To insert cooking plates
Adjust the Griddler
®
Compact to the flat
position with the
temperature knob
directly in front of
you. Insert one plate
at a time. Each plate
is designed to fit in either the upper housing
or the lower housing of the Griddler
®
Compact.
If you are facing the Griddler
®
Compact, the
drip spout should be at the rear of the plate.
Locate the metal brackets at the center of
the housing. Tilt the back end of the plate
and line up the cutouts at the back of the
plate with the metal brackets. Slide the plate
underneath the brackets and push down the
front end of the plate. It will snap into place.
Turn the Griddler
®
Compact around and
insert the second plate on either its grill or
griddle side into the upper housing as you
did with the first plate.
To remove cooking plates
1. Once the Griddler
®
Compact has
cooled, adjust to
the flat position.
Locate the plate
release buttons on
one side of the
unit. Press firmly on button and the plate
will pop up slightly from the base.
2. Grasp the plate
with two hands,
slide it out from
under the metal
brackets, and lift it
out of the base.
Press on the other
plate release button to remove the other
cooking plate in the same manner.
To position drip tray
One side of the base
has a slot provided
for the drip tray.
Slide the drip tray
into the base
according to the
instruction on the
tray.
Grease from the food will run off the plates
through the grease spout and into the drip
tray. Grease should be safely disposed of
after the Griddler
®
Compact has cooled
down completely. The drip tray can be
cleaned in the dishwasher.
OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
Once the Griddler
®
Compact is assembled
properly, plug the cord into a standard
electrical outlet. You are now ready to begin
cooking. When the temperature knob is
turned to Low, Medium or High, the red
indicator light will illuminate to indicate that
the power is on.
If you intend to use the Griddler
®
Compact in
the flat position, but you do not need the
entire surface, it is recommended to use the
bottom plate.
We recommend you preheat in the closed
position. It may take up to 7 minutes to reach
operating temperature, depending on the
temperature level that was set. When the
thermostat has reached operating
temperature, the green indicator light will
indicate that the Griddler
®
Compact is
ready for cooking. During operation, the
light will continue to turn on and off as the
thermostat regulates the temperature.
This is normal.
The temperature knob is used to set and
maintain the temperature of the cooking
surface. You may vary the setting of the
temperature knob at any time during cooking,
and may wish to do so depending on the
types of foods on the cooking plate. Refer to
the Helpful Cooking Chart in the recipe book
section (pages 3–4) for recommendations.
Always exercise caution when handling the
Griddler
®
Compact during cooking, as the
housing will become hot during use. To open
the Griddler
®
Compact, grasp the black
plastic area of the handle. This part of the
handle stays cool to the touch while cooking.
The arms are made of die-cast aluminum and
will become hot during use. Do not touch
them during or immediately following cooking.
The cover is made of stainless steel and will
become very hot and should not be touched
during or immediately following cooking. If
you need to adjust the cover, be sure to use
oven mitts to prevent burns.
