Notice: When your Grill Toaster is heated for the first time, it may emit slight smoke or odor. This is normal with many heating appliances. This does not affect the safety of your appliance.

HOW TO USE

• Connect the appliance to an appropriate socket.
• The control lights illuminate and the toasting surfaces heat up.
• The appliance must be heated up before grilling. In the meantime, prepare your food.
• As soon as the appliance has heated up, the control light goes out.
• You can now begin grilling.
• Open the appliance cover completely.
• Place the food on the cooking plate and close the cover.
• Caution: If the foods have too much filling on, it will not be possible to close the appliance. Take some of the filling off. Never use force to close the appliance.
• During toasting, the temperature regulating thermostat switches off and on again. The control light also switches off and on again.
• After completion of the grilling process, open the top cover and remove the foods with the help of a flat wooden or plastic spatula. Never use sharp or metal objects like knives, metal spatulas, etc., as this will damage the Teflon coating.
• If you wish to grill more food, close the appliance again and wait until the toasting surfaces have reheated sufficiently.
• When the control light illuminates again, you can repeat the toasting process as described above.
• After cooking, disconnect the mains plug and let it cool down with the appliance open.

Caution: The grilling surfaces as well as the sides and top of the appliance get very hot. Avoid any contact. Danger of burning! Only hold by the handle. The appliance must always be positioned horizontally during use.

COOKING

To Use as a Contact Grill

• Prepare the burgers, boneless pieces of meat, and thin cuts of meat or other foods as directed and place it onto the bottom cooking plate.
• Close the top cooking plate, which has a floating hinge designed to evenly press down on the food. The top plate must be fully lowered to achieve grill marks on the selected foods.
• When the foods are cooked, use the handle to open the lid. Remove the food with the help of a plastic spatula. Never use metal tongs or a knife, as these can cause damage to the non-stick coating of the cook plates.
• Use the Grill Toaster as a contact grill to cook burgers, boneless pieces of meat, and thin cuts of meat and vegetables.
• Use the Grill-Toaster as a contact grill when you want to cook something in a short amount of time or when you are looking for a healthy method of grilling. When cooking on the contact grill, food will cook quickly because you are grilling both sides of the food at the same time. The ribs on the grill plates combined with the grease spout at the corner of the plate allow the grease to drip from the meat and drain off the plates.

To Use as Press grill

• Prepare the sandwiches as directed and place them onto the bottom cooking plate. Always place sandwiches towards the rear of the bottom cooking plate.
• Close the top cooking plate, which has a floating hinge designed to evenly press down on the sandwich. The top plate must be fully lowered to cook sandwiches.
• Cook for about 3 to 6 minutes or until golden brown, adjusting the time to suit your own individual taste.
• When the sandwich is cooked, use the handle to open the lid. Remove the sandwich with the help of a plastic spatula. Never use metal tongs or a knife, as these can cause damage to the non-stick coating of the cook plates.
• Use the Grill Toaster as a Press grill to grill sandwiches, breads, and quesadillas.
• The Grill Toaster was designed with a unique handle and hinge that allows the cover to adjust to the thickness of the food. You can easily grill anything from a thinly-sliced potato to a thick sirloin steak with even results.
• When cooking more than one food item in the contact grill, it is important that the thickness of food items is consistent so the cover will close evenly on the food.

CLEANING

• Firstly, disconnect the mains plug!
• Only clean when the appliance has completely cooled down.
• Clean the housing surface and the toasting surfaces of the sandwich toaster with a soft, damp cloth.
• It is easiest to remove toast or food crumbs with a very soft brush.
• Never use abrasive cleaning agents or sharp objects (e.g., scrubbing brush or knife) for cleaning.
• Caution: Do not immerse the appliance in water or other liquids. There is danger to life due to electric shock.
• After usage, please lock the storage lock in order for easy storing.
