Frequently Asked Questions - 07760 Gourmetmaxx

How to use the Gourmetmaxx 07760 grill plate for the first time?

Before first use, remove all packaging. Clean the plate with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Heat the appliance empty for a few minutes to remove manufacturing residues. A slight smoke or odor is normal.

What utensils to use on the non-stick plate?

Use heat-resistant wooden or plastic utensils. Avoid metal or sharp objects that could damage the non-stick coating.

Why does the indicator light flash during use?

The indicator light flashes while the appliance is heating. It turns off when the set temperature is reached. This indicates the plate is ready for use.

What to do if the appliance does not turn on?

Check that the thermostat is properly inserted into the connector, that the power plug is correctly plugged in, and that the socket works. Check the circuit fuse. If the problem persists, contact customer service.

How to clean the grill plate after use?

Unplug and let cool completely. Disassemble the appliance, empty the grease collector. Clean the plate with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Never immerse the plate or thermostat in water. Do not use abrasive cleaners or rough sponges.

Can I use the grill plate without the grease collector?

No, the grease collector is essential to collect cooking fats. Never use the appliance without this collector, as this poses a fire hazard or risk of property damage.

Which temperature to choose for grilling meat?

For quick cooking and nice browning, set the thermostat to level 4 (185 °C) or level 5 (200 °C). For more delicate foods, use a lower temperature (level 2 or 3).

How to prevent food from sticking to the plate?

Although the plate is non-stick, it is recommended to lightly grease it before first use. Do not use cooking spray which can damage the coating. Use a brush with a little oil.

The appliance emits an unpleasant odor during first use, is this normal?

Yes, this is normal. Manufacturing residues may produce a slight odor or smoke during the first heating. This disappears after several uses.

Where to store the grill plate after use?

Store the appliance in a dry, clean place, away from frost and direct sunlight. Ensure it is out of reach of children and pets. Do not wrap the cable around the appliance.

Before first use

1. Remove all packaging material and any protective film used to secure it during transport. Never remove the type plate or any warnings.

2. The device may have production residues stuck to it. To avoid health problems, clean the device before first use:

3. Wipe the device with a clean, damp cloth.

4. Wipe the grill plate with a soft, damp cloth/sponge and, if necessary, a small amount of detergent. Dry thoroughly.

5. Before using for the first time, we recommend heating the device once for a few minutes to remove any production residues from the grill plate. Follow the instructions in the chapters "Setting up the device" and "Using".

During initial startup, production-related additives (e.g. grease) can lead to slight smoke and/or odour development. This is normal and not a defect of the device.

1. Clean the device again (see the "Cleaning and storage" chapter).

Setting up the device

• Do not put the device under kitchen cabinets or similar. These may be damaged due to rising steam!
  The device may only be operated in a horizontal position, never on its side or standing upright.
  The surfaces of furniture may contain components that can damage and soften the feet of the device. If necessary, place a suitable base under the feet.

• Place the device with a free space to the sides (at least 20~cm ) and above (at least 30~cm ) on a flat, firm, heat-resistant surface that is not sensitive to grease splashes.

1. Insert the drip tray (2) into the frame (3).

1. Insert the grill plate (8) into the frame. Make sure that the underside of the thermostat socket (7) is placed on the thermostat holder (6). Check the tightness of the grill plate.

1. Insert the thermostat (4) into the thermostat socket.

To disassemble the device, carry out the same steps in reverse order.

Usage

Beware of burns! Do not place any metal objects on or in the device. These can get very hot.
- Never use the device without the drip tray. Ensure that it is correctly inserted (see "Assembly") before the device is put into operation.

Although the grill plate has a non-stick coating, we recommend gently greasing it before using it for the first time. Do not use cooking spray, as this can damage the non-stick coating!

Line the drip tray (2) with aluminium foil before use to make subsequent cleaning easier.

1. Prepare the food as desired. A few recipesuggestions can be found later on in this guide.

1. Turn the thermostat knob (10) to 0.
2. Connect the plug to an easily accessible socket.
3. Set the desired temperature level with the thermostat knob: Turn the temperature level number to the warning light (9). There are 5 temperature levels:

Level 1	2	3	4	5
Temp. approx.	100°C	120°C	170°C	185°C

1. Allow the device to heat up. During heating, the warning light comes on.
2. If the warning light has gone out, place the food to be grilled on the grill plate (8).
3. After a while, turn the food over. When it has been sufficiently cooked and has reached the desired colour, remove from the grill plate.
4. Switch off the device after use (set the thermostat knob to position 0) and remove the mains plug from the socket.

Cleaning and storage

The device and the grill plate are not dishwasher safe!
- Do not use corrosive or abrasive cleaners, cleansing sprays or rough sponges or knives for cleaning. These can damage the surface.

1. Make sure that the device is completely cooled and disconnected from the power supply!
2. Disassemble the cooled device (see "Assembly"). Empty the drip tray (2).
3. Clean the grill plate (8) with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Make sure that no water gets into the thermostat socket (7)!
4. If necessary, wipe the thermostat (4) with a soft, damp cloth.
5. Clean the drip tray and frame (3) with warm water and some detergent if necessary.
6. Dry all parts thoroughly before reassembling and storing.
7. Check the connecting cable regularly for damage. Never wrap it tightly around the device (risk of cable breakage).
