DESCRIPTION
OF
OPERATION
The Instant Burger represents the latest
in
modem
cooking technology.
It
uses a new scientific method
of
direct energy transfer to cook the meat. Rather
than using electricity
to
heat
up
an element,
to
heat
up a griddle, to heat
up
a hamburger; the Instant Bur-
ger passes the energy directly through the hamburger
and causes it
to
heat itself.
It
does this economically,
automatically and
in
a fraction
of
the time necessary
to cook hamburgers by ordinary methods.
In
operation, the hamburgers, either
in
a ball or
pre-formed patties, are place on the bottom plate.
The cover
is
closed. The operator presets the switch
at
"1
" or "2". The "Start" button is then pressed,
automatically starting the cooking cycle. A sophisti-
cated electronic brain then takes over and monitors
the energy to the hamburgers and automatically stops
it at the correct degree
of
doneness. The result is a
delicious tasting meat. This
is
especially true since
no oil or grease
is
used to cook the hamburgers.
The unit can cook practically any type
of
ground
of
tenderized beef, hot dogs, sausage, ground turkey.
It
can reheat precooked chicken breast.

GENERAL
Before cooking, meat must be fully thawed with
no icy spots.
It
should however, be kept under refrig-
eration.
It
is also recommended that the hamburger
meat selected have a
fat
content
of
20
to 30%.
The operation
of
the Instant Burger
is
simple.
Plug the unit into a grounded outlet, 115V, 30 amp
individual branch circuit. Move "Power Switch" to
"On". The green light will come on indicating power
is
"On". "Doneness Selector" switch may be posi-
tioned at
"I"
or "2". Position "2" will cook the
product more thoroughly but less juicy than position
"1".
It
is suggested that position
"2"
be used on the
first cooking
in
the morning when the plates are
cold. Then switch to position
"1"
for subsequent
cookings.
The finished product may look less done than
when cooked on
the"
I" setting when you first open
the cover. Remember, the meat continues
to
brown
for a short period after it finishes cooking.
If
you
coat the top and bottom plate surfaces with a thin
coating
of
cooking oil before you start cooking the
first time, they will stay cleaner longer.

1.
Hamburger patties must be the same weight
to
cook evenly. Place hamburger ball or patty on
each side
of
plate (See Fig. 2). Hamburger must
be placed one on each side (a hamburger portion
on one side will not cook). To cook one ham-
burger, split into two equal parts and place one
halfon each side.
2. Close cover. Lid must be completely closed to
lock
in
place.
3.
To cook press "Start" button. "Cook" (Amber)
light will come on immediately.
4.
When the amber light goes out and the green
light comes on and the beeper sounds the bur-
gers are done.
If
hamburgers are not cooked
sufficiently, close cover and press "Start" button
again. Do not press "Start" button more than
twice. Doing so will result in a bad smell and a
dry product. When amber light goes out and
green light comes on, open cover, remove ham-
burgers and season with One Step Prep
MixTM
.
5.
If
one hamburger is sufficiently cooked and the
other
is
not, remove the cooked hamburger.
Place the uncooked hamburger equally across
the center
of
the bottom plate. Close cover and
press "Start" button again.
If
this happens con-
stantly, see Trouble Shooting Outline " neven
Cooking
of
Hamburgers"
in
Service Manual.
