Grilling in FLAT Position

Note: When cooking on both LOWER and UPPER plates in FLAT mode, ensure that your food is spread evenly amongst both plates. Always place the food with the longest cooking time on the LOWER plate. When cooking on one plate, only use LOWER plate.

	1 Ensure that your drip tray is in position
	under the LOWER plate to allow grease to
	fall into the drawer. (see fig. 4 for correct
	position.) Do not allow the drip tray to
	protrude from the back of the unit (see
	fig. 5). We recommend adding 3/4 of a
	cup of water to the drip tray to help

	minimize smoking.

2Always start in the FLOAT position with the grill closed as shown in fig. 3. Plug into a 120-volt 60 HZ AC grounded outlet only. Preheat the grill to the desired temperature. The red light will turn on indicating that the appliance is preheating. After approximately 10 minutes, the green light will turn on indicating that the appliance is preheated and ready for use.

3Set the Hinge Selector to the FLAT position. Open the top housing by the black handle until is lays completely flat. To return to any other mode, set the Hinge Selector to FLOAT and close the top housing (see fig. 3).

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

WARNING! Open the grill 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. Note: Extreme care must be used when operating this appliance as surface temperatures get extremely hot.

4When you have finished using your appliance, disconnect the plug from the wall and allow the unit to cool completely before cleaning.

Assembling Plates

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.

LOWER Plate

Standing in front of your unit, grasp the lower plate (identified on the right side of the plate as LOWER) and line up the two rear locking pins (see figure 9) 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 LOWER plate into

figure 9	place. You will hear a click indicating that the plate
	has locked into place. To ensure that your plate is
	locked, gently try to lift it up.
	UPPER Plate
	Standing in front of your unit, grasp the UPPER
	plate (identified on the right side of the plate as
	UPPER) and align the two rear locking pins on the
	back of the UPPER plate with the two receptacles
	in the top housing (see fig. 10). Gently press the
	front of the UPPER plate in until you hear a click
figure 10
	indicating that the plate has locked into place. To
	ensure that your plate is locked, gently try to pull
	it out.

WARNING! Ensure that your plates are locked into place before attempting to cook with this appliance. A serious burn injury can occur if your top plate is improperly seated as it could fall out of the housing. If you have followed the above instructions and your plate still does not lock, or is not properly seated, do not use the appliance. Contact our customer service center at 800-275-8273.
