PROTECTION OF THE ENVIRONMENT - DIRECTIVE 2002/96/EC

In order to preserve our environment and protect our health, very precise rules have to be observed with regard to the disposal of electric appliances, for which the cooperation of each and every one of us - supplier and customer - is

needed. For this reason, as indicated by the symbol on the rating label, your appliance should not be disposed of in a public or private dustbin for household waste.

To dispose of your appliance, you can bring it back to the store where you bought it or you can take it to a collection point for the sorting of domestic waste, so that it can be recycled and reused for other applications.

BEFORE USE

Please read the instruction manual carefully and keep it for future consultation.

• Always fully unwind the connection cable.
• Connect the plug of the connection cable to an earthed wall socket of 10/16 A.

• If an extension cord is needed, use one with earth wire and with a wire cross-section of at least 0.75 ~mm^2 .
  • Take all necessary precautions to prevent the connection cable or extension cord from being tripped over.

• We recommend connecting the appliance to an installation that is equipped with a ground fault circuit interrupter with a rated fault current of maximally 30 mA.

• Unplug the appliance and wait until it has completely cooled down before cleaning it.
• Never immerse the appliance in water.
• For safety reasons we recommend not storing the appliance in a place exposed to the weather or to humidity.
• Do not use the appliance as a heating device.
• Do not leave the appliance plugged in when it is not in use.
• Please avoid all contact with the metallic parts and the glass plates during use as they become hot.
• People (including children) who are not able to use the appliance in a safe way, due to their physical, sensorial or mental capacity or their lack of experience or knowledge, must never use the appliance without supervision or instructions of a responsible person.
• Your appliance must never be switched on through an external timer or any kind of separate remote control system.
• Close supervision is necessary if children are near the appliance in order to avoid that they use it as a toy.

START-UP AND USE

1- Initial operation

- When unpacking the appliance,

please take care that all packing and protective materials and the shield on the glass plate are being removed carefully.

• We recommend rinsing the pans before the first use.
The new appliance may emanate some smoke during the first use.

2- Start-up

• Put the appliance on a level surface.
• Fully unroll the connection cable.
• Plug in the appliance, switch it on with the flip switch, the indicator lamp comes on.
• Preheat for 15 minutes without the pans.
• Put cheese in the raclette pans.
• Put the pans into the appliance and take care that the cheese has not been cut into slices that are too thick in order to avoid contact of the cheese with the resistors.
• When the cheese has melted according to your taste, take the pans out.
  Please note: it is normal that the heating power is not spread evenly over the entire surface of the appliance.
• When you have finished or when you want to take a pause during the meal, you can set the pans aside on the lowest level made of hard glass. When you use the „keep warm function“, it is normal that the cheese will get a bit more solid again. If you prefer the cheese softer, put the pan back on the top level for a few more minutes.

Caution: because of the radiation of the heating resistors, the handle of the pans may become very hot. It is best to take their handle only by its transparent part.

CARE

Always unplug the appliance and wait until it has completely cooled down before cleaning it.

Your appliance is equipped with glass plates and therefore needs special care for its cleaning.

• Glass plates and heating resistor: clean with a sponge, warm water and washing-up liquid.
Caution: tight glass plates
Caution: in order not to scratch the glass, do not use any scrubbing sponge or any metal scraper.
- First clean the upper side of the glass plates, then turn the appliance carefully in order to wipe the underside.
Caution: the heating resistor cannot be taken out in order to clean the glass plates.
- Let the washing-up liquid work for 2-3 minutes. Dry with paper towel before the water has evaporated.
- Dry the heating resistor well.
- Tip: in case of heavy dirtying and for a more effective degreasing, you can use window cleaner.
- Pans: wash with a non-abrasive sponge, warm water and washing-up liquid. Rinse thereafter. Do not use metal scrapers or scouring agents (in order not to damage the non-stick coating).

• Tip: the pans can be soaked or rinsed in the dishwasher.
• Metal pillars and base (according to model): clean only with a soft, damp, non-abrasive sponge and wipe with a dry cloth.

Caution: do not allow any water to touch the electric parts. Never immerse your appliance in water.
