Helpful Tips and Hints
ALWAYS PREHEAT FOR 6 MINUTES
BEFORE USING.
Read the Use & Care Guide before
using the contact grill.
Use vegetable cooking spray for
convenient, stick-free cooking. Or if
you prefer, brush cooking grids with
vegetable oil before preheating.
Use plastic utensils on the nonstick
cooking grid. Do not use metal uten-
sils as they will damage the nonstick
surface.
Thicker sandwiches may shift when
being pressed. Use a plastic spatula
to reposition. Place sandwich in
center of grill.
Use caution when pushing down on
the handle, as unit may tip forward
and could burn your hand.
When a recipe calls for fruit, lock
the cover in place above the fruit so
that it heats but does not contact
the fruit.
There is no need to press down on
the handle. The weight of the cover
will grill the top of the sandwich.
Cleanup is easy! Let the grill cool
down then wipe cooking grids with
damp paper towel or dish cloth. The
cooking grids may also be washed
in the dishwasher.
Cleaning
1. Unplug grill from outlet and allow to
cool.
2. Wipe cooking grids with a paper
towel to remove drippings. Use a
plastic spatula to scrape away
cooked-on food or grease.
3. To remove grids for cleaning, hold
tab and press
unlock button
of UPPER grid
first. Release
grid. Repeat
with LOWER
cooking grid.
DO NOT REMOVE THE GRIDS
WITH THE GRILL IN AN UPRIGHT
POSITION.
4. Wash grids in hot soapy water.
Rinse then dry. Grids may also be
washed in dishwasher.
5. Do not use steel wool or any type of
abrasive cleaner to clean the grill, as
it will damage the nonstick cooking
grids and void the warranty.
6. Empty drip cup and wash in hot,
soapy water. Rinse then dry. Drip
cup may also be washed in dish-
washer.
7. Replace cooking grids and ensure
they are locked into place. ALWAYS
replace LOWER cooking grid first.
Repeat with UPPER grid.
8. Use a clean, damp cloth to wipe
clean the outside of the grill.
9. Store the unit with the storage latch
locked, sitting
upright on the
hinge side,
with drip cup
placed upside
down under
the handle.
