GB 5 / SOME HINTS

Before any utilization, preheat for 5 minutes.

Do not place the food on the grilling surface until the heating-up indicator has gone off.

When placing the food on the grilling surface, bear in mind that the grill zone is hotter in the centre than at the edge. If the food items you are cooking have different cooking times, place the food that has a shorter cooking time towards the edge of the zone.

The position of the knob is indicative, according to the type of food to be cooked. It may vary in relation to the quantity used, and the personal taste of the consumer.

GB 5 / SOME HINTS

The teppan yaki can also be used to provide an "large hob" for simmering.

Use a general purpose pot that is the same size as the cooking surface.

• Depending on the amount being cooked, the simmering will stabilise between the 90^ and 130^ positions.
• Cover the pot to maintain the moisture; remove it to reduce moisture.

This type of application is ideal to prepare:

• beef stew
• carbonnades
• blanquette
• stewed rabbit in beer
• beef tongue...

Each time after use, ensure that the control knobs are returned to position 0.

GB 6 / MAINTENANCE
