When using your grill/press for the
first time you may notice a fine
smoke haze being emitted from
the unit. This is normal. It is due to
the initial heating of internal com-
ponents.
Using your Contact Grill and
Sandwich Press
0 Plug the power cable into a power
outlet.
1
Ensure that the cable is kept well
away from the cooking plates
when in use.
0 Detach the drip tray from the
underside of the appliance. Place it
under the outlet of the sloping bot-
tom plate to allow the fats and
juices to drain into the drip tray.
0 Select your desired temperature
setting to suit the type of food you
wish to cook. Turn the temperature
dial to „Contact Grill“ or „Sand-
wich Press“.
Pre-heat until the green Ready
Light (Fig. 1/G) illuminates. While
heating up, the red Warm Up Light
(Fig. 1/F) is lit.
3
The Warm Up and Ready Lights
are thermostatically controlled and
will cycle on and off during cooking
to ensure that the correct tempera-
ture is maintained.
3
The Contact Grill and Sandwich
Press can be used to grill foods
with the top plate opened or
closed.
0 After you have completed grilling
or toasting, unplug the appliance
from the power outlet. Let cool it
down before cleaning.
Grilling Meats and Vegeta-
bles
0 Turn the temperature dial to „Con-
tact Grill“ and pre-heat until the
green Ready Light (Fig. 1/G) will
illuminate.
0 Always spray the grill plates with
cooking spray before placing
meat, seafood or vegetables onto
the grill plate.
0 Gently lower the lid (if desired)
using the handle (Fig. 1/E).
3
The floating hinge system will
adjust automatically ensuring the
top cooking plate lies evenly on
your food for perfect grilling every
time.
0 If desired halfway through cooking
turn your food over to achieve
attractive grill marks on both the
top and bottom of your food.
0 When cooking some foods you
may want to re-spray the top grill
plate to prevent food from sticking.
3
The cooking plates are coated in a
durable high grade non-stick coat-
ing. Some foods that are mari-
nated or coated may cause the
food to stick to the grill plates.
0 To free the food use a heat-resi-
stant plastic spatula or wooden
spoon.
1
Never use sharp metal objects as
this will damage the non-stick sur-
face.
Toasting Sandwiches
0 Turn the temperature dial to
„Sandwich Press“ and pre-heat
until the green Ready Light (Fig. 1/
G) will illuminate.
0 Always butter the outside of the
bread. The sandwich filling will be
placed between the unbuttered
sides of the bread.
0 Place the buttered side of the
bread onto the cooking plate, then
spoon the recommended quantity
of filling onto the bread.
0 Place the top slice of bread on top
of the filling with the buttered side
facing upwards.
