What to do if my TEFAL Grill doesn't start cooking after I put the food in?

  Diane WrightAug 8, 2025
  There are several reasons why your TEFAL Grill might not start cooking: * The food is thicker than 4 cm. Ensure food is no more than 4cm thick. * The food is thinner than 4 mm. You must confirm the start of the cooking by pressing the OK button. * You didn't wait for preheating. Wait for the audible beep and the cooking level indicator to flash purple before adding food.

  Shari MartinezAug 12, 2025
  Your TEFAL Grill may switch to manual mode if you start a cooking cycle without preheating. You can either: * Allow it to cook, but you must monitor the cooking (white LED = manual mode). * Stop the appliance, remove the food, close the appliance properly, reprogram it, and wait until preheating is complete. Alternatively, this could indicate an appliance failure. In that case, contact your local TEFAL Customer Service.

  If your TEFAL Grill stops during pre-heating or cooking, it might be because the appliance has been kept open for too long. Disconnect the appliance from the mains, leave for 2-3 minutes, and then restart the process. Next time, make sure you open and close it briefly for best cooking results. If the problem continues, no answer.

  If the indicator is flashing after placing food on the cooking plates of your TEFAL Grill, it might not be sensing the food because the meat thickness is too thin. You must confirm the start of the cooking by pressing the button.

  If the indicator on your TEFAL Grill stays purple after you put the food in, it could be because: * You have not completely opened the grill when putting on the food. Completely open the grill then close it. * It is not sensing the food because the meat thickness is too thin (minimum thickness = 4mm). Confirm the start of the cooking by pressing the button.

  If your TEFAL Grill turns itself off during cooking in manual mode, it's likely because the cooking time has exceeded 30 minutes. Press the on/off button and re-start the manual mode.
