1. This product is intended solely for indoor, non-commercial,

non-industrial, household use in cooking/heating food for human

consumption. Do not use the product outdoors or for any other purpose.

2. Do not allow the Power Cord to hang where it may be tripped over or

be used if care is exercised in their use. If an extension cord is used:

The marked electrical rating of the extension cord must be at least as great as that

of the product. The cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the

BEFORE FIRST USE

Press the Upper Plate Release Button to remove the upper Grill Plate and then

press the Lower Plate Release Button to remove the lower Grill Plate. Clean the

Grill Plates, the Drip Cups, and the Scraper/Cleaning Tool in warm, soapy water;

rinse and let dry. These parts may also be washed in an automatic dishwasher.

NEVER IMMERSE THE BASE INTO OR EXPOSE IT TO WATER.

Reinsert the upper and lower Grill Plates into their respective positions before use.

See the “Inserting/Changing Plates” subsection below for detailed instructions.

NOTE: When using the Grill Plates for the first time, spray or apply a thin layer

of cooking oil onto the nonstick surfaces of the Plates with a paper towel in order

to season the nonstick surface. As necessary, reapply a thin layer of cooking oil

throughout the life of the Plates to maintain best nonstick performance.

TO ASSEMBLE

Place the product on a clean, flat, level, stable, heat-resistant surface with at least

4-6 inches of space on all sides to allow adequate air circulation.

POSITIONING THE UPPER HOUSING

CLOSED/HEATING POSITION: The

Upper Housing is closed and rests on the

Base. Use this position when starting/heating

the product and when grilling most foods.

OPEN POSITION: The Upper Housing is open.

Place the Product in this position when starting

the Grill function, and when grilling certain

foods in which the upper Grill Plate is not

appropriate, such as pizza or fish. Lift the

Handle until the Upper Housing is at about a

95°angle.

FLAT POSITION: The Upper Housing

is open and level with the Base,

creating two cooking surfaces. Use the

product in this position when grilling

larger amounts of food. To flatten, pull

upon the Hinge Release and push the

Handle down.

INSERTING/ CHANGING PLATES

Slide the notches in the rear of the lower Grill Plate into the retaining hooks, then

press down on the front of the plate to snap it into place. Repeat to attach the

upper Grill Plate.

TO USE:

Warning: The Grill Plates and metal surfaces of the Upper Housing and Handle

will become very hot during use. To avoid a burn hazard, wear protective oven

mitts or potholders when using and touch only the black portion of the Handle.

NOTE: Use only heat-resistant wooden, plastic, or silicone utensils to add/remove

food. Do not use a metal utensil as it may scratch the surface of the item. During

the first, light smoke may emit. This is normal and will subside with further use.

OPERATION

NOTE: Food will cook quicker in the “closed” position since both sides cook at

the same time.

1. Plug the cord into an outlet and press the ON/OFF button, a buzzer will

ring, and the Contact Griddle will power on with the digital display

illuminated.

2. The surroundings will continue to flicker, and the default temperature

of 400 °F will be displayed.

3. To switch to the GRIDDLE setting, turn the knob, and the default

temperature 350 ° F will be blinking on the digital display.

4. To change the temperature, push the knob inward, and turn the knob to

reduce or increase by 25 ° F. When choosing GRILL, the temperature

ranges from 175 ° F to 450 ° F, when transferred to 450 ° F, SEAR will be

displayed. When choosing GRIDDLE, the temperature ranges from 175 °

F to 400 ° F.

5. When the temperature is selected, push the knob inward, the temperature

will stop flashing, and the PREHEAT will begin with the progress bar

displayed.

6. When the progress bar has displayed all six bars, the contact griddle is

finished preheating. The Buzzer will ring three times, and time 00:00

will be flashing.

7. Turn the knob to determine the cook time. Turn the knob left for a

reduction of 30 seconds and right for an increase of 30 seconds

(maximum time set of 59:30). Once set, press the knob inward and the

timer will start.

8. After the completion, the Buzzer will ring 3 times and the timer will start

increasing. The Contact Griddle will Buzz once every interval of 10

seconds. Turning the knob cancels the time and resets it to 00:00. Press

the ON/OFF Button to shut off the appliance.

NOTE: The contact griddle can extend 180 ° by pressing the Hinge-Release Lever
