OPERATION

Before using your appliance for the first time, take away the packaging materials and clean the pans and the grilling surface and pancake surface thoroughly with a damp cloth.
- Hold the stone under running water (you can use a sponge to improve the cleaning). Never use abrasive or cleaning products. Rinse thoroughly and let dry.
- Before each use, oil the non-stick coated plate.
- Place the polished side of the stone to the top. Make sure the stone and the grill-plate or pancake plate are correctly placed on the base.
Oil the polished surface of the stone with a kitchen paper or with a small brush coated with heat-resistant table oil (olive or groundnut oil). Let the oil penetrate the stone and then take away the superfluous oil.
- When it is first switched on, the heating element may smell and emit some smoke. This is normal; the grease that may have adhered to the element during manufacture is burning off. We therefore recommend that you heat up the appliance for about 10 minutes without any food (ventilate the room during this period). This phenomenon will no more occur in the future.
Always preheat the grill-plate or pancake plate on the highest level during more or less 10 minutes and the stone during more or less 25 minutes before using the appliance.
In order to prevent grease stains on your table cloth, don't forget to put another, easy-washing cloth under your appliance.
- To switch on your appliance, after having read and observed all important safeguards, put the plug in an earthed power outlet and put the thermostat knob in the desired position. The pilot light will come on, indicating that the appliance is heating. When the desired position is reached, the pilot light will go out. During use, this pilot light will come on and off regularly. This simply means that the thermostat is regulating the desired temperature.

Hint: When your appliance is warming up and the raclette pans are clean, you can put them on the appliance to warm them up but never leave raclette pans that have already been used in the appliance, as the food residues might burn.

IMPORTANT REMARKS

The stone is a natural product. Small fissures can appear during the use. It is a normal phenomenon not covered by the guarantee.
- If the stone has been kept in a damp environment, heat it up slowly (2 to 3 hours) in an oven at 100^ or let it two days at ambient temperature.
- Avoid shocks when you move the stone. Also avoid thermal shocks.
- Never place too large, too cold or frozen food on a hot stone.
- Never sprinkle a hot stone with cold water, it could crack.
To avoid burns or fissures on the stone, never move a still hot stone.
- Only place food on the stone. Never place heavy objects on it.
If you use soured meat, you have to know that the spices will penetrate the stone. This will decolourise it and then give a taste to the grilled meat.

STONE GRILL AND GRILL PLATE

• Put the raclette-grill in the middle of the table.

• Before grilling, sprinkle the stone with salt.
  Use only wooden or plastic utensils in order not to damage the coating.

• When heating (above all in the presence of oil), the stone can give off a smell and a light smoke. This phenomenon disappears after a couple of minutes. The stone can also lose its colour and become darker. This decolouration does not have any influence on the functioning of the appliance.

• Wait until the stone and the grill are hot before placing foodstuffs on them. Control the grilling of the foodstuffs and turn them over regularly with a wooden spatula. Do not pick the meat, it could lose its juice and its taste. Small pieces of meat and fish will be ready more quickly than large pieces and will be better grilled. So it is recommended to first cut the meat or fish into small pieces of 1 to 2 cm.
• The stone stocks naturally the heat. So you can disconnect the appliance 10 minutes before the end of the grilling.
  It is recommended to remove the rests of food from the stone during the grilling (with a wooden spatula). Once the food is dry, it becomes more difficult to remove it.
  Cut the meat into small pieces. You thus reduce the cooking time. Chop the crude meat and serve it on a plate or a wooden board. Your guests can then choose the quantity of meat they wish and grill it on the grill plate.
• You can grill toasts in the raclette pans, cook fruit through, fry eggs or potatoes and many other things.
  You may serve the grilled meat with different sauces, salad...

PANCAKE PLATE

Prepare pancake dough using your usual recipe.
Once you have made your pancake dough, preheat your appliance on the medium heating position.
- When the appliance reaches the right temperature, and before you begin baking your pancakes, pour a small quantity of oil on the pancake spaces to prevent your pancakes from burning or sticking to the plate. If necessary, repeat this operation while in use.
Pour the amount of dough that corresponds to the circles on the plate.
- Warning! Do not pour too much dough because it might spill over the plate.
- Turn over the pancakes with a plastic or wooden spatula. Do not use metallic utensils that could damage the plate.
- According to your taste, you can garnish your pancakes with salty or sweet ingredients, warm or cold ones... Let the choice be yours.
If necessary, you can adapt (increase or decrease) the temperature of the appliance during use.
Once your pancakes are ready, turn the thermostat to "MIN" and unplug the appliance.

RACLETTE

• Raclette is a typical Swiss dish. You can obtain a good raclette by using the original raclette cheese. Take about 150-250 grams for each person. Cut the cheese into slices (more or less 2 mm thick).
  Prepare potatoes in their skin, which you will put into a covered bowl or on the grill, in order to keep them warm.
• Put the raclette-grill in the middle of the table.
• Put the cheese into the raclette pans and place them under the heating tube. The cheese will melt after 3 to 4 minutes.
• As soon as the cheese has melted and taken a brownish-golden colour, you can serve it as it is on the plate or spread it out on the potatoes in their skin. Add some freshly ground black pepper.
• Raclette is served with raw ham or "Bündner" meat, little onions and pickles, as well as a dry wine.

After use, turn the thermostat knob to "MIN" and unplug the appliance.

CARE & CLEANING

Before cleaning, unplug and wait for the appliance to cool down.

Cleaning of the stone grill, grill plate and pancake plate

- Never pour cold water on the hot stone, you could damage the appliance and cause splashes of boiling water.
- Clean the grill plate and pancake plate with soapy water.
- Never clean the grill plate and pancake plate and the pans with abrasive products, this could damage the coating.
Clean the stone only with hot water and possibly with a soft sponge.
- Never use cleaning products or abrasive products because those change the natural properties of the stone.
- Do not scratch the stone with a sharp object in order not to damage the surface.
