INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

WARNING

Before use, remove any label from plates. Check the cooking plates are clean and free of dust streaks. If need be, clean using a damp cloth.
While using for the first time, a very small amount of smoke may come out; this is just caused by the warming up of some components.
Place the appliance on a flat surface.
Make sure the plate is closed during pre-heating phase.
Plug in appliance.
The light (C), indicating insertion of plug into the socket, and the light (D), signalling heating phase, will go on.
The light (D) turns off when the appliance reaches the temperature (after about 3 minutes) and is ready for use.

Note

The light (D) will go on again when the required
temperature decreases.

Open appliance completely through the handle (F), after having raised the related lever (G) – Fig. 2.
Place food to be cooked on the bottom plate (B). Always place food towards the back of the plate.
Close the top plate on the bottom one using the handle (F), then lock it by slightly pushing the lever (G) downwards, until the click of lock off (Picture 2) is heard.
For cooking, 5-8 minutes are required. Anyhow, time depends on personal tastes as well as on food type and thickness.
After cooking, turn the appliance off by unplugging the appliance and raising the plate as described above. Remove food by means of a plastic spatula.

WARNING:

Do not touch appliance housing and hot plates to prevent burn hazard.
Do not force the lever (G) to avoid its breakage.
Do not use the locking lever (G) to close the top plate when food is in the appliance. The appliance weight itself gradually presses food during cooking phase.
Just cook with closed plates.
Do not use sharp objects (e.g. knife) to prevent plates from damaging.

CLEANING

WARNING
Clean appliance just with a damp cloth after having unplugged it and when it is completely cold.

Use a damp cloth to clean the plates.
Store appliance by locking the top plate on the bottom one until the click of the appropriate lever (G) is heard (Fig. 2).
Use the apposite rear cord winder (Fig. 3) before storing the appliance also in vertical position (Fig. 4).
