Getting To Know Your Grill/Griddle
Product may vary slightly from illustration
Before Using for the First Time
1. Carefully unpack the Grill/Griddle and remove all packaging and materials.
2. Set the appliance on a dry, clean and at surface. Keep the Grill/Griddle closed until use.
3. Slide the removable drip tray under the front of the unit.
4. Push to ensure the drip tray is fully inserted and resting under the grease drain at the back of the unit.
CAUTION: To avoid personal injury or damage to property, always check to make sure removable drip tray
is in position under the grease drain before use.
5. Use the handle to lift the upper cooking plate.
6. Wipe the non-stick cooking plates with a damp cloth to remove all dust. Wipe the Grill/Griddle body with a
slightly damp, soft cloth or sponge. Dry all parts before use.
CAUTION: Take care to prevent water from running into the appliance. NEVER IMMERSE GRILL/GRIDDLE
BODY IN WATER OR ANY OTHER LIQUIDS!
Operating Instructions
1. Removable grill and griddle cooking plates are interchangeable and can be installed in either position.
Depending on the cooking task, size and delicacy of the food, it may be advantageous to re-install a top
grill plate with a bottom griddle plate. See Cooking Plate Removal & Installation in the User Maintenance
Instructions section of this Instruction Manual for a detailed description.
2. When cooking foods with high fat content, use the tilt-up feet to raise the Grill/Griddle’s front 2 legs. This
will enable unwanted grease to empty into the drain at the back of the closed unit, or to the center of the
open Grill/Griddle.
3. Turn the Grill/Griddle over to the underside. The feet will be in the lowered (at) position.
4. Press the center tab of each front foot. Tilt each foot upwards to the raised position.

5. Preheat the Grill/Griddle. Use the handle to close the Grill/Griddle. Check to make sure that the cord does
not come in contact with any exterior parts of the unit. Plug the unit into a 120V AC electrical outlet.
The red POWER light will illuminate and remain lighted during use.
CAUTION: NEVER plug unit in without both upper and lower cooking plates
properly installed.
CAUTION: To avoid personal injury or damage to property, always check to make sure removable drip tray
is in position under the grease drain in the center of the open plates before use.
6. Turn the temperature control dial to the desired heat setting:
NOTE: When the Grill/Griddle is heated for the rst time, it may emit slight smoke or odor. This is normal
and should disappear after 1 or 2 uses. This does not affect the safety of the appliance.
7. Allow the unit to preheat in the closed position. While preheating, prepare food to be cooked.
8. After approximately 5 to 9 minutes, the green READY light will illuminate, indicating the unit has reached
preheat temperature and is ready for use.
NOTE: Please see the Basic Cooking Chart for suggested cooking
temperatures and times.
To Use as a Panini Press (Closed Position)
Panini is a popular sandwich, traditionally made with fresh Italian bread, stuffed with meats, vegetables and
cheese, then pressed and grilled.
It is suggested that foods such as panini, grilled cheese, quesadillas or wraps be cooked on 350°F to 400°F
and checked in 4 to 5 minutes, depending on the thickness and contents.
When grilling breads, meats, vegetables and fruits, times may be shorter than expected as heat cooks
from both upper and lower cooking plates. Watch carefully to avoid over cooking.
When cooking foods with high fat content, use the tilt-up feet to raise the Grill/Griddle’s front 2 legs.
NOTE: Please see the Basic Cooking Chart for suggested cooking temperatures and times.
1. Preheat the Grill/Griddle as described in the Operating Instructions.
2. Turn the temperature control dial to adjust the heat. Generally, use 350°F to 400°F to make perfect
pressed, grilled panini.
IMPORTANT: When cooking a combination of foods, prepare so that the thickness of all food is consistent.
This will allow food to cook quickly, evenly and produce rich grill marks.
3. For best results, wearing a protective oven mitt, use a brush or paper towel to lightly coat the cooking
surfaces with solid vegetable shortening, butter, or vegetable oil.
NOTE: DO NOT USE NON-STICK SPRAYS AS THEY CAN CAUSE BUILD-UP ON THE COOKING PLATES.
USE OLIVE OIL INSTEAD.
WARNING: DO NOT USE NON-FAT SPREADS. THEY MAY BURN AND DAMAGE THE NON-STICK
COOKING PLATES.
4. Center food on the bottom cooking plate.
IMPORTANT: Never overcrowd the cooking plate.
5. Pull the handle down gently. The oating hinge will allow the top plate to lie evenly on top of the food.
6. During cooking, the green READY light will cycle on and off as the Grill/Griddle maintains the proper
cooking temperature. The temperature can be adjusted at any time by turning the temperature control
dial to the desired setting.
7. Remove grilled food from the cooking plate(s) using a non-metallic utensil. A plastic spatula will help to
remove delicate food in one piece. Non-scratching tongs are helpful when grilling meats or sausages.
WARNING: The Grill/Griddle becomes very hot. Avoid touching the top or sides of the cooking plates
after heating.
WARNING: Never use a sharp or metal object as it may damage the non-stick surface of the griddle or
grill plates.
CAUTION: Do not leave appliance unattended during use!
8. When food is nished cooking, turn the temperature control dial to 200°F. Remove the plug from the
wall outlet
WARNING! ALWAYS UNPLUG UNIT WHEN COOKING IS FINISHED. OTHERWISE, THE GRILL/GRIDDLE
WILL CONTINUE TO HEAT UNTIL UNIT IS UNPLUGGED.

Panini Press Hints for Best Results
It is customary to prepare panini using a hearty loaf of bread. However, panini made from store-bought
sliced breads or rolls can be delicious and simple to prepare. Experiment with a variety of breads, tortillas,
atbreads, even pitas.
For health-conscious cooks, the non-stick coating of the cooking plates assures crisp and delicious
toasting without the use of oil or butter. However, spreading a small amount of butter or olive oil is
recommended to encourage even browning of the bread.
Always preheat the Grill/Griddle in the closed position before each use.
Have all ingredients at hand before preparing panini.
When using soft or liquid llings, use thicker-sliced breads.
Remove the insides of soft rolls to create a cup in which lling can be added.
Most fruits release juice when heated. Drain and pat fresh or canned fruit dry with a clean paper towel
before grilling.
Avoid using processed cheeses, as they tend to “run” under high temperatures.
A teaspoon of sugar sprinkled on the buttered side makes grilled panini crispier and adds avor when
using sweet llings.
Whole grain and sweet breads will grill faster than white breads and should be grilled for less time.
After you have removed nished panini, close the top grill plate to retain heat while assembling
more sandwiches.
To avoid food contamination, wearing a protective oven mitt, use a soft, absorbent paper towel to wipe
the cooking plates clean after each use.
To Use as a Contact Grill/Griddle (Open Position)
1. When cooking foods with high fat content, use the tilt-up feet to raise the Grill/Griddle’s front 2 legs. Grill
high fat foods on the lower cooking plate to enable unwanted grease to empty into the drain in the center
of the open Grill/Griddle.
2. Preheat the Grill/Griddle as described in the Operating Instructions.
3. Turn the temperature control dial to increase or decrease the temperature from LOW to HIGH.
Generally, use 35F to 400°F to produce rich grill marks on foods or produce a crispier outside with
the griddle.
4. Press the hinge release button located on the right side of the arm. Wearing protective oven mitts, grasp
the handle to lift the upper cooking plate and open to double the cooking surface.
CAUTION: To avoid personal injury or damage to property, always make sure removable drip tray is in
position under the grease drain in the center of the open plates before use.
CAUTION: To prevent risk of burns, always use oven mitts. Be careful not to touch any hot surfaces such
as the top housing or cooking plates, or any hot liquid in the drip tray. Extreme care must be taken when
operating this appliance as the surface temperatures get extremely hot.
5. For best results, wearing a protective oven mitt, use a brush or paper towel to lightly coat the cooking
surfaces with solid vegetable shortening, butter, or vegetable oil.
NOTE: DO NOT USE NON-STICK SPRAYS AS THEY CAN CAUSE BUILD-UP ON THE COOKING PLATES.
USE OLIVE OIL INSTEAD.
WARNING: DO NOT USE NON-FAT SPREADS. THEY MAY BURN AND DAMAGE THE NON-STICK
COOKING PLATES.
6. Center food on the open cooking plate(s).
7. Allow the food on the Grill/Griddle to cook for 3 to 12 minutes, according to recipe directions.
NOTE: Please see the Basic Cooking Chart for suggested cooking temperatures and times. During cooking,
the green READY light will cycle on and off as the unit maintains cooking temperature.
8. The temperature can be adjusted at any time by turning the temperature control dial to the desired setting.
9. Test food with a meat thermometer for doneness. Remove grilled food from the cooking plate(s) using a
non-metallic utensil. A plastic spatula will help to remove delicate food in one piece. Non-scratching tongs
are helpful when grilling meats or sausages.
WARNING: The Grill/Griddle becomes very hot. Avoid touching the top or sides of the cooking plates
after heating.
WARNING: Never use a sharp or metal object as it may damage the non-stick surface of the griddle or
grill plates.
CAUTION: Do not leave appliance unattended during use!
10. When food is nished cooking, turn the temperature control dial to 200°F. Remove the plug from the
wall outlet.
WARNING! ALWAYS UNPLUG UNIT WHEN COOKING IS FINISHED. OTHERWISE, THE GRILL/GRIDDLE
WILL CONTINUE TO HEAT UNTIL UNIT IS UNPLUGGED.
11. Allow Grill/Griddle to cool completely before removing the drip tray or cooking plates to clean the unit.
Basic Cooking Chart
NOTE: Cooking times listed are meant to serve as a guideline only. Proper cooking times will depend on the
thickness of the sandwich or wrap, the cut of meat being grilled, density and thickness of all foods. Test fruits and
