Cooking zones

BEFORE FIRST USE

Unpacking

1.  Take the unit and accessories out of the box.
2.  Keep the two wrapping cartons and the enclosed padding for the steak reactor. Only with this special packaging a safe transport is possible in case of complaint.
3.  Remove the remaining accessories from the interior of the grill.
4.  Carefully remove all packaging and check that the interior is free from packaging material. Check the appliance and especially the heating element and cable for damage.

Setup

•  When setting up, ensure that there is a sufficient distance between the device and strong heat sources such as hot plates, heating tubes, etc.
•  Avoid heat build-up and place the unit in an area that allows heat occurring during use of the device to dissipate.
•  The minimum distance on the sides of the device must be at least 15 cm. Above, there must be a minimum distance of 50 cm. The feet also serve as spaces underneath the device.
•  During the first use, smoke and odors may result from the burning of care oils. Therefore heat the device while it is empty (without food) for about 10 minutes in a well-ventilated room with the grill and drip tray intact.
•  Do not place the device under a wall cabinet or in a corner. Keep a safe distance from flammable materials such as curtains or tablecloths.
•  Set the appliance on a stable, flat, heat-resistant surface.

Insert grill box and the grease drip tray

For a simplified cleaning of the device, the grill attachment may be removed. Insert the attachment into the grill compartment. To prevent damage, make sure that the attachment does not come into contact with the heating element. The attachment is properly inserted when the latching hooks located on the top of the grill attachment engage the matching bolt in the grill compartment. The grill attachment is necessary for the safe operation of the device and must remain in the device during operation. Removal may only take place in a fully cooled state To remove the attachment, slightly raise until the latching hooks located at the top of the grill attachment are released. Pull the grill insert carefully out of the front. Contact with the heating element must be avoided to prevent damage. During the grilling of meat products, liquid is normally released from the food. This must not enter into the interior of the housing. Operate therefore only with the grease drip tray inserted.

COMMISSIONING

•  If the stopwatch has run for 1 hour without the appliance being operated manually, the grill will automatically stop.

Note: If you have finished grilling or have not used the appliance for a long time, switch it off. Wait until the fan stops running and then unplug the appliance.

OPERATION IN DETAIL

Preheating
During operation, the high-temperature grill displays the current temperature measured by a temperature sensor built into the heating element. As soon as the set target temperature is reached, an acoustic signal sounds. The temperature display then oscillates ± 20 °C around the target value.

Making Barbecue

Usual cooking time is between one and three minutes on each side of the food. Notes on cooking different foods and meats can be found in the table “forms of preparation”. The meat should be taken out of the refrigerator about 1 to 2 hours before grilling and slowly brought to room temperature. Insert the drip tray into rail 6 of the preheated grill attachment using the guide handle. Place the meat on the non-preheated grate and insert it into rails 1 to 5 of the preheated grill attachment using the guide handle. Select a rail depending on the thickness of the meat. For optimal browning and crusting, the meat should be positioned as close to the heating element as possible, but never touching it. Immediately remove the guide handle from the grate to avoid heating the handle. Caution: risk of injury. When placing meat, make sure that the piece of meat is positioned centrally under the heating element to ensure uniform irradiation of the food. To turn the meat you should completely remove the grill grate and place it on a fireproof surface. Turn the meat over and put it back into the BBQ. Use a grill tong instead of sharp utensils to avoid the meat juice flowing out. It is recommended to first warm the device. After preheating, you may restart the grilling process to allow enough time within one switching period. To do this, the rotary knob must be pressed three times in quick succession.

Remove meat and let rest after cooking

The strong radiant heat at a high-temperature setting between 650 °C and 850 °C ensures rapid browning or crusting. In most cases, it is recommended that after strong irradiation, you remove the meat and let it rest. This can be done at reduced temperature in the upper grill room (rail 1-5) or better still in the lower grill room (rail 7-9), or even directly in the drip tray in the lower room of the grill attachment (resting area). For this, you can remove the drip tray with the guide handle.

Drip tray

By default, the drip tray should be inserted in rail 6 during the grilling process. It can get hot and, just like the grill, should only be operated with the guide handle. Although the dripping grease drains off quickly into the grease trap, a thin film of grease may adhere to the surface of the drip tray. Due to the strong infrared radiation, it can burn into the surface. From a practical point of view, it is recommended to remove the drip tray briefly between rounds of grilling and drain with water or wipe with a damp cloth.

BASIC INFORMATION ON HIGH-TEMPERATURE GRILLING

Displayed temperature

The temperature shown in the display is measured by a high-precision temperature sensor directly in the heating element. According to lab measurements, the surface temperature of the heating element is about 3-5% above the displayed temperature. As the distance to the food being grilled increases, it decreases. Since the device works mainly with radiant heat, the intensity of the heat exposure depends on the surface of the meat. Surfaces that are dark and have little reflection heat up faster than surfaces with light colors.

Note: it is not effective to measure the temperature of the heating element by means of an infrared thermometer. Through various reflections from the surrounding stainless steel surfaces and through the protective grid, the measurement result will be strongly influenced.

The usage of a high-temperature grill is very different from the usage with customary grills. The performance per area is about ten times higher.

The preparation of a steak is dived into the following steps:

1.  Preheat device.
2.  Position and insert the meat
3.  Grilling one side (1-4 minutes depending on the type of meat, see table)
4.  Grill the first side (1-4 minutes depending on meat and distance, see table)
5.  Grill the other side (1-4 minutes depending on the type of meat, see table)
6.  Grill the second side (1-4 minutes depending on meat and distance, see table)
7.  Let the meat rest (choice of temperature and time, see table)
8.  Enjoy!

Turn off and allow to cool down

If the set time has run out or the grilling procedure has been interrupted, the fans keeps on running. This is important to make sure that the case does not heat up to much by the residual heat in the device. Turn off the mains only when the fan has stopped automatically.

CLEANING AND CARE

The device may only be cleaned after it has cooled down completely, the main switch has been switched off and the earthing contact plug has been removed from the socket and the device is therefore completely disconnected from the mains. First remove the grill grate, the drip tray, the drip tray and then the grill attachment. The grill should be completely sprayed with an appropriate cleaner. Pay attention to metal compatibility when choosing a cleaner. Let the cleaning agent act, and if the grill insert is very dirty spray several times. After a sufficient reaction time, thoroughly rinse the insert with the aid of a washing-up brush with plastic bristles. Do not use abrasives, wire brushes or steel sponges to prevent scratches and corrosion. The grill room and the housing must be regularly and thoroughly cleaned with a slightly damp cloth. Do not spray cleaners in or on the device. Detergent should be applied to the appliance using a cloth. Prevent strong mechanical loads on the heating during the cleaning process. Attention: residues may ignite, so clean thoroughly.
