SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This product is for household use only.
POLARIZED PLUG (USA/Mexico)
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To
reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized
outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the
plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to
modify the plug in any way.
GROUNDED PLUG (Canada)
As a safety feature, this product is equipped with a grounded plug, which will
only fit into a three-prong outlet. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.
Improper connection of the grounding conductor may result in the risk of
electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether
the outlet is properly grounded.
TAMPER-RESISTANT SCREW
Warning: This appliance is equipped with a tamper-resistant screw to prevent
removal of the outer cover. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not
attempt to remove the outer cover. There are no user-serviceable parts inside.
Repair should be done only by authorized service personnel.
ELECTRICAL CORD
1. A short power cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from
becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
2. If a long detachable power cord or extension cord is used:
a) The marked electrical rating of the detachable power cord or extension
cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance.
b) If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a
grounding-type 3-wire cord.
c) The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the
countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over.
Note: If the power cord is damaged, it should be replaced by qualified
personnel; in Latin America, by an authorized service center.
HOW TO USE
This product is for household use only.
PREHEATING THE GRILL
• Close lid and plug cord into outlet.
• Allow grill to preheat 3 minutes before grilling. When grilling temperature is
reached, the green preheat indicator light turns off.
GRILLING
• Using a pot holder, carefully open the preheated grill.
Note: Aerosol cooking spray should not be used on nonstick surface.
Chemicals that allow spray to come out of a can build up on surface of grill
plates and reduce their efficiency.
• Carefully place foods to be cooked on lower grilling plate. Close lid.
Note: Do not overload grill.
• Close cover and allow food to cook for desired time.
• When finished cooking, unplug the appliance.
• Using pot holder or oven mitts carefully open lid.
Note: Always use heatproof plastic, nylon or wood utensils to avoid scratching
nonstick surface of grill plates. Never use metal skewers, tongs, forks or knives.
• Allow the drip tray to cool before removing it from under the grill. Wash and
dry the grease tray after each use.
TOASTING
1. To turn on toasting plate, flip the toasting switch to the "ON" position.
Note: For best results, allow toasting plate to preheat for 4 minutes.
2. Lift up the toasting plate lid using the tab at the front edge.
3. Place buns or bread on toasting plate with the side you wish to toast facing down.
Bun toaster fits up to 2 sets of standard sized buns. For best results, do not
overlap the buns.
4. When bread is in place, lower the lid until it is fully closed and secured. Do not
force the lid closed. Press gently to close lid.
5. Allow 5-6 minutes for adequate toasting. Add or subtract time for preferred level
of doneness.
6. When done toasting, flip the toasting switch to the "OFF" position.
Caution: The bun toaster has a separate operating switch, but cannot be operated
without the contact grill in operation as well. If you want to toast bread, but do not
want to cook anything on the contact grill, please be aware that the contact grill
surface will be ON and will become very hot.
Warning: Do not keep cooked food (such as meat, vegetables, potatoes, etc.) in
the toasting section for warming or finishing. Do not try to cook any foods other than
bread in the toasting section.
Note: The bun toaster lid is BPA-free.
Note: Do not use metal utensils on the toasting surface.
CARE AND CLEANING
Caution: To avoid accidental burns, allow your grill to cool
completely.
This product contains no user serviceable parts. Refer service to qualified
service personnel.
1. Empty the drip tray, clean with warm, soapy water. Wipe dry.
2. Wipe outside of unit with a warm, wet sponge. Dry with soft, dry cloth.
3. DO NOT use steel wool, scouring pads or abrasive cleaners on any part of the grill.
4. DO NOT immerse in water or any other liquid.
5. Make sure to hold the lid open by hand while cleaning to prevent
accidental closing and injury.
6. Any servicing requiring disassembly other than the above cleaning
must be performed by a qualified service personnel.
