Careful!: Steam from the food can emerge when the lid is opened. Danger of burns!

Important note

Cold-pressed oils, such as olive oil should not be used as dripping as these oils have a poor quality at high temperatures.
Due to the high grill temperatures (up to 250°C), residues of oil, juices, herbs, etc. build up n the hot grill surface and the non-stick effect decreases. It is hard or impossible to remove these residues from the grilling plate.
Therefore, only use heat-resistant oils!
