Residual heat indicator

The Teppan Yaki has a residual heat indicator.

If an H appears in the display, the Teppan Yaki is still hot. The indicator goes out when the Teppan Yaki has cooled down sufficiently.

Before using for the first time

In this section, you can find out what you must do before using your Teppan Yaki to prepare food for the first time. Read the Safety information section beforehand.

Cleaning

Clean the Teppan Yaki thoroughly with lukewarm soapy water before first use.

Heating the Teppan Yaki

To get rid of the new cooker smell, heat up the empty Teppan Yaki. 30 minutes at 240^ is ideal.

Setting the Teppan Yaki

In this section, you can find out how to set the Teppan Yaki. The table shows temperatures and cooking times for various meals.

Setting the temperature

Set the temperature of the Teppan Yaki with the switch.

Once the set temperature is reached, the heating indicator goes out. Now you can place the food on the Teppan Yaki.

Note: The Teppan Yaki regulates the heat level by switching on and off. Even at maximum power, the heating can switch on and off.

Keep warm setting

Use the switch to select the keep warm setting.

Do not try to keep too much food warm at once. All food to be kept warm should be in contact with the grilling surface, as otherwise it will cool down. Do not keep food warm for too long as it will dry out.

Cleaning level

In cleaning level, the appliances heats up to 40^ . You can leave dirt to soak by adding some water and washing-up liquid to the grilling surface (max. 1 hour). After dissolving the dirt, you can begin cleaning.

Switching off the rear heating zone

When preparing small quantities, you can choose to use only the front zone. You can use the rear zone to keep the food warm.

Turn the switch to the right to the symbol and then back to the desired temperature. The display lights up. The rear heating zone is switched off.

Settings table

The details given in the tables are guidelines and apply to a preheated appliance. The values may vary depending on the type and amount of food to be grilled.

Tips and tricks

• When the heating up light goes off, place the food on the appliance. This also applies when raising the temperature to fry a second item which requires a higher setting.
  Press the pieces of meat, poultry or fish flat onto the frying surface using the spatula. Only turn the meat, when it comes away from the surface easily, in order to protect the structure of the meat. Damaging the structure can cause juices to escape and results in the meat drying out.

• Keep the pieces of meat, poultry or fish apart so that they do not draw any liquid.

• Avoid pricking or cutting meat before or during frying, in order to retain meat juices.

• Do not salt the food before frying, to prevent liquid and soluble nutrients from escaping.
  Turn fish fillets in flour before frying. The fish will be easier to turn.
  Turn fish fillets only once if possible. Place fish onto the appliance with the skin facing downward.
  Use oil and fat that is suitable for frying, for example plant oil or concentrated butter.

   2.Push 4 - 5 ice cubes over the hot grilling surface using the spatula.
   3.Remove dissolved dirt with the spatula.
2. Switch the appliance on again. Do not add food until the appliance has reached the set temperature again.

Appliance part/surface	Recommended cleaning
