Frequently Asked Questions - KG 2399 SEVERIN

How to manually adjust temperature without automatic program?

What to do if the appliance does not turn on?

Check that the appliance is properly plugged into a working power outlet. If the problem persists, test the outlet with another appliance. If nothing works, contact after-sales service.

How to clean the cooking plates after use?

Unplug the appliance and let it cool. Remove the cooking plates and the fat collection tray. Clean them with warm soapy water and a soft cloth or sponge. Never use metal sponges or abrasive detergents. Dry all parts before reassembling.

Why does smoke come out during first use?

How to remove and insert the cooking plates?

To remove the plates: open the lid fully, then press the release button (upper or lower) and pull the plate forward. To insert: align the locking lugs with the openings and push until it clicks. The lower plate is pushed downwards, the upper plate upwards.
