Electromagnetic fields (EMF)

This Philips appliance complies with all standards regarding electromagnetic fields (EMF). If handled properly and according to the instructions in this user manual, the appliance is safe to use based on scientific evidence available today.

Before first use

1 Remove any stickers and wipe the body of the appliance with a damp cloth.
2 Clean the appliance and the plate thoroughly (see chapter 'Cleaning').

Using the appliance

Note: The appliance may produce some smoke when you use it for the first time. This is normal.

1 Slide the drip tray into the base (Fig. 2).
Note: The drip tray can only be slid into the base in one way.
2 Fill the drip tray up to the minimum water level indication (MIN) (Fig. 3).

• The water in the drip tray helps to prevent food particles from getting burnt.
• To make cleaning easier, you can line the drip tray with aluminium foil before you fill it with water.
• When you line the drip tray, make sure the foil does not hang over the sides of the tray, as this prevents proper air circulation.

3 Place the grilling plate into the slots in the base (Fig. 4).

Note: The grilling plate only fits in the base in one way.

4 Insert the thermostat unit into the thermostat unit socket in the side of the appliance (Fig. 5).
5 Turn the temperature control to the position appropriate for the ingredients to be grilled (see section ‘Grilling times’ in this chapter).

The heating-up light goes on.

6 Place the ingredients on the grilling plate when the heating-up light goes out.

Be careful: the grilling plate is hot!

During the grilling process, the heating-up light comes on and goes out from time to time. This indicates that the heating element is switched on and off to maintain the correct temperature.
7 Turn the food from time to time.
8 When the food is done, remove it from the grilling plate.

Do not use metal, sharp or abrasive kitchen utensils.

ENGLISH8

9 For optimal results, remove excess oil from the grilling plate with a piece of kitchen paper. Loosen any caked food or grease carefully and remove it from the plate before you grill the next batch of food.

10 To continue grilling, place the next batch of food on the grilling plate when the heating-up light goes out.

Grilling times

In the table at the end of this booklet you find some types of food you can cook on this table grill. The table shows which temperature to select and how long the food has to be grilled. The time required to heat up the appliance has not been included in the grilling times indicated in the table. The grilling time and temperature depend on the type of food that you prepare (e.g. meat), its thickness and its temperature and also on your own taste. You can also refer to the indications on the thermostat unit.

Tips

• You can also use the table grill as a thermostatically controlled hotplate that automatically keeps your dishes at the required temperature. Cover the ribbed plate with aluminium foil with the shiny side facing upwards. Then set the temperature control to position 2 or 3.
• Tender pieces of meat are best suited for grilling.
• Pieces of meat such as steaks or spare rib chops become more tender if marinated overnight.
• Turn the food from time to time to ensure that it remains juicy inside and does not dry out. Do not use any metal tools like forks or grill tongs as they damage the non-stick coating of the grilling plate.
• Do not turn the grilled food too frequently. When the items are brown on both sides, grill them at a lower temperature to ensure they do not dry out and are cooked more evenly.
• If you want to defrost frozen food, wrap the frozen food in aluminium foil and set the temperature control to position 1 or 2. Turn the food from time to time. The defrosting time depends on the weight of the food.
• When you prepare satay, chicken, pork or veal, first sear the meat at a high temperature (position 5). If necessary, you can then set the temperature control one position lower and grill the food until it is done.
• When you make satay or kebab, soak bamboo or wooden skewers in water to prevent them from getting scorched during grilling. Do not use metal skewers.
• Sausages tend to burst when they are being grilled. To prevent this, punch a few holes in them with a fork.
• Fresh meat gives better grilling results than frozen or defrosted meat. Do not put salt on the meat until after you have grilled it. This helps to keep the meat juicy. For the best result, make sure the pieces of meat you prepare are not too thick (approx. 1.5cm).

This table grill is not suitable for grilling breadcrumb food.

Cleaning

Never use abrasive cleaning agents and materials, as this damages the non-stick coating of the plate.

1 Set the temperature control to the 'OFF' position.
2 Unplug the appliance and let it cool down.
3 Pull the thermostat unit out of the appliance (Fig. 6).
4 Wipe the thermostat unit with a damp cloth.

Do not immerse the thermostat unit with mains cord in water or any other liquid.

5 Remove excess oil from the grilling plate with a piece of kitchen paper before you remove the grilling plate for cleaning.
6 Lift the grilling plate from the base by its handgrips (Fig. 7).
Note: If the thermostat unit is still inserted into the appliance, you cannot remove the grilling plate.
7 Soak the grilling plate in hot water with some washing-up liquid for five minutes or drizzle some lemon juice onto the grilling plate. This loosens any caked food or grease.
8 Slide the drip tray out of the base (Fig. 8).
Note: The drip tray can only be slid out of the base in one way.
9 Clean the base and the drip tray with a damp cloth.
10 Clean the grilling plate with a soft cloth or sponge in hot water with some washing-up liquid or in the dishwasher.
11 Dry the grilling plate and drip tray.

The inside of the thermostat unit socket must be completely dry before you reinsert the thermostat unit into it. To dry the socket, wipe the inside with a dry cloth. If necessary, shake out excess water first.

12 Reassemble the appliance.

Storage

1 Leave the thermostat unit in the grill. Wind the cord and fix it with the cord strap (Fig. 9).
2 Store the grill in upright position on a dry and level surface (Fig. 10).

Note: Make sure that the stoppers are at the bottom, so that the drip tray cannot fall out of the appliance.

Environment

- Do not throw away the appliance with the normal household waste at the end of its life, but hand it in at an official collection point for recycling. By doing this, you help to preserve the environment (Fig. 11).
