angle of the cooking plates to the desired
position by turning the PLATE TILT dial.
The PLATE TILT dial is located on the

ture that responds to PLATE TEMP.
3. To open the grill:
a) Ensure the grill has completely preheated
and the LCD screen no longer flashes the
selected temperature that corresponds to
PLATE TEMP.
b) Ensure the top cooking plate is closed. The
Adjustable Height Control Clip, located on
the right side of the top plate, should be in
the OPEN position.
c) Use the handle to open the top plate to a
90 degree position.
4. Place food on the bottom cooking plate.

plate. When cooking open melts it is

cooking plates using heat proof plastic or
wooden utensils.

the OFF position.
FOR BEST RESULTS
When toasting sandwiches on the PANINI
setting:
• Always place sandwiches in the centre
bottom plate.
• Toasting should take approximately
5–8 minutes. Exact toasting time will be a
matter of preference and the type of bread
and fillings used. For more tips and tricks,
refer to grilling tips (page 15) and recipes
(page 19).
• Never use metal or sharp utensils as these
can cause damage to the non-stick coating
of the cooking plates.
WARNING
• The surfaces of the grill are hot during and
after operation. Always use the integrated
leveling support/PLATE RELEASE on the
front, right side of the top cooking plate
when adjusting the position of the top plate.
Alternatively, use protective hot pads or
insulated oven mitts.
• Never grip the levelling support or use it
to open the top cooking plate. Always use
the grill handle to open and close the top
cooking plate.
• The levelling support may get hot during
and after operation. Always use the levelling
support as pictured.
• Fully unwind the power cord from the cord
storage before use.
