To use as a PANINI Press

1.Insert the power plug into a 110/120V power outlet then press the ON/OFF switch to ON.

2.Turn the variable temperature control to PANINI setting. Allow the grill to preheat with the top cooking plate in the closed position until the green READY light illuminates.

3.During this time prepare the panini. When the Panini Grill has pre-heated, place the panini onto the bottom cooking plate. Always place panini towards the rear of the bottom cooking plate.

4.Close the top cooking plate. The top cooking plate has a floating hinge that is designed to evenly press down on the panini. The top plate must be fully lowered to cook panini.

NOTE

Foods may be cooked with the top cooking plate in the open or closed position. Cooking with the top plate closed will create grill marks on both sides of the food.

5.Toasting should take approximately 5–8 minutes. Exact toasting time will be a matter of taste. It will also depend on the type of bread and type of filling used.

6.When the panini is cooked, use the handle to open the grill and raise the top cooking plate. Remove panini with the help of a plastic or wooden spatula. Never use metal tongs or a knife as these can cause damage to the non-stick coating.

Using the Adjustable Grilling height control feature

Adjustable height control feature allows you to fix the top plate to a range of positions above the bottom plate. This allows your grill to be used to grill delicate ingredients such as fish and hamburger buns without squashing. It can also be used for toasting open sandwich melts and snacks where you don’t need to apply the weight of the top plate.

1.Turn the variable temperature control to SEAR or PANINI setting and allow the grill to pre-heat until the green READY light illuminates.

2.Place food to be grilled or your panini to be melted on the bottom plate.

3.Move the Adjustable Height Control clip on the right hand side of the grill to the desired height.

4.Slowly lower the top plate until it rests on the adjustable height control clip.

5.The top plate will radiate the desired heat to lightly grill foods or melt ingredients such as cheese. Grilling and toasting times will be a matter of taste. It will depend on the height of the top plate. Also refer to Grilling Guide (page 14) or Grilling Recipes (page 19).

NOTE

The adjustable height control can be moved to accommodate thick or thin foods by sliding the clip forwards or backwards along the arm.
