4. Operating Instructions

1. First Use (Burn-off): Before cooking food for the first time, plug the appliance into a suitable power outlet. Turn the thermostat to the maximum setting and allow the grill to heat for approximately 10-15 minutes. This will burn off any manufacturing residues. A slight odor or smoke may be present; this is normal. Ensure good ventilation. Unplug and allow to cool, then wipe the surface clean.
2. Pre-heating: Plug the appliance into a 220-240V~ 50/60Hz power outlet. Turn the thermostat control to your desired temperature setting. The indicator light will illuminate, signaling that the grill is heating. Allow 5-10 minutes for the grill to reach the set temperature. The indicator light may cycle on and off during cooking to maintain the temperature.
3. Cooking: Once pre-heated, place your food directly onto the non-stick cooking surface. The ribbed section is ideal for grilling meats, fish, and vegetables, creating sear marks. The flat teppan yaki section is perfect for stir-fries, eggs, pancakes, or delicate items.
4. Temperature Control: Adjust the thermostat knob to increase or decrease the cooking temperature as needed for different foods.
5. After Cooking: Once cooking is complete, turn the thermostat control to the 'OFF' position and unplug the appliance from the power outlet. Allow the grill to cool down completely before cleaning.

5. Maintenance and Cleaning

Proper cleaning and maintenance will ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your TECHWOOD Grill & Teppan Yaki.

1. Unplug and Cool: Always ensure the appliance is unplugged and has cooled down completely before attempting to clean it.
2. Remove Drip Tray: Carefully slide out the grease drip tray and empty its contents. Wash the drip tray with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and dry.
3. Clean Cooking Surface: Wipe the non-stick cooking surface with a soft, damp cloth or sponge. For stubborn food residues, use a small amount of mild dish soap. Do not use abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or metal utensils, as these can damage the non-stick coating.
4. Clean Exterior: Wipe the exterior of the appliance with a damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals.
5. Storage: Ensure all parts are clean and dry before storing the appliance. Store in a cool, dry place.

6. Troubleshooting

• Appliance does not heat up:
  • Check if the power cord is securely plugged into a working outlet.
  • Ensure the thermostat control is correctly inserted into the appliance and turned to an 'ON' position.
  • Verify that the power outlet is functional by testing it with another appliance.
• Uneven heating:
  • Ensure the grill is placed on a flat, level surface.
  • Allow sufficient pre-heating time for the entire surface to reach temperature.
• Smoke or odor during first use:
  • This is normal for the first use as manufacturing residues burn off. Ensure good ventilation. If it persists after initial burn-off, discontinue use and contact support.
