Cooking
Choose the cooking temperature according to the food (see cooking chart). Preheat the plancha for 10 minutes by setting the selected temperature. If necessary, coat the plate evenly with oil using a pad or brush. Place the food on the plate and cook according to your taste. With time, you will come to learn the most suitable temperatures for the items to be cooked according to their thickness, texture and your personal tastes. The temperatures and times below are provided as a guide only.

ADVICE
In order to avoid making deep scratches on the plate, do not cut your food directly on it.

Maintenance and cleaning

The plate
Scratches and black spots appear soon during the normal course of use of the appliance. This will not impair cooking in any way. Cleaning is performed with the plancha switched off and the power lead disconnected. It is easier if the plancha is still lukewarm. Beware risks of burns. Use a rigid spatula to remove the bulk of the juices adhering to the cooking plate by pushing them towards the removable tray for collecting cooking residues. Then thoroughly moisten the cooking plate to water down the remaining juices (using a sponge filled with water or by dropping ice cubes on it). Leave for a few minutes. Use the rigid spatula to remove the remaining watered down juices by pushing them towards the removable tray for collecting cooking residues. Finish cleaning with an abrasive then a soft sponge. Pour white vinegar onto the plate to remove odours and residual flavours After cooking salty preparations, the cooking plate must be cleaned promptly (risk of the plate being corroded by the salt). Do not use cleaning products that contain chlorine on stainless steel, as they may cause corrosion.

The frame
Clean the ferritic stainless steel outer casing with a damp sponge. Do not use an abrasive sponge, scourer or brush. Ensure the appliance is cold before cleaning.

Cooking waste collector
This collects the cooking waste. It must be handled once the appliance is cool and then emptied and cleaned before the next use.

Storage
Store your plancha in a dry and safe location where it will not be damaged. Before storing away for the winter, clean your plancha thoroughly and apply a stainless steel protector.
