5.3 Operation

Electric lift salamander functions

You have purchased professional equipment which allows you to quickly bake the surface of foodstuffs making them especially crunchy. An adjustable-height heating element utilizing infrared heat is integrated into a casing of stainless steel. Owing to this it is possible to work quickly and efficiently, always getting the best results.

If you have purchased the dual model 151511, dual temperature controls allow you to set different temperatures for the left and right sides of the device as needed, or simply turn one side off.

Removal of the grease tray, along with the stainless steel grill surface, make it easier to place foodstuffs in the device and easier to clean.

Starting the device

• Ensure that the temperature regulator is set to the position marked „OFF”.
• Prior to first use clean the device (see sec. 6.2 "Cleaning")

• The green control lamp, when lit, indicates that the device is warming up.
• When the desired temperature has been reached, the green control light goes out and the heating element automatically switches off. The food preparation process is finished.
• If the temperature falls, reconnect the temperature regulator and the device will warm up again. This process will repeat itself until the device is disconnected from its power source.
