Functions
BEFORE FIRST USE
Remove and safely discard any packaging
material or promotional labels before using
your panini grill for the first time.
Check that the cooking plates are clean and
free of dust. If necessary, wipe over with a soft
damp cloth. Dry thoroughly.
NOTE
When the grill is turned on and heating for the
first time, it may emit a fine smoke haze. This is
due to the protective substances on the heating
elements. It is safe and not detrimental to the
performance of the grill.
The panini grill can be used as a grill for
searing meats and vegetables or as a panini
press for toasting breads and focaccia.
It also features an adjustable height control
feature which allows you to fix the top
plate to a range of positions above the
bottom plate.
TO USE AS A GRILL
1. Insert the power plug into a 110/120V
power outlet then press the ON/OFF switch
to ON.
2. Turn the variable temperature control to
SEAR for fast heat up. Allow the grill to
pre-heat with the top cooking plate in the
closed position until the green READY
light illuminates.
NOTE
The green READY light will cycle on and off
during the cooking process indicating that the
correct temperature is being maintained.

3. During this time, prepare the foods to be
cooked. Refer to Grilling Guide
(page 9) or Grilling Recipes (page 12).
When the grill has preheated, place
the foods to be cooked onto the bottom
cooking plate. Always place foods towards
the rear of the bottom cooking plate.
4. Close the top cooking plate. The top
cooking plate has a floating hinge that
is designed to evenly press down on
food. The top plate must be fully
lowered to achieve grill marks on the
selected foods.
NOTE
Foods may be cooked with the top cooking
plate in the open or closed position.
Cooking with the top plate closed will create
grill marks on both sides of the food.
5. Grilling times will depend on the food
being cooked. Refer to Grilling Guide
(page 9) or Grilling Recipes (page 12).
6. When the food is grilled, use the handle
to open the grill and raise the top cooking
plate. Remove food with the help of a plastic
or wooden spatula. Never use metal tongs
or a knife as these can cause damage to the
non-stick coating.
NOTE
Always allow the grill to pre-heat until the
green READY light illuminates.
