The rectangular contact plates maximise usable grilling area while the metal construction provides durability and stable heat retention. The moderate overall size and weight make the grill easy to position on standard kitchen counters and to store when not in use.

How to use

Place the grill on a stable, heat-resistant countertop and connect to a grounded power outlet.

Place food on the lower plate, close the lid to make contact with the upper plate and monitor the cooking progress through indicator lights or program signals. After cooking, open the lid carefully and remove food using heat-resistant utensils to avoid damaging the plates. Allow the grill to cool before cleaning following the manufacturer's guidance for removable or non-removable plates.

Recommendations

Use moderate amounts of oil or non-stick spray to reduce sticking and simplify cleaning. For even results, avoid overloading the grilling surface; cook in batches if preparing large quantities. Regularly remove grease and food residues after the unit has cooled to maintain performance and hygiene.
