INSTALLATION

WARNING!

Only a qualified person must install this appliance.

• Remove all the packaging.
• Do not install or use a damaged appliance.
• Obey the installation instruction supplied with the appliance.
• Keep the minimum distance from the other appliances and units.
  Always be careful when you move the appliance because it is heavy. Always wear safety gloves.
• Seal the cut surfaces with a sealant to prevent moisture to cause swelling.

• Protect the bottom of the appliance from steam and moisture.

• Do not install the appliance adjacent to a door or under a window. This prevents hot cookware to fall from the appliance when the door or the window is opened.

• If the appliance is installed above drawers make sure that the space, between the bottom of the appliance and the upper drawer, is sufficient for air circulation.
• Make sure that the ventilation space of 5 mm, between the worktop and the front of the below unit, is free. The warranty does not cover damages caused by the lack of an adequate ventilation space.
• The bottom of the appliance can get hot. We recommend to install a non-combustile separation panel under the appliance to prevent access to the bottom.

Electrical connection

WARNING!

Risk of fire and electrical shock.

• All electrical connections must be made by a qualified electrician.
• Before every wiring make sure the main terminal of the appliance is not live.
• Make sure the appliance is installed correctly. Loose and incorrect plug and socket can make the terminal become too hot.
• Make sure that a shock protection is installed.
• Do not let the electricity bonds touch the appliance or hot cookware, when you connect the appliance to the near sockets.
• Do not let the electricity bonds tangle.
• Use a strain relief clamp on cable.
• Use the correct mains cable.
• Make sure not to cause damage to the mains plug and to the mains cable. Contact the Service or an electrician to change a damaged mains cable.

• The electrical installation must have an isolation device which lets you disconnect the appliance from the mains at all poles. The isolation device must have a contact opening width of minimum 3 mm.

• Use only correct isolation devices: line protecting cut-outs, fuses (screw type fuses removed from the holder), earth leakage trips and contractors.

USE

WARNING!

Risk of injury, burns or electric shock.

• Use this appliance in a household environment.
• Do not change the specification of this appliance.
• Do not use an external timer or a separate remote-control system to operate the appliance.
• Do not let the appliance stay unattended during operation.

• Do not put cutlery or saucepan lids on the cooking zones. They can become hot.
• Set the cooking zone to "off" after each use. Do not rely on the pan detector.
• Do not use the appliance as a work surface or as a storage surface.
• If there is a crack on the surface, disconnect power supply to prevent the electrical shock.
• Users with a pacemaker must keep a distance of minimum 30~cm from the induction cooking zones when the appliance is in operation.

WARNING!

Risk of fire or explosion.

• Fats and oil when heated can release flammable vapours. Keep flames or heated objects away from fats and oils when you cook with them.
• The vapours that very hot oil releases can cause spontaneous combustion.
• Used oil, that can contain food remnants, can cause fire at a lower temperature than oil used for the first time.
• Do not put flammable products or items that are wet with flammable products in, near or on the appliance.
• Do not try to extinguish a fire with water. Disconnect the appliance and cover the flame with a lid or a fire blanket.

WARNING!

Risk of damage to the appliance.

• Cookware made of cast iron, aluminium or with a damaged bottom can cause scratches on the glass ceramic. Always lift these objects up when you have to move them on the cooking surface.

CARE AND CLEANING

WARNING!

Risk of damage to the appliance.

• Clean regularly the appliance to prevent the deterioration of the surface material.
• Do not use water spray and steam to clean the appliance.
• Clean the appliance with a moist soft cloth. Only use neutral detergents. Do not use abrasive products, abrasive cleaning pads, solvents or metal objects.

DISPOSAL

WARNING!

Risk of injury or suffocation.

• Disconnect the appliance from the mains supply.
• Cut off the mains cable and discard it.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

• You can hear noises when the appliance operates. The noises are normal and do not refer to appliance malfunction.

• If you use the appliance frequently, a small unevenness can form in the middle of the cooking surface where the 2 zones touch. This is not a defect in the cooking surface and its operation is not affected. Therefore:

• Do not put cookware in the middle of the cooking surface between the zones, as the unevenness can make them unsteady.

• Frying on the surface, where the zones touch, can cause in uneven browning (e. g. with pancakes).

THE MOST IMPORTANT FEATURES OF YOUR APPLIANCE

• The cooking surface has 2 layers of stainless steel with a layer of aluminium between them. It has a high thermal capacity, which prevents temperatures from quickly decreasing (e.g. when you prepare meat directly from the refrigerator).
  Each Teppan Yaki grill surface is unique because they are made by hand and grounded by grinding specialists. Differ

ences in the grinding pattern are normal and do not cause problems in how the appliance operates. Also, the more you use your grill, the more valuable it looks.

• The groove around the edge:

• Decreases the temperature of the installation surfaces, which lets you install the cooking surface into different types of kitchen worktops.

• Absorbs some of the expansion of the heated cooking surface through its indentation.
• Collects small food remnants and liquids which you can easily remove after the operation.
• The necessary temperature can be kept constant by the thermostat with a readable temperature setting. This prevents overheating of the food and permits low-fat cooking that keeps the nutritional values of the food.
• The food is heated directly on the cooking surface, with or without oil. There is also the option of cooking with pots or pans.
• The grill surface heats to a temperature of 180^ in approximately 4 minutes. The temperature of the grill surface decreases from 180^ to 100^ in approximately 25 minutes, and to 60^ in approximately 60 minutes.
• You must always preheat the cooking surface before an operation.

HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS

ÖKO TIMER (ECO TIMER)

To save energy, the heater of the roasting zone deactivates before the count down timer sounds. The difference in the operation time depends on the heat setting level and the length of the cooking operation.

PREPARED FOOD WITH THE TEPPAN YAKI

You prepare the food directly on the roasting surface, with or without oil. You can also use pots or pans, but the cookware does not heat up as quickly as it does on a glass-ceramic hob or a gas hob. You can cook or keep warm side dishes or sauces in pots or pans. Put them directly on the cooking surface.

The manufacturer does not recommend that you boil large quantities of water on the roasting surface (e.g. for spaghetti).

The noises are normal and are not the result of an appliance malfunction.
