Preparing the cooking surface - make sure the cooking surface is clean, turn the unit on and apply a
generous amount of oil to the plates. Using the thermostat control, set the Grill to 110˚C, when the Grill
has reached temperature, switch off and carefully wipe any excess oil from the plates.
Operation
The Contact Grill should be turned on at least 5 minutes before use
To get efficient use out of this unit while in intermittent use, it is recommended that the Grill plates remain
closed and the thermostat turned down, when not cooking. This will assist in reducing power consumption
and also allow for quicker heat response when needed.
Buffalo recommends that the cooking surface is lightly greased, before each use.
A temperature setting of between 200°Cand 220°C will be sufficient for general cooking. This may vary for
particular food types, individual needs, or experience.
Simply place the food products on the bottom grilling surface and lower the top plate down, and cook to
your needs.
Use the Allen key supplied to adjust the tension of the top plate. Turn clockwise to tighten, anti-clockwise
to loosen.
Cleaning, Care & Maintenance
Before starting to clean the Grill, disconnect from the electricity supply by removing the plug from the socket.
Clean the cooking surface regularly, we recommend it is cleaned after every use session.
When the cooking surfaces are still warm, wash with warm soapy water and then rinse thoroughly with
clean water. This will help to stop food sticking to the plates.
Remove the fat drip tray and wash in warm soapy water.
Other surfaces can be wiped over with a damp cloth to remove all food residues.
Do not immerse the Contact Grill in water or use water sprays to clean it.
If grease is permitted to accumulate, it will begin to carbonise into a hard substance that is extremely
difficult to remove. To prevent this, follow the cleaning steps below:
1) Always turn OFF the appliance and disconnect from the power supply before cleaning
2) Allow the appliance to cool before cleaning, but for best results clean the plates when they are still
slightly warm
3) Use warm, soapy water and a damp cloth to clean the exterior of the appliance
4) Take care when using scrapers to remove cooking residues as they can damage the cooking surface
5) Dry thoroughly after cleaning
6) A BUFFALO dealer or qualified technician should carry out repairs if required
