Important safety instructions

The appliance should only be connected to an earthed socket installed in accordance with the regulations.
The appliance is also designed for outdoor use, and must therefore be operated with an additional earth-leakage circuit-breaker with a rated tripping current not exceeding 30mA.
Make sure that the supply voltage corresponds with the voltage marked on the rating label.
The power cord should be regularly examined for any signs of damage. In the event of such damage being found, the appliance must no longer be used.
In order to avoid hazards, and to comply with safety requirements, repairs to this electrical appliance or its power cord must be carried out by our customer service. If repairs are needed, please contact our customer service department by phone or email (see appendix).
- Caution: This symbol indicates that the wind-guard, grill rack, and heating element may become very hot during operation – there is a danger of burns.
Before cleaning the grill, ensure it is disconnected from the power supply and has completely cooled down.
To avoid the risk of electric shock, the heating element with sensor and power cord and the core thermometer must not be immersed in liquid or even allowed to come into contact with it.
Clean the grill rack, reflector tray and wind-guard with hot soapy water, or in a dishwasher. For detailed information on cleaning the appliance, please refer to the section Cleaning and care.
The appliance is not intended to be operated by means of an external timer or a separate remote-control system.
- Warning: Do not, under any circumstances, use charcoal or any other solid or liquid fuel to operate the grill.
- Caution: Do not cover the grill rack with aluminum foil, barbecue dishes or other items, as the resulting build-up of heat could seriously damage the grill.
A maximum of 900 ml of water may be poured into the reflector tray.
This appliance is intended for domestic or similar applications, such as by staff members in shops, offices, and other similar working environments, in agricultural working environments, by customers in hotels, motels, etc. and similar establishments, and in bed-and-breakfast-type environments.
This appliance may be used by children (at least 8 years of age) and by persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lacking experience and knowledge, provided they have been given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance and fully understand all dangers and safety precautions involved.
Children must not be permitted to play with the appliance.
Children must not be permitted to carry out any cleaning or maintenance work on the appliance unless they are supervised and at least 8 years of age.
The appliance and its power cord must be kept well away from children under 8 at all times.
- Caution: Keep any packaging materials well away from children – these are a potential source of danger, e.g. of suffocation.
Before the appliance is used, the main body as well as any attachment fitted should be checked thoroughly for any defects. Should the appliance, for instance, have been dropped onto a hard surface, it must no longer be used: even invisible damage may have adverse effects on the operational safety of the appliance.
During operation, the grill must be placed on a level, heat-resistant surface, impervious to splashes and stains. When grilling food with a high fat or moisture content, splashes are not always avoidable.
Do not position the grill next to a wall or corner, and ensure that no inflammable materials are stored near it.
Remember that food with a high fat or moisture content may tend to ignite; therefore always fill the reflector tray with water before use. Do not connect the grill to mains power until the trey has been filled with water. The water helps to cool down the reflector tray, reduces the build-up of smoke, and also facilitates cleaning.
Keep monitoring the water level. Water should be added in good time, while ensuring that it does not come into contact with the heating element. Caution: Disconnect the grill from the mains before adding water.
Before the grill is used, always check that the heating element is correctly fitted in the housing and reflector tray.
The grill must be supervised at all times during operation.
Keep in mind that the heating elements and grill rack become very hot during operation. Even after the heating elements are switched off, they must not be touched until they have sufficiently cooled down – there is otherwise a severe danger of burns.
Do not allow the power cord to touch any hot parts of the appliance.
Always remove the plug from the wall socket
- before filling with water,
- after use,
- in case of any malfunction, and
- during cleaning.
The use of an extension cord or reel causes a loss of power, possibly combined with a subsequent heat build-up in the cable. It is therefore necessary to unwind the cable completely before use. Make sure that the cord is approved for outdoor use and for the power specified (see rating label).
Never move the barbecue while it is in operation.
Remove water after use.
- Caution: Always make sure that the barbecue has cooled down completely before it is moved, cleaned, covered or stored.
- Caution: Whenever the barbecue is not in use, the heating element with the connection box must be removed from the barbecue and stored in a dry space indoors.
The other parts of the barbecue must not be stored outdoors or in an open area where they could be affected by the weather.
The grill must not be used with any core thermometer other than the one supplied.
No responsibility is accepted if damage results from improper use, or if these instructions are not complied with.
This product complies with all binding CE labeling directives.

Before using for the first time

Remove any packaging materials and stickers from the appliance.
Clean the grill rack, reflector tray and wind-guard with warm soapy water; wipe thoroughly dry afterwards.
Assemble the appliance as described in Preparing the unit.
Let the grill heat up for approximately 10 minutes at maximum power without any food (see ‘Boost-zone’ grilling). This will remove the smell typically encountered when first switching on a grill. A little smoke may be emitted; for that reason, adequate ventilation should be ensured by opening windows or balcony doors; an extractor hood is also suitable.

Place the reflector tray into the grill housing.
Fit the heating element with junction box into the reflector tray. The appliance is equipped with a safety switch. The unit can be operated only with the junction box properly installed.

Fit the wind-guard elements first at the rear into the recesses on the grill rack, and then secure them on the grill rack frame.

Base stand assembly

For grill models with base stand, assemble the stand as shown in the diagram:
Fit the four legs into the frame; ensure they are locked.
