Operation and use

General instructions

The food should be at room temperature since frozen food requires longer to cook and can also dry out.

To achieve the best results, preheat the grill until the required temperature has been reached and the control indicator (1) extinguishes.

Pay attention to the grilling process.

You can use the appliance to cook various different foods such as steaks, sausages or vegetables.

The appliance is particularly suitable for quick low-fat preparation of meals since both sides are grilled simultaneously and the ribbed surface of the grill allows fat to quickly flow into the drip tray.

If you wish to grill different meals at the same time, they must have the same thickness so that contact to the surface of the grill plate remains even.

3 mm and 11 mm rubber stoppers are provided with the appliance. These can be used on the front legs respectively depending the angle of inclination required for grilling e.g., 3 mm to allow the fat to run off easily or 11 mm to prevent bread rolls from slipping off the hot plate.

Using the appliance

Place the drip tray (3) at the front underneath the appliance.

Insert the plug into a mains socket.

Allow the appliance to heat up after switching on. The operating temperature is reached in approx. 6 minutes when the cover is closed.

The temperature has been reached when the control indicator (1) extinguishes.

To warm up bread rolls or toast during grilling, proceed as follows:

Put the bread or bread rolls into the warming compartment (4) and close it the bread rolls may need to be cut into halves).

NOTE

Check the cooked condition of the food periodically.

Cleaning and care

Before beginning any work, pay attention to the safety instructions in the section Safety instructions (page 15)!

The appliance must be cleaned after each use.

Clean the appliance as soon as it has cooled down. Waiting too long makes cleaning unnecessarily difficult.

Leftovers that stick to the grill plates can burn into the coating if not removed correctly.

Wipe the grill plates with a damp cloth or sponge and a little washing-up liquid and then with a damp cloth without washing-up liquid.
