Setup and First Use

1. Unpacking: Carefully remove the grill and all accessories from the packaging. Retain packaging for future storage or transport.
2. Initial Cleaning: Before first use, wipe the exterior of the grill with a damp cloth. Remove the grilling plates and the fat drip tray, and wash them with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely. Reinsert the clean plates and drip tray.
3. Placement: Place the grill on a stable, heat-resistant, and level surface, away from walls and flammable materials. Ensure adequate ventilation around the appliance.
4. Power Connection: Ensure the power cord is fully extended and plug the grill into a grounded electrical outlet.
5. First Operation (Burn-off): For the first use, preheat the grill in manual mode with the lid closed until it beeps. This helps to burn off any manufacturing residues. A slight odor or smoke may occur, which is normal. Ensure the area is well-ventilated.

Using Manual Program

For custom grilling, select the manual program (usually indicated by an 'M' icon). In this mode, you control the cooking time and temperature visually. The grill will preheat, and you can place your food once the 'START TO COOK' indicator is active. Monitor your food and remove it when done to your preference.

Care and Maintenance

1. Always Unplug: Before cleaning, always unplug the grill from the power outlet and allow it to cool completely.
2. Cleaning Grilling Plates: The grilling plates are removable for easy cleaning. Press the release buttons (if present) and carefully detach the plates. Wash them by hand with warm, soapy water and a non-abrasive sponge. For stubborn residue, soak the plates in warm water before cleaning. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely before reattaching.
3. Cleaning Fat Drip Tray: Remove the fat drip tray from the back of the grill. Empty any collected fat and wash the tray with warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly before reinserting.
4. Cleaning Exterior: Wipe the exterior surfaces of the grill with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can damage the finish. Never immerse the main unit in water or any other liquid.
5. Storage: Ensure the grill is clean and dry before storing. Store it in a cool, dry place.
