ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

Unpack your George Foreman BBQ Grill and check that all the parts are present (See fig. A)

1. Before first use wash the grill plate, drip tray and lid in warm soapy water. [Wipe it

off with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly].

CAUTION: DO NOT IMMERSE THE TEMPERATURE CONTROL PROBE IN WATER

OR ANY OTHER LIQUID. TO CLEAN, WIPE WITH A DAMP CLOTH

AND DRY THOROUGHLY.

2. Place the pedestal stand on a flat, level surface.
3. Insert the slotted end of the lower pedestal tube into the hole in the centre of the

pedestal stand and push down firmly.

4. Insert the tapered end of the upper pedestal tube into the top of the lower pedestal

tube and screw the tubes together (turn 10-12 times in a clockwise direction, or

until secure).

5. Place the grill base on top of the pedestal tube assembly through the hole in the

centre of the grill base. Rotate slightly so that the tabs on the pedestal tube assem-

bly align with the slots in the grill base and the grill base is level. Lift the locking

latch up so it matches up with the locking ring on the bottom of the grill base then

firmly lock into place (See B).

6.  Slide the drip tray into the grill base using the guiding rails.
7.  Attach the lid knob to the lid from inside the lid.
8.  Place t

he lid over the grill. Your barbeque grill is now ready for use.

GRILLING OUTDOORS

• Ensure the temperature control probe socket on the BBQ is completely dry.
• Insert the temperature control probe into the probe socket on the BBQ.

NOTE: This BBQ must only be used with the temperature control provided. Do not

use any other probe or connector.

• Turn temperature control probe to the OFF position and attach securely into the

probe receptacle.

• Plug into power outlet. Align desired temperature setting with the indicator light.

Place lid securely on grill. Allow barbeque grill to pre-heat to desired tempera-

ture for approximately 10 minutes. See COOKING CHARTS for more details.

• Carefully lift the lid and place food onto grill plate, and cover (cover is used for

most foods). Adjust temperature as needed. The light on the temperature control

probe will cycle on and off as the thermostat maintains the proper temperature.

This is normal operation.

NOTE: Condensation may collect on the inside of the lid when cooking. Use

caution when opening lid.

• When finished cooking, turn temperature control probe to the OFF position. The

indicator light will go off. Unplug and allow to cool before disassembling and

cleaning. See (‘CLEANING Instructions’).

NOTE: The temperature control probe may be turned to setting 1 to keep foods

warm for short periods of time.

HINTS FOR GRILLING

•   Use tender cuts of meat for grilling.
•   Marinate tougher cuts of meat to tenderize them before grilling.
•   To avoid drying out meat and fish, turn only once and do not pierce.
•   To turn meat and fish, use a large flat plastic or wooden spatula to support the

food.

• Place meat or chicken to be roasted in a shallow baking pan. Cover pan with a

lid or foil (optional depending on cooking style). Using oven mitts, carefully place

pan on preheated grill, taking care not to scratch the non-stick surface. Place lid

on the barbeque grill.

• Use only plastic or wooden utensils on non-stick surface.

CAUTION: Grill surfaces are hot during use. Allow grill plate, drip tray, lid and base

to cool completely before handling and cleaning.

CAUTION: Because some countertop finishes are more affected by heat than

others, make sure countertop surface can withstand temperatures of 150°F/66°C

to prevent discoloration or other damage to the countertop surface.

USING INDOORS

To use your INDOOR/OUTDOOR BARBEQUE GRILL indoors, simply lift grill base off

pedestal tube and place on a heat-resistant surface.

CAUTION: Never use grill without the grill base in place.

Plasticizer Warning

Caution: To prevent plasticizers from migrating from the finish of the countertop

or tabletop or other furniture, place NON-PLASTIC coasters

or placemats between the appliance and the finish of the countertop

or tabletop.

Failure to do so may cause the finish to darken, permanent blemishes may occur

or stains can appear.

CLEANING

CAUTION: Always unplug from the wall power outlet and allow the grill

to cool before cleaning.

CAUTION: Do not immerse the temperature control probe in water or any

other liquid.

• Unplug and allow to cool before disassembling and cleaning. Thoroughly clean

all parts after each use.

• Remove temperature control probe (DO NOT IMMERSE). Wipe with a damp

cloth and dry thoroughly.

• Remove the grill base from the pedestal tube and empty the drip tray.
• Wash the grill plate, drip tray, and lid with a cloth or soft sponge dampened with

warm soapy water. Wipe dry with a soft cloth or paper towel.

• To remove stubborn spots, gently rub with a cloth dampened with cooking oil

while the cooking plates are still warm (NOT hot).

CAUTION: Do not use scouring pads, scrapers, or metal objects to clean the

cooking plates. They will damage the surface.

• After washing the grill plate wipe the uncoated side with a dry towel to prevent

discoloration. Washing may cause oxidation on the uncoated side of the grill

plate. This is not harmful and may be wiped off with a damp towel.

• DO NOT WASH THE GRILL PLATE IN THE DISHWASHER.

CAUTION: Temperature control probe socket must always be completely dry

before use.

NOTE: To purchase a George Foreman grill sponge, please contact customer

service (Phone: 1800 623 118).

QUICK COOKING GUIDE

Use these times purely as a guide. The times reflect a full grill of food. Times will vary

due to the cut or thickness of the meat being cooked. To be sure that the food is truly

done, use a cooking thermometer. If the meat does need more time to cook, simply

place the meat back on the grill for 5 minutes increments and check periodically so

you don’t over cook.

GRILL CHART

• Preheat INDOOR/OUTDOOR BARBEQUE GRILL
• Grill food according to the recommended time or until desired result. Turn

halfway through cooking time, or more often if necessary.

• Boneless cuts of meat will grill more evenly and not scratch the non-stick

surface

• Leave the lid on during cooking to decrease cooking time and keep food

moist and juicy.

• Let meat rest 5 minutes before serving.

KEEP IT DRY

• The grill is rated IPX4, so it’s officially “splashproof”. This means it’ll stand

a bit of gentle rain, but not a lot.

• As a rough guide, if it’s wet enough to make you think seriously of getting

under cover, then the grill should be undercover.

• The temperature control probe and the probe socket on the BBQ must

be completely dry before using.

OUTDOOR ELECTRICITY

• The appliance is suitable for outdoor use.
• The supply cord should be regularly examined for signs of damage, if the cord

is damaged the appliance must NOT be used.

• The appliance must be supplied through a residual current device (RCD) having

a rated residual operating current not exceeding 30mA.
