Adding and Removing Plates

Caution: Always ensure that your Panini Grill is unplugged and has completely cooled prior to removing or adding plates.

Assembling the Plates

Standing in front of your unit grasp the bottom plate and line of the two rear locking pins on the back of the plate with the receptacles in the rear of the unit. Gently lay the plate down and apply downward pressure to snap the front plate locks into place (see figure 1)

Using Your Panini Maker

Your Panini Maker is best used with thick, crusty breads, such as French, Italian, and focaccia. The top grill plate is weighted to compress and grill a Panini to perfection in about 3 minutes (depending on the bread, filling, and personal taste). Your Panini Maker can also be used to grill a variety of food items, such as meats, poultry, fish, and vegetables.

1Completely pull out Drip Drawer prior to use. Place drip tray underneath grease runoff so that any drippings will fall into the tray.

2Preheat the grill to the desired temperature. Close the cover and plug into a 120-volt 60 HZ AC outlet only. The red light will turn on indicating that the appliance is preheating. After approximately 8 minutes, the green light will turn on indicating that the appliance is preheated and ready for use.

3Open the lid using the black handle only, being careful not to touch any hot surfaces such as the housing or grill plates. We recommend the use of oven mitts or potholders to prevent the risk of injury.

4Place items to be cooked on the bottom grill plate.

5Lower the cover and cook the food according to desired temper- ature or doneness. Do not apply excessive force to close the lid and do not lock latch on handle.

Note: The green ready light is thermostatically controlled and will cycle on and off during cooking to ensure that the correct temperature is maintained.

Important: Grill only with the lid in the closed position.

6When you have finished using your appliance, disconnect the plug from the wall and allow the unit to cool down completely before cleaning.
