Frequently Asked Questions - BQ2817 Brixton

How to clean the grill plate after use?

Let the appliance cool down completely, then remove the grill plate and grease tray. Wash them with hot water using a damp cloth or in the dishwasher. Do not use metal pads or abrasives to avoid damaging the non-stick coating.

Can I use charcoal or wood in this barbecue?

No, this barbecue is exclusively electric. Never use charcoal, wood, or any other solid or liquid fuel, as it could damage the appliance and be dangerous.

How to adjust the cooking temperature?

The adjustable thermostat is on the removable cord. Turn it to the desired position (1 to 5). The indicator light goes off when the temperature is reached. Allow about 10 minutes for preheating.

What to do if the grill plate sticks?

If food sticks, rub the plate with a piece of paper towel soaked in oil. This restores the non-stick coating. Avoid using metal utensils.

Can I immerse the appliance in water to clean it?

No, never immerse the thermostat, cord, plug, or base of the appliance in water or any other liquid. Only the grill plate and grease tray can be washed with water or in the dishwasher.

How to fold the trolley for storage?

Press the middle of the support tube with your foot, hold the side table with one hand and gently lower the wheel tube with the other hand. To lock the folded trolley, use the lid loop and the hook strap.

What is the capacity of the grease tray?

The grease tray has a capacity of 0.3 liters. It is advisable to empty it regularly and not let it overflow. For easier cleaning, you can put a little water in it before cooking.

Why is there smoke and smell during first use?

This is normal. Heat the appliance at maximum power for 10 minutes with the lid closed, without food. This burns off manufacturing residues. Air the room.

Can I use an extension cord?

No, use of an extension cord or timer device is prohibited to avoid any risk of overheating or accidental reset of thermal protection.

What to do if the appliance does not heat up?

Check that the thermostat is properly plugged into the appliance's socket and that the wall outlet is working. If the problem persists, contact a qualified approved electrician or after-sales service.

BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE FOR THE FIRST TIME

- Remove all the packaging materials and wash the grill plate, grease tray and hood thoroughly. The grill plate and the grease tray are both dishwasher safe.

- Heat the grill to its maximum setting for about 10 minutes, with the hood closed and without putting any food on it. Residues left from the manufacturing process may cause some smell and smoke when the appliance is used for the first time. This is normal and will disappear after a short time.

OPERATING THE APPLIANCE

• Connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply.
• Set the thermostat to the required temperature level (it usually takes about 3 minutes to heat up).
• The power indicator light will go out as soon as the required temperature has been reached.
• Place the food to be grilled on the grill plate.

COOKING TIMES

The following cooking times are indicative. Different times will be required for different weights and sizes of foods to be grilled, and depend on whether you are grilling with or without the hood.

Food to be grilled Temperature grade setting Cooking time

Steak/beef 5 15-20 mins
Lamb 5 12-18 mins
Chicken drumsticks 5 25-30 mins

TIPS FOR GRILLING

• Your meat will be tendered if you marinade it overnight before cooking (the marinade is always made of oil (to add moistness), vinegar (to tenderize) and a mixture of seasonings).
  • Always use tongs or some form of scoop to turn the grilled food (using a fork to turn the food will dry it out and damage the non-stick coating).
• Turn meat and fish only once during grilling. Turning the food too often will lead to dehydration.
• Never cook meat too long.
• In case the cooked food sticks to the grill plate, rub the plate with a piece of kitchen paper soaked in oil.
