Before using for the first time

In this section, you can find out what you must do before using

your grill to prepare food for the first time. Read the Safety

information section beforehand.

Clean the grill and accessories thoroughly before first use

using lukewarm soapy water.

Heat the empty grill for a few minutes at the highest setting.

This will eliminate the new odour. A slight development of

smoke is normal when the grill is used for the first time.

Grilling with water and lava stones

Fill the grill container with water before each use. The amount

of water depends on whether or not you wish to use lava

stones. The lava stones store the heat of the grill elements and

thus ensure intensive radiation of heat and even distribution of

Filling with water and lava stones

1. Remove the wire rack and fold up both grill elements.

Remove the lava stone container from the appliance.

2. Ensure the drain valve is closed.

3. Fill water into the grill container.

Grilling with lava stones: 1 litre (bottom mark)

Grilling without lava stones: 3.5 litres (top mark)

4. To grill with lava stones: Remove the lava stones from the

packaging and place them in the lava stone container. Insert

the lava stone container in the appliance.

5. Fold down the grill heating element, replace the wire rack.

The grill is ready for operation.17

In this section, you can find out how to set the grill.The table

shows grill settings and cooking times for various meals.

Switching the grill on and off

To switch on: Touch the

# symbol. A signal sounds. The

display above the main switch lights up. The grill is ready to

To switch off: Touch the

# symbol until the display above the

main switch goes out. The grill has been switched off. The

residual heat display remains lit until the grill has cooled down

Note: The grill switches off automatically when the grill setting

remains at 0 for more than approx. 15 seconds.

Set the desired grill setting on the control panel.

Grill setting 1 = lowest output

Grill setting 9 = highest output

linked or not when the appliance is switched on; see Basic

settings. 1. Switch on the grill using the main switch. 2. To select a grill element, touch the ‹ grill settings display

Note: The grill regulates the temperature by switching the grill

element on and off. The grill element may be switched on and

off even at the highest setting.

Pre-heating the grill

Do not place the food to be grilled onto the grill until the pre-

heating time has elapsed. The heating symbol goes out. During

the pre-heating time, the grill heats at full power. Once the pre-

heating time has elapsed, the temperature is reduced by

switching the heating element on and off in order to achieve a

constant temperature for the relevant setting.

The pre-heating time is between 6 and 10 minutes, depending

on the grill setting which has been set.

Note: Do not leave the empty grill to heat up at the highest grill

setting for a prolonged period of time (approx. 6 – 10 minutes).

Heating up for prolonged periods of time may lead to the

appliance shutting down (overheating protection). Switch off the

appliance and allow it to cool down before you switch it back

Topping up the water

If there is too little water in the grill container, the overheating

protection switches the appliance off. Therefore, while grilling,

monitor the water level in the grill container and top it up as

Tips and tricks ■ Always preheat the grill. In this way, due to the intensive heat radiation, a crust can form quickly and prevent the meat

juices from escaping. ■ You can brush or marinate the food with heat-resistant oil (e.g. peanut oil) before grilling. This will improve the flavour.

Ensure that you do not use too much oil/marinade, as this

could cause the food to catch fire and generate thick smoke. ■ Do not salt meat before grilling. Otherwise, soluble nutrients and meat juices could be lost. ■ Place the food directly on the wire rack. Do not use any aluminium foil or grill linings. ■ Only turn the food when it can be easily removed from the wire rack. If meat sticks to the wire rack, the fibres will be

destroyed and the meat juices will escape. ■ Do not prick meat during grilling or the meat juices will escape. ■ Cured meat, such as ham or smoked pork chops, is not suitable for grilling. A harmful compound can be produced. ■ Score chops several times at the bone and in the fat layer so that they do not bend during grilling. ■ We recommend removing the fat layer after grilling rather than before, as otherwise the meat will lose juice and flavour. ■ Poultry pieces will turn out particularly crispy and brown if you baste them towards the end of the grilling time with butter,

salted water or orange juice. ■ After grilling, fruit can be seasoned to taste with honey, maple syrup or lemon juice. ■ Before grilling, you can precook vegetables which take a long time to cook (e.g. corn on the cob). ■ Grill fish fillets skin side up first. Brush the skin with oil so that it does not stick to the wire rack. ■ Serve grilled food hot. Do not keep it warm or it will become tough. ■ Dripping fat can catch fire on the heating elements and can result in brief formation of flames and smoke. To reduce this,

very fatty foods should be grilled over a water bath.

The timer can be used as a kitchen timer. The timer does not

switch the grill on or off.

With the timer, you can set a time up to 99 minutes. You can
