Before using your Contact Grill
Before using your Contact Grill for the first
time, the non-stick cooking plates must be
seasoned to protect the non-stick surface.
Plug the power cord into a 230/240 volt AC
power outlet and turn the power on. Preheat
the contact grill for 5 minutes. Season the
plates by applying a thin coat of cooking oil
onto the surface and rub in with paper towel.
Alternatively add oil to paper towel and rub
over the cooking plates. After this initial
seasoning, there is no need to season the
plates before each use.
Note: When using your Contact Grill for the
first time you may notice a fine smoke haze
being emitted from the unit. This is normal.
It is due to the initial heating of internal
components.
Using your Contact Grill
1. Place on a flat, level, heat-resistant
surface.
2. Plug the power cord into a 230-240 volt
AC power outlet and turn the power ON.
The red Power light will illuminate while
the unit is switched on.
3. Select your desired temperature setting to
suit the type of food you wish to cook.
4. Preheat until the Ready light illuminates.
5. After you have completed grilling turn the
power OFF and unplug from the power
outlet.
Note: Ensure the cord is kept well away from
the cooking plates when in use.
Grilling meats and vegetables
Note: Preheat your Contact Grill until the
Ready light illuminates before use.
1. Spray the grill plates with cooking oil
before placing meat, seafood or vegetables
onto the bottom grill plate.
2. Gently lower the lid to ensure even
cooking of your food everytime.
3. When cooking some foods you may want
to re-spray the grill plates to prevent food
from sticking.
4. The cooking plates are coated with a
durable non-stick coating. Some foods
that are marinated or coated may cause
the food to stick to the grill plates.
To free the food use heat-resistant plastic
or wooden utensils only. Never use a sharp
or metal object as this will damage the
non-stick surface.
Note: The Ready Light is thermostatically
controlled and will cycle on and off
during cooking to ensure that the correct
temperature is maintained.
Caution: Do not touch the outside or the top
of the unit when in use. Ensure you use
the handle to open the top grill plate. Avoid
touching hot surfaces. The contact grill may
generate steam from between the grill plates
while food is cooking and when the top plate
is opened. Take care when removing food
from the grill.
