Polarized Plug This appliance is equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician for assistance. Do not attempt to modify this plug in any way. Do not attempt to defeat the safety purpose of this polarized plug. A s h o r t p o w e r - s u p p l y c o r d is provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Avoid the use of an extension cord because it may overheat and cause a risk of fire. However, if you must use an extension cord, the marked electrical rating should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance. The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counterThank you for using our Haier product. This easy-to-use manual will guide you in getting the best use of your panini grill. Remember to record the model and serial number. They are on a label on the bottom of the product.

USING YOUR PANINI MAKER Conditioning the Grill Plates The grill surfaces must be conditioned before each use. To condition the surfaces, lightly coat with vegetable shortening. Grilling For best results, use thick, crusty breads such as Italian, French and focaccia. The grill can also be used to grill vegetables, meats, poultry and fish. 1. Place the drip tray under the drip spout to catch the grease. Attach the slotted side of the drip tray to the base. 2. Lightly coat the grill surfaces with vegetable shortening. 3. Close the top grill plate and plug the appliance into a standard 120v, 60 Hz outlet. Both the Red Power Indicator Light and the Green Ready-to-Cook Light will turn on. 4. Turn the temperature dial to the desired setting. Allow the grill to preheat to the proper temperature. Some initial smoking may occur. This is normal for new appliances being used for the first time and will not occur after a few uses. Note: Always preheat the grill to ensure even grilling and do so with the top plate in the closed position. 5. The Green Ready-to-Cook Light will turn on again when the unit is preheated and has reached the selected temperature and is ready for use. 6. Lift the top open by the handle, being careful not to touch any hot surfaces such as the housing and the grill plates. 7. Place food onto the grill surfaces and lower the handle. Cook the food to the desired doneness. The Green Ready-to-Cook Light will cycle on and off during the cooking process in order to maintain the proper temperature. The floating hinge system on the right side of the unit is used to adjust for various food thicknesses. Note: Always grill with the lid in the closed position. Do not use sharp objects or attempt to cut food on top of the grill plates. 8. When the food is finished cooking, turn the temperature dial to the “OFF” position. Use a heat-safe plastic or wooden spatula to remove cooked food from the grill. Do not use metal utensils, as they may damage the grill surface. 9. If the grill is to be used again immediately, lower the top plate to preserve the heat while the food is being prepared for grilling. 10. Unplug the unit and allow it to cool completely before draining the remaining grease and before cleaning the unit. Always clean the grill plates and accessories after each use to remove any residue that may have accumulated. See the “CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE” section on the 4 next page.
