6. Now you’re ready to grill. Check both Temperature Dials (Figure G), making sure
they are in the OFF position. Insert the power cord into the socket (never use an
extension cord). The RED light next to each Temperature Dial will illuminate.
Note: If lights fail to come on, unplug the grill and test the outlet. If the outlet is
functioning properly do not use the grill and immediately contact customer services.
7. Set desired grilling temperature for each grilling surface.
Ex: For 8 oz hamburgers cooked both sides at once, select 175˚ C on both dials. If
grill has just been plugged in, allow a few minutes for grill surface to reach proper
temperature.
Note: You may grill up to 12 burgers if you use the grill in the open position. However,
you will have to flip the burgers and increase the cooking time accordingly.

burgers while pressing the two black release buttons (Figure B). Wear an oven mitt
and avoid touching grilling surface. The Floating Hinge (Figure H) adjusts the grilling
surfaces to accommodate the thickness of the food. Slide the switch to the unlock
position and then pull up to the height desired, then slide the switch to the locked
position. The cooking times suggested in this manual or in the recipe book may be
adjusted to personal taste.
9. When food is thoroughly cooked, make sure that the grill handle is facing you,
push button (Figure A) to open grill to the right angle position and remove the
food. Wear an oven mitt and avoid touching grilling surface.

AC plug from the wall socket.

Note: To release the grilling plate from its locked position once it is thoroughly cooled,
simply press the black round button (Figure E) and remove the grilling plate for easy
clean up.
