a pleasant indoor grilling experience.

3. Grilling Your Food

Once the grill reaches the desired temperature, carefully place your food onto the grill plate. The tempered glass lid can be used to lock in heat and reduce cooking time. The perforated grill plate allows excess oil to drain into the drip tray, leaving grill marks on your food.

The grill is capable of cooking various foods, including burgers, with minimal smoke.
