Frequently Asked Questions - PARILL GK160 Eldom

How do I use the grill as a contact grill?

Set the thermostat to desired temperature, close the cover, and place food between the plates. The cover will automatically adjust to food thickness. Use the handle to open and close. Do not push down on the cover.

How do I convert the grill to a horizontal grill?

Ensure the device is cold. Press the 180° lock button and open the top cover fully until it lies flat. Then connect and preheat. Use as a traditional grill, turning food occasionally.

What should I do if the grill smokes excessively during first use?

A slight smell and smoke are normal during first use due to manufacturing residues. Ensure proper ventilation (e.g., open a window). Operate the grill without food for a few minutes until the smoke stops.

Can I immerse the grill in water for cleaning?

No. Never immerse any part of the appliance, cord, or plug in water or other liquids. Clean only with a damp cloth and wipe the plates with paper towels to remove grease.

Use only plastic, wooden, or heat-resistant silicone utensils. Metal utensils can damage the non-stick coating. The included spatula is suitable.
