5.3 Smart Programs and Manual Mode

The grill offers 6 preset programs for common foods: Hamburger, Chicken, Steak, Sausage, Fish, and Panini. These programs automatically adjust cooking time and temperature.

5.4 Temperature Probe

Insert the integrated temperature probe into the thickest part of the meat to monitor its internal temperature in real-time. This ensures precise cooking results, preventing under or overcooking.

The grill can open 180 degrees to provide a larger, flat cooking surface. In this mode, both cooking zones can be controlled independently, allowing you to cook different foods simultaneously at different temperatures.
