Use the appliance to cook burgers, boneless or thin pieces of meat and fish, and vegetables.

1. Place food onto the lower grill plate, lower the upper grill plate onto the food (the "Closed" position). The upper grill plate will self-adjust to the thickness of the food. If cooking items in which the upper grill plate is not needed, such as kebabs or fish, leave the product in the "Open" position.

NOTE: In "Closed" position, food will cook quickly since both grill plates cook at the same time.

NOTE: If cooking more than one piece of food at a time, food items should be similar in thickness to ensure that the upper grill plate rests evenly on the food for even cooking.

1. When cooking is completed, remove food, unplug the product from the electrical outlet, and allow the product to cool (at least 30 minutes) before moving, disassembling, or cleaning it.

CAUTION: Always unplug the product from the electrical outlet when cooking is complete and when the product is not in use.
