Helpful Hints

Be sure to always wash the grill plates after each use to remove any residue that may have accumulated.

Do not use sharp objects or attempt to cut food on top of the grill plates.

Always preheat for 8 minutes until the green ready light illuminates before use. Have all ingredients in place before cooking starts.

For best results, spread mayonnaise on both outer sides of panini sandwiches before cooking. This will give darker, crustier grill marks on the bread.

Do not use metal utensils, as this may damage the nonstick surface of the grill plates.

If additional sandwiches are desired, lower the lid to preserve the heat while you prepare the additional sandwiches.

Let sandwiches cool slightly before eating. Cheese, especially, becomes very hot. Soft or melted fillings will firm slightly.

The “High” setting on the dial was designed for searing and blackening. It is also excellent for grilling tuna steaks. Simply place a 1-inch tuna steak on ribbed grill plates for 1 - 2 minutes for a perfect medium rare, or to desired doneness.
