• Warning: Danger of electric shock! Protect the thermostatic plug against wetness! Never put it into the dishwas- her! Never put it into water!

• Do not use metallic tools such as knives or forks, etc., for cleaning. The non-stick coating can be damaged as a result!13 The unit is only intended to be used for the grilling and frying of food, primarily meat, fish and vegetables. No liability is accepted for any damage resulting from use for other purposes, faulty operation or amateur repairs. Guarantee services are also excluded in such cases. The appliance is not intended for cate- ring purposes!

WITH PURPOSE Thoroughly clean the cooking plate (a/e) and the tray (f) before they are used for the first time. The grilling and frying plates can be cleaned in a dishwashing machine (1). Danger of electric shock! Never put the thermostatic plug (c) with the mains cable into the dishwashing machine.

5. OPERATING THE APPLIANCE

FORTHE FIRST TIME (Fig. 1) Preparing the unit The unit can be used in two ways. The grilling plate (e) with the grooved sur- face is suitable for the typical grilling of steaks, cutlets or the like. The frying plate (a) with the smooth surface is used to fry shellfish, eggs, sliced vegeta- bles or the like.

• Pull out the tray from the unit (2).

• Select the relevant plate for the cooking process and turn it to face upwards (3).

• Push the tray below the plate into the slot provided for it (4). Note:Allow enough space between the wall and the unit to allow air to circulate better. Danger of burns due to hot unit parts or hot fat! Only touch the unit at the special handles. Before turning the unit over, first pull the tray out of the unit (2).

Operation (Fig. 2-9) Switching on the unit

• Plug the thermostatic plug (c) into the unit socket until it clicks. Connect the unit to the mains (5).

• Set the temperature regulator to the desired temperature level (6). The heater indicator light stays on for as long as the heater is in operation. Note: As a result of the production process, a small amount of smoke may be given off the first time the unit is used. The heating-up time is around 4-6 minutes, depending on the temperature level that was set. Once the desired temperature has been reached, the heating indicator light goes out. Then the grilling plate or frying plate can be filled with food for cooking (7). Note: The heating indicator light comes on in each heating-up phase until the tempera- ture has been reached. Temperature regulator The temperature regulator (d) is used to vary the temperature of the cooking plate. If you wish to use the highest temperature set the temperature to “MAX” and allow the heating indicator light to come on and go out several times. This produces a more even temperature for the cooking plate. Turning over the unit

• Turn the temperature regulator (d) to “MIN” and pull out the thermostatic plug (see also “Putting the unit away“).

• Thoroughly clean the last plate that was used (see “Cleaning and care“).

• Pull the tray out (2).

• Hold the unit by the handles provided when turning it over (3).

• Connect the unit again to the mains. Putting the unit away

• Turn the temperature regulator (d) to “MIN“ and pull out the mains plug.14 Whole fish approx. 8-10 minutes Fish fillets approx. 5-7 minutes Shrimps approx. 3-6 minutes Chicken legs approx. 25-30 minutes Chicken wings approx. 10-15 minutes Steak approx. 10-15 minutes Cutlets approx. 12-15 minutes Kebab / Skewered meat approx. 10-12 minutes Sausages approx. 12-15 minutes Bacon approx. 4-6 minutes The times are recommended once only. The cooking times primarily depend on the fol- lowing factors:

• The setting of the temperature regulator: A low temperature setting should be selec- ted to keep the grilled food warm or to grill delicate items such as fish. Pork and beef should be cooked at the maximum tempera- ture setting.

• The type and thickness of the food being cooked.

• The temperature of the food being cooked: The food to be cooked should always be at room temperature. Never put frozen food directly onto the cooking plate, it could become tough.

• Pull out the thermostatic plug from the unit (8).

• Allow the unit to cool down. Never transport the unit when it is hot. The unit can be stored to save space (9).

• Do not prick holes into the meat if you can possibly avoid it. Using forks to turn the meat makes it dry, so we recom- mend the use of wooden tongs.

• Fish and meat should be turned only once if possible; repeated turning is unnecessary and dries out the food being cooked.

• In order to turn over fish, use a large wooden spatula so that you can lift up the entire piece of fish when turning it over. If the food being cooked sticks to the grill- ing plate, wipe down the cooking plate from time to time with a paper towel dipped in oil. Tender slices of meat are generally more suitable for grilling. Somewhat tougher meat will become more tender if it has been marinated overnight.

• A marinade is always made of oil (in order to add moisture), vinegar (to make it softer) and a mixture of herbs.

• Never cook meat too long. Even pork is better if it is still pink and juicy.

• Danger of electric shock! Switch off the unit before it is to be cleaned, pull out the plug and pull out the thermostatic plug from the cooking plate.

• Danger of burns! It is essential to let the unit cool down.

• Do not use metallic cutlery such as knives or forks, etc., for cleaning. The non-stick coating can be damaged as a result.

• Pull out the tray from the unit (2).

• Use only the wooden spatula (g) provi- ded to remove any rest particles from the cooking plates (10/11).

• The cooking plate can be put into the dishwashing machine or washed by hand, and by using a plastic washing-up brush and hot water. The tray should be cleaned by hand. Danger of electric shock! Never put the thermostatic plug (c) with the mains cable into the dishwashing machine. The appliance inlet shall be dried before re-use.

At the end of its working life, the product must not be disposed of as urban waste. It must be taken to a special local authority differentiated waste collection centre or to a dealer providing this service. Disposing of a household appliance separately avoids possible negative consequences for the environment and health deriving from inappropriate disposal and enables the constituent materials to be recovered to obtain significant savings in energy and resources. To remind you that you must collaborate with a selective collection scheme, the symbol shown appears on the product warning you not to dispose of it in traditional refuse containers. For further information, contact your local authority or the shop where you bought the product.16
