Instructions for Use

The Griddle & Grill is a really versatile piece of kitchen equipment. It can be used in

different ways depending on the food you are cooking.

It is supplied with two sets of plates, the ribbed grill plates are ideal for steaks, kebabs and

Paninis, the ﬂat griddle plates are great for pancakes, eggs and French toast.

You can use both grill plates together, both griddle plates together or a combination of

one grill plate and one griddle plate.

To ﬁt the plates:

1. Ensure the product is switched off and disconnected from the electric supply.

2. Select the plates you intend to use for cooking.

3. Position the Griddle & Grill so that the controls are facing towards you. Lift the handle

to open the grill.

4. Align the two plate locating legs at the back of the plate (See Fig. 1) with the brackets

on the bottom of the housing case (See Fig. 2) Tilt the plate and slide it underneath

the bracket.

5. Push the plate into the grill housing until it clicks and locks into place.

6. Repeat with the second plate.

To remove the plates:

Selecting the cooking position

Once you have ﬁtted the cooking plates you intend to use, you need to select the cooking

position.

Fully open position

The Griddle & Grill can be used in the fully open position to

create a double cooking surface.

To adjust the Griddle & Grill to the fully open position, lift the handle using one hand, then

use the other hand to push the hinge release lever located on the right side of the product

upwards. As you do this, push the handle back, until it is resting on the work surface and

the upper and lower plates are level.

Half Open Position

The Griddle & Grill can be used in the half open position. To

adjust the appliance to this position, simply lift the handle

until it comes into the fully upright position and clicks into

place. The unit will stay in this position until you close the

cover or continue to open it to the fully open position, using

the hinge release lever.

Closed Position

The Griddle & Grill can be used in the closed position as a

contact grill/panini press and is ideal for quick cooking as the

heat comes from both sides of the plates. The ﬂoating hinge

design means that the space between the top and bottom

plate adjusts to the thickness of your food. When cooking

more than one item at a time, try to ensure the thickness of

the food is consistent to ensure even cooking for each piece

of food.

To achieve this position simply place food on the bottom plate, place your left hand on

the handle, use your right hand to tap the top of the grill using light pressure until the lid

is level with the base unit and is resting on your food. You can apply light pressure using

the handle to press whilst cooking to lock in ﬂavour.
