Before Your First Use

Using Your Tri-Grill

Carefully unpack the appliance and remove all packaging materials. Remove the cooking plates and wash in warm soapy water or place in the dishwasher.

We recommend a “trial run” at a high temperature to eliminate any protective substance or oil that may have been used for packing and shipping. Set the temperature to 450° and run for 15 minutes. You may notice some smoking coming from your Tri-Grill during this initial phase.

WARNING: Do not immerse the appliance, cord or plug in water.

Never operate this appliance without the grill plates locked into position on the main housing. See “Assembling and Removing Plates” on pages 12 - 13.

To remove any dust that may have accumulated during packaging, wipe the exterior with a clean, damp cloth.

Important: Do not use harsh or abrasive cleansers on any part of the appliance.

Timer Feature

Place your Tri-Grill on a flat, level, stable surface. Your Tri-Grill can be used in three different configurations. The Hinge Selector (see figure 1) allows you to select between Float, Flat, and Fixed Height. Always start in the closed position (see figure 2) and then adjust the Hinge Selector to your desired position. Ensure that prior to preheating this appliance that you have the desired plates locked into place.

WARNING: To prevent a serious burn injury, always ensure that your Tri-Grill is unplugged and has completely cooled prior to removing or adding plates. Always dry plates thoroughly prior to installing on the unit.

Do not use metal utensils as they will scratch the nonstick coating, use only nylon or plastic utensils.

About Your Tri-Grill

Your Wolfgang Puck Tri-Grill is a versatile appliance that allows you to grill food with the plates in three different positions. Grill with the plates in a FLOAT position, with the grill opened FLAT for grill and griddle cooking, or in a FIXED HEIGHT position, which is perfect for melting cheese on open-faced sandwiches or hamburgers.

The Timer is a convenient feature for timing your cooking. The Timer bell will ring once the set time has elapsed. Cooking will continue until you manually turn the temperature control off. The Timer does not control the power to your Tri-Grill.
