Frequently Asked Questions - STGR 1600 A2 SILVERCREST

How to assemble the grill stand?

The stand consists of a storage tray, a top plate, 4 legs, 8 screws and 8 nuts. Attach the legs to the storage tray using the screws and nuts, then screw the top plate onto the legs. Press the pads under the legs.

Do I need to put water in the drip tray?

Yes, fill the tray up to the Max mark (approximately 1.3 liters of water). This prevents grease from burning and makes cleaning easier. Never use the grill without water in the tray.

Can I use the grill without the stand?

Yes, the grill can be placed directly on a flat, heat-resistant surface. Make sure the surface is not damaged by heat.

What is the preheating time?

Allow about 15 minutes for the grill to reach the set temperature. The indicator light turns off when the temperature is reached.

How to clean the cooking grid?

The grid and drip tray are dishwasher safe. The splash guard should be cleaned with warm soapy water. Dry the grid contacts thoroughly before next use.

Can I use metal utensils on the non-stick surface?

No, only use wooden or heat-resistant plastic utensils to avoid damaging the non-stick coating. Knives, forks or metal tongs should not be used.

Can the grill be used in the rain?

No, the grill must not be exposed to moisture. Use it only indoors or in a covered outdoor area. Never use it in rain or a humid environment.

What if the indicator light does not turn off?

If the thermostat is set to 'M', the light may remain on depending on the ambient temperature. The grill is ready after about 15 minutes. If the problem persists, check the socket and thermostat.

What foods can I grill?

The grill is suitable for all types of food: meat (beef, pork, poultry), fish, vegetables, skewers. For minced steaks, limit thickness to 2 cm and turn every 6 minutes (about 24 minutes total).

How to maintain the thermostat?

Always unplug the thermostat before cleaning. Wipe it with a slightly damp cloth and dry it thoroughly, especially the contacts. Never immerse it in water.

4. Insert screws through the holes and secure them with the nuts.

Taking it into use

Before taking the table grill into use for the first time clean it as described in the chapter "Cleaning and care".

Usage / grilling may only take place with the catchment pan 4 intended for the purpose.

The voltage of the power source must tally with the details given on the rating plate of the appliance.

Handling the grill

A good and even heat distribution is assured by the integrated heating element 6 under the grill 1.

Cleaning is made easier by the non-stick coating, which prevents the adhesion of grillables.

• Place the assembled stand on a level surface. Bear in mind that there needs to be a mains power socket in the close vicinity.

• Fill the catchment pan ④ up to the max. marking with water (ca. 1.3 ltrs). You can thus prevent the burning-on of fats falling from the grillables and make the subsequent cleaning of the appliance easier.

• Install the splatter protection shield ② on one side (the later rear side) of the grill bars ① should you be grilling greasy grillables. Additionally, it serves well as a windbreak. Insert the three tenons of the splatter protection shield ② into the holes provided on one side of the grill bars ①. To do this, the splatter protection shield ② must be lightly flexed.
• Place the grill bars ① on the catchment pan ④, such that they are firmly seated.
• Place the grill on the stand. The 4 mounting pegs on the top plate of the stand must encroach into the depressions on the underside of the grill. The grill must sit firmly on the stand.

1 Notice

You can also use the grill without the stand:

Place the grill on an absolutely level and even surface. The surface must be insensitive to heat.

Otherwise, it could cause damage to the surface.

• Check to ensure that the grill bars ① are correctly placed onto the catchment pan ④ (see Fig. ①).
• Insert the power cable with thermostat ⑧ into the appliance such that the control lamp ⑦ is facing upwards. Then insert the plug into a mains power socket.
• Adjust the thermostat ⑧ to the desired temperature setting. The grill starts to warm up and the indicator lamp ⑦ glows.
• As soon as the indicator lamp ① goes out the grill has reached the adjusted temperature and is ready for use.

i Notice

Subject to the ambient temperature, it can happen that the control lamp ① does not go out with the thermostat setting "M".

After a warm-up phase of approx. 15 minutes the grill is ready for use.

Risk of injuries

When the grill has warmed up, take hold of it ONLY with the heat-insulated handles ⑤.

Thermostat adjustments

Level 0

Grill switched off

Level 0-1

Grill switched on; low temperature

Level 1-3

Grill switched on; medium temperature (e.g. vegetables)

Level 3-M (Max)

switched on; high temperature (e.g. meats)

Some tips

• Tender meat is best suited for grilling.
• Pieces of meat marinated overnight, from for example the shoulder or neck, will be more tender.
• Avoid cutting grillables on the grilling area.
  Always use grilling tongs and not forks for turning the grillables. This will ensure it stays succulent on the inside and does not dry out.
• Due to its longer grilling time, avoid selecting thick-cut grillables.
• When cooking beef burgers/ meatballs on the grill, ensure that they are not thicker than 2~cm . We recommend that you grill the beef burgers/ meatballs for about 24 minutes at level 3: Turn the beef burgers/ meatballs every 6 minutes so that each side is cooked twice.

i Notice

The times given may vary, depending on the composition of the grillables and personal taste!

Cleaning and care

Attention!

Before starting to clean it, remove the plug from the power source and the thermostat 8 from the appliance. Risk of electrical shock!

Allow the appliance to cool down completely before cleaning it! Risk of Burns!

Attention!

Take steps to ensure that neither the power cable nor the plug come into contact with water or other fluids. Wipe the themostat ⑧ with a lightly moistened cloth. Dry everything well, especially the plug contacts, before the next usage. If you do not, there is the risk of receiving an electric shock!

• Remove coarse soiling with a moistened cloth.
• To protect the non-stick coating, do not use metallic tools such as knives, forks etc. Should the non-stick coating become damaged, discontinue use of the appliance.
• Only the grill bars ① and the catchment pan ④ are suitable for cleaning in a dishwasher. Clean the spatter protection shield ② in hot soapy water, then dry it off well afterwards. Clean the stand with a moist cloth.
• The plug contacts on the grill bars ① must be scrupulously dried after cleaning.
• The inside of the appliance must be completely dry before it is taken back into use.
