Operating

Your grill/press features a special

scratch and abrasive-resistant
non-stick coating that makes it
safe to use metal utensils when
cooking.
Regardless of this fact, we recom-
mend that care is taken with the
non-stick coating particularly when
using metal utensils.
Do not use sharp objects or cut
food on top of the grill/press. We
will not be liable for damage to the
non-stick coating where metal
utensils have been misused.
Caution: Ensure you use the han-
1
dle (Fig. 1/E) to open the top grill
