If this happens, press the upper and lower grill platepower buttons off, leave the griddle to cool completely and then reattach the grill plate so itis firmly in position before preheating again.• If extra greasing is required, it is advisable to wash the grill plates and ensure they arecompletely dry before brushing or wiping over very lightly with a brush or piece of cleankitchen towel coated with a little butter or oil.• When preheating the griddle it is advisable to do so with the lid shut.• Always ensure your griddle is preheated properly before cooking on it otherwise your foodmay stick and not cook through properly.• When cooking cuts of meat such as chicken breasts, pork fillet or even steaks, flatten eachslightly to ensure they are of the same thickness before cooking.• If preparing a recipe whereby you need to cook more than one food on the griddle beforecleaning it, it may be helpful to lightly brush any residue from the cooked foods from thegrill plates by using a pastry style brush which has heat resistant bristles or a sheet of kitchentowel.• Do make sure you empty and wash out the drip tray after each use of the griddle.• Do keep an eye on the drip tray during cooking foods such as marinated chicken and meatsto make sure it does not overflow with drained juices.• If cooking in the flat/open position, do remember that you will need to turn the food overduring cooking.• When cooking in the closed position, you will not need to turn foods during cooking becausethey are being cooked on both sides already.• However, if you are cooking meats which are cut into strips, the meat will benefit from beingmoved around halfway during cooking to ensure the slices don’t stick together.14
