ASSEMBLY AND PREPARATION FOR OPERATION

1. Remove all packaging materials. Keep packaging materials away from children - danger of suffocation!
2. Clean all parts with a damp cloth, as described in the chapter "Cleaning and care".
3. Push the legs (8) through the holes in the tray (7).

5. Push the tubes (6) up into the holes in the tray.
6. Press the insert (5) onto the stand by applying pressure to it.

8. Insert the provided handles (without picture) in the grill housing insert (part no. 5) by pressing them from below in the respective groove, until the clutch engages.

9. A sure transport of the device is guaranteed by the handles.
10. Place the water tray (3) onto the opening in the insert. Please ensure that the two openings on the water tray face upwards on the insert as a recess for the heating element (2).
11. Ensure that the grill table is stable.

Fill the water tray with at least 1300ml of water (max. 2.000ml ). Never operate the grill without first filling the water tray.
