Instructions for Use

A Selecting Griddle & Grill Position

The appliance can be positioned in 3 ways:

Closed Position

ßUpper plate/cover rests at on lower plate/base. This is the start and heating position when using the

appliance as a contact grill or panini press function.

Open Position

ßUpper plate/cover is open and in the upright position. Open the cover to this position to add or remove

food from the appliance when using the contact grill or panini press function.

ßTo adjust the appliance to this position, simply lift the handle until it comes into a fully upright position.

The unit will stay in this position until you close the cover or continue to open it to the Flat Position.

Flat Position

ßUpper plate/cover is level with the lower plate/base. The handle rests on the work surface and the upper

and lower plates are level to create one large cooking surface. The appliance is in this position when it is

used as an open grill or griddle.

ßTo adjust the appliance to this position, simply lift the handle to the open position.With your left hand on

the handle, use your right hand to push up the Hinge Lock with light pressure. Pulling the handle slightly

downwards will assist in opening the locking hinge. Continue opening the cover, ensuring the upper plate

opens at to prevent damage to the appliance.The unit will stay in this position until you lift the cover off

the table and return it to the closed position.

ßN.B: We recommend this is carried out when the product is not switched on as guidance may be

required.

B Fitting And Removing The Plates

To t the plates:

ßPlace the appliance in the at position with the controls directly in front of you (refer to section A

“Selecting Griddle & Grill Position’’)

ßEach plate is embossed with ‘Lower’ or ‘Upper’. Select the ‘Lower’ plate that you intend to cook with

(grill or griddle). Hold it at with the grease spout pointing towards you and the ‘Lower’ sign facing up.

ßAlign the two cut outs at the back of the plate with the brackets on the bottom of the housing base.

Tilt the back of the plate and slide it underneath the brackets. Push down the front end of the plate

until it locks into place.

ßSelect the matching plate (grill or griddle) and with the ‘Upper’ embossed sign facing up and the grease

spout pointing away from you.Align the plate with the brackets and push down the front to the lock

into position.

To remove the plates:

ßAdjust the appliance to the at position (refer to section A, Selecting Grill & Griddle Position).

ßLocate the plate release buttons on the right side of the units’ upper and lower housing. Press the ‘Upper’

release button rmly and the Upper plate will pop up slightly from the base. Lift the plate up and slide

out from under the brackets in the centre.

ßPress the button on the Lower housing and repeat the above method to remove the Lower plate.

ßN.B: Always allow the appliance to cool for at least 30 minutes before removing the plates.

C Positioning The Drip Cups

When using the appliance as a contact grill or panini press, only one drip cup is needed. Place the cup directly

below the grease spout while cooking. Grease from the food will run off the plates through the grease spout

and into the drip cups.

When using the appliance as an Open Grill or Griddle, both drip cups should be used. Place the cups at either

end of the unit directly below the grease spouts.

N.B. Grease should be safely disposed of after cooking. The drip cups can be cleaned in the dishwasher.
