promotional materials and packaging materials, and check that the cooking
plates are clean and free of dust.

• Clean the grill and the accessories (See "Cleaning and care"). It is
recommended to heat up the grill for about 10 minutes without any
food in order to eliminate any grease that may have adhered during the
manufacturing process.
• Ventilate the room during this period. When your Panini/Grill is heated for
the fi rst time, it may emit slight smoke or odor. This is normal with many
heating appliances. This does not affect the safety of your appliance.

NOTE: Ensure that the cord is kept well away from the cooking surfaces at all
times while in use or when the unit is hot.
• With the thermostat set to "Min", plug the appliance in. The red light will
light up.

temperature level. Preheat the grill to reach the ideal cooking temperature.
When the appliance reaches the desired temperature, the green pilot light

will light up.
NOTE: Green pilot light may turn on and off during cooking. This indicates
that the thermostat is maintaining the proper cooking temperature to grill to
perfection.
• Position the fat collecting tray near the spout on the left side of the
appliance.
WARNING: THE METAL TOP COVER GETS VERY HOT. KEEP HANDS
AND OTHER OBJECTS AWAY FROM IT.
To Use as a Contact Grill
Use the Panini/Grill as a contact grill to cook burgers, boneless pieces of meat
and thin cuts of meat and vegetables.
• Set the Panini/Grill Temperature Control to your desired setting. At fi rst,
try a setting near the "max" setting. You may later adjust it lower or
higher according to your preference.
• Prepare the burgers, boneless pieces of meat and thin cuts of meat or other
foods as directed and place it onto the bottom cooking plate.
• Close the top cooking plate which has a fl oating hinge that is designed
to evenly press down on the food. The top plate must be fully lowered to
achieve Grill marks on the selected foods.
