The automatic temperature controller is a highly sensitive part. Therefore, it is advisable to make sure that it does not fall down, be pushed or be shaken. Only use the automatic temperature controller which has been supplied with the appliance. Never use a different controller. When connecting the automatic temperature controller make sure that it has been plugged in correctly. Do not pull the cable but the plug of the temperature controller. Do not handle with exaggerated force or bend. Always keep the temperature controller and the pin of the holder clean. Turn off and immediately stop using the automatic temperature controller in case it is damaged or overheated. Do not repair by yourself. Take the appliance to the next authorised dealer and have it repaired Before using or removing the automatic temperature controller make sure that the scale is turned off as it may otherwise lead to overheating or failure.

The rating plate with the connection and performance data can be founded on the back of the device.34 14 Operation and Handing This chapter provides you with important notices with regard to operating the device. Observe the following notices to avoid dangers and damages: Warning ► Do not leave the device unsupervised when it is in operation, so that you can intervene quickly in the event of dangers.

Please ensure that the temperature controller is plugged in correctly. Then put the plug in a 230 volt safety-contact power outlet. Please use the temperature adjust scale different concerning the meal you are preparing. The temperature sensor is designed to maintain the temperature. Scale setting at the controller MIN = least temperature level = keep warm function 1-2 = temperature range up to 100°C approx. 3-4 = temperature range up to 200°C approx. 5 = max. temperature range up to 240°C approx. OFF = heating is off Caution: In position “Off” the pan can still be extremely hot over a longer period Heating levels Food type 1 & 2 scrambled eggs , etc. 3 & 4 pancake , etc.

Please wait 5 – 10 minutes after you have switched on the device. If the control light has turned out you can start with the cooking. If the food is cooked completely you can maintain the temperature of the food by turning the temperature controller back to the position „MIN“.35

• During the use of this appliance pops can occur. This is not a malfunction. Due to the thermal expansion of the heater and of the roasting surface of the pan these pops arise.

• Do not lay your hand under the pan; do not lay any inflammable material on the Profi Party Pan.

If the device is not maintained in a clean condition, this will have a detrimental effect on the service life of the device and can also result in a dangerous condition in the device as well as in the growth of fungus and bacteria. ► Switch the device off prior to cleaning it and unplug the plug from the wall power outlet. ► The device can be hot after use. There is a danger of burning! Wait until the appliance has cooled down. Unplug the appliance before removing the temperature controller out of the party pan. ► Caution: Allow the temperature controller to cool down before removing it. After the use of the roasting surface of the pan it can be very hot. ► Clean the device after use as soon as it has cooled down. Extended waiting unnecessarily complicates cleaning and can make it impossible in extreme cases. Excessive accumulations of dirt can even damage the device under certain circumstances.36 Attention ► If dampness penetrates into the device, this can damage the electronic components. Please ensure that no liquid can enter the interior of the device through the ventilation slots. ► Do not immerse the appliance in water or other liquids, and do not put it in the dishwasher. ► Do not use any aggressive or abrasive cleaning agents or solvents. ► Do not scrape off stubborn dirt with hard items. ► Do not use a sharp metal pusher ► Do not cut the food with a knife on the surface. ► Do not put the automatic temperature controller on the roasting surface of the pan. It must not come into contact with the roasting surface of the pan. ► No cleansing agents (except liquid soap), nylon brushes or metallic brushes must be used as the surface of the roasting surface of the pan could be damaged. ► Always clean the plate after having used it with a damp cloth as food leftovers or oil sticked to the surface could adhere or bind.

After the use the Profi Party Pan has to be cleaned as follows: name method note Roasting surface of the pan Remove residues from cooking, after the preparation by using a soft cloth or a tissue while the roasting surface of the pan is still warm. Do not use any cleansing agents (except liquid soap), nylon brushes or metallic brushes. The roasting surface of the pan can be damaged.

Do not submerge the roasting surface of the pan in water or do not wash it with water while the plate is still hot (risk of accident and risk of injury)

Excessive dirt After cooling down cover the holder to avoid that water enters. After that clean the roasting surface of the pan with a soft cloth and a little dish liquid. Lid Clean it with a soft sponge and with a little dish liquid. Do not use thinner, fuel, cleansing agents (except dish liquid) or chemically treated cloths. The surface will be damaged. Automatic temperature controller Clean it with a soft tissue or a dry, soft cloth In order to prevent an electric shock or a fire do not clean the construction set of the automatic temperature controller.37 16 Disposal of the Old Device Old electric and electronic devices frequently still contain valuable materials.
