Notes for Use

CAUTION: Avoid Damaging the Anti-Stick Coated Ling Surfaces!

• Only use spatulas or turners made of wood or Teflon.
• Do not work with sharp objects (e.g. knife, fork) on the grill surface.

• Do not use any utensils made of plastic. They can melt.

• The upper grill plate is equipped with a compensating joint. This enables optimum contact between the upper grill plate and the food to be grilled.

• The upper grill plate can also be opened by 180°. This gives you double the grilling surface and you can use the appliance as a table grill.
• The non-stick coated grill surfaces allow grease-free preparation of the food.
• If you want to use oil, a highly heatable oil such as sunflower oil is suitable. Do not use olive oil or butter, as these types of fat produce smoke even at low temperatures.

Switching On/Off

• Always set the temperature control knob to the MIN position before switching the appliance on or off.
• Switch the appliance on and off with the ON/OFF switch. The power indicator light POWER indicates that the appliance is in operation.

Electrical Connection

Connected Load

The appliance has a total power rating of 2000 W. With this connected load, we recommend a separate supply line with a 16 A household circuit breaker.

CAUTION: Overload!

Do not use extension cords or multiple sockets as this appliance is too high-powered.

Connection

• Before inserting the mains plug into the socket, check that the mains voltage you intend to use matches that of the appliance. You will find the information on the type plate.
• Only connect the appliance to a properly installed protective contact socket.

Before Using the Appliance for the First Time

1. Clean the grill plates as described under "Cleaning". Reinsert the grill plates.
2. Close the contact grill. Insert the grease drip tray at the back of the grill.
3. Operate the appliance with the grill plates closed for approx. 10 minutes without grilling food (see "Operation"). To do this, turn the temperature control knob to the MAX position.

NOTE:

Slight smoke development is normal. Make sure there is sufficient ventilation.

1. Switch off the appliance and disconnect the mains plug from the socket.
2. Let the appliance cool down completely.
3. Wipe the grill surfaces with a damp cloth.

Now your appliance is ready for operation.

Operation

Before grilling, make your choice whether to operate with the contact grill closed or with the table grill open.

Use as a Contact Grill

1. Switch on the appliance with the ON/OFF switch. Both control lamps light up.
2. Set the temperature control knob to the MAX position. The temperature control light READY goes out. The appliance heats up.

NOTE:

• The heating time is approx. 10 minutes.

NOTE:

- If the READY indicator light is on, the set temperature has been reached. During operation it goes off and on again. This is normal and indicates that the temperature is thermostatically controlled and maintained.

1. Open the appliance with the handle. Place the upper grill plate vertically.
2. Place the food on the lower grill plate.
3. Close the upper grill plate slowly. The food does not need to be turned.

6.

WARNING: Danger of Scalding!

Hot steam escapes!

When the food has reached the desired cooking state, open the appliance by the handle.

1. Remove the finished food with a spatula or turner made of wood or Teflon.

Use as a Table Grill

1. Press the PUSH HERE button while opening the upper grill plate on the handle.
2. Operate the appliance as previously described (excluding points 3, 5 and 6).
3. Prepare your food as you would on any other grill. Turn the food over if necessary.

Grill Time

The grilling time depends on the quality and thickness of the food. Two examples are given here for guidance:

Pork chop MAX	approx. 6 minutes
Use as a Table Grill

NOTE:

You can tell when the food is cooked by the core temperature. We recommend using a roast thermometer. This allows you to check the core temperature of the meat. This way you do not have to cut the food open.
