Before Using for the First Time

1. Carefully unpack the 2 Burger Grill and remove all packaging and materials.
2. Set the unit on a dry, clean and flat surface.
3. Keep the 2 Burger Grill closed until use.
4. Use the handle to expose both the upper and lower grill plates.
5. Wipe the non-stick grill plates with a damp cloth to remove all dust. Wipe the 2 Burger Grill body
with a slightly damp, soft cloth or sponge. Dry all parts before use.
CAUTION: Take care to prevent water from running into the appliance.
NEVER IMMERSE BURGER GRILL IN WATER OR ANY OTHER LIQUIDS!
6. Plug the unit into a 120V AC electrical outlet. The red POWER light will illuminate.
7. Operate the unit in the closed position for 2 to 4 minutes without food.
This will burn off residue on the plates.
NOTE: When the grill plates are heated for the first time, they may emit slight smoke or odor. This is
normal and should disappear in a few minutes. This will not affect the safety of the appliance.
8. Condition grill plates. Use a brush or paper towel to lightly coat the grill surfaces with solid
vegetable shortening or vegetable oil. Wipe dry and keep closed until ready to use.

Operating Instructions

CAUTION: To avoid personal injury or damage to property, make sure the removable drip tray is fully
inserted into the front of the unit.
1. Preheat the 2 Burger Grill. Use the handle to close the Burger Grill. Plug the unit into a 120V AC
electrical outlet. The red POWER light will illuminate and remain lighted during use.
2. After approximately 5 minutes, the red light will illuminate, indicating the preheat temperature unit
has been reached and the 2 Burger Grill is ready for use.
3. Oil grill plates before use... or not! Wearing a protective oven mitt, use a heat-proof brush or paper
towel dipped in vegetable oil to lightly coat the upper and lower grill plates to encourage even
browning. For health-conscious cooks, the non-stick coating of the grill plates assures crisp and
delicious toasting without the use of oil or butter.
IMPORTANT: Do not use non-stick sprays as they can cause build-up on the grill plates.
Use vegetable or olive oil instead.
4. Center food on the lower grill plate; then lower the lid. The red light will cycle on and off as the
temperature is maintained.
5. Cook foods according to recipe instructions or consult the General Cooking Chart for reference.
Recipes will vary in cook time and brownness. Note the perfect grill/cooking times for each food
for future reference. WARNING! ALWAYS UNPLUG UNIT WHEN COOKING IS FINISHED.
Otherwise, the 2 Burger Grill will continue to heat until unit is unplugged.
