Important safety instructions

In order to avoid hazards, repairs to this electrical appliance or its power cord must be carried out by our customer service. If repairs are needed, please send the appliance to our customer service department (see appendix).
Before cleaning the appliance, ensure it is disconnected from the power supply and has cooled down completely.
To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not clean the appliance with water and do not immerse it in water.
For detailed information on cleaning the appliance, please refer to the section ‘General care and cleaning’.
The appliance is not intended to be operated by means of an external timer or separate remote-control system.
Caution: This symbol indicates that the accessible housing surfaces may become very hot during operation. Do not touch any part of the appliance except the handle; use suitable oven cloths if necessary.
This appliance is intended for domestic or similar applications, such as
- in shops, offices and other similar working environments,
- in agricultural areas,
- by customers in hotels, motels etc. and similar establishments,
- 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 – such materials are a potential source of danger, e.g. of suffocation.
Every time the appliance is used, the main body including the power cord 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, or if excessive force has been used to pull the power cord, it must no longer be used: even invisible damage may have adverse effects on the operational safety of the appliance.
Do not allow the housing or the power cord to touch hot surfaces (E.g. cooker hotplates) or come into contact with any other heat sources.
Do not operate the grill without the grill plates fitted.
During operation, the appliance must be placed on a heat-resistant surface, impervious to splashes and stains. When cooking food with a high fat or moisture content, splashes are not always avoidable.
Always switch off and remove the plug from the wall socket
- after use,
- in cases of malfunction, and
- during cleaning.
When removing the plug from the wall socket, never pull on the power cord; always grip the plug itself.
Before moving or storing the appliance, ensure it has cooled down completely.
Do not use the handle to carry the appliance.
No responsibility is accepted if damage results from improper use, or if these instructions are not complied with.

On/Off switch with indicator lamps

Use the On/Off switch to turn the appliance on. The main red indicator lamp remains lit as long as the appliance is switched on. The green temperature indicator lamp comes on once the pre-set temperature is reached.

Temperature control
The required grill temperature can be adjusted continuously from MIN (keeping warm) to MAX (grilling).
Operating positions
The different operating positions can be selected by means of the adjusting lever on the right-hand side:
BBQ MODE: With the lever held in this position, the upper grill element can be opened completely for BBQ-style grilling, and also for thorough cleaning (see Locking the upper grill element).
OPEN: The appliance can be fully opened.
LOCK: The upper grill plate is locked in place and the appliance can be moved after a sufficient cooling-down period.
LOW – HIGH: The height of the upper grill element can be adjusted to five different heights for contact grilling or cooking ‘au gratin’, depending on the thickness of the food to be cooked.

Locking the upper grill element

When opening the upper grill element into the barbecue-/cleaning position, it must be locked: put the lever first into the OPEN position and push the handle lightly down; in that way, the upper grill element will be locked by the pin. Now put the lever to the BBQ MODE position, when the appliance can be opened.

Ribbed grill plates

Particularly suitable for grilling meat products such as steak, sausages etc.

Smooth grill plates
Particularly suitable for vegetables and seafood, for making sandwiches or for grilling ‘au gratin’.

Before using for the first time

Clean the grill plates with a damp, lint-free cloth and wipe dry afterwards.
Close the unit.
Insert the plug into a suitable wall outlet, and use the On/Off switch to turn the appliance on. Set the temperature control to its MAX position.
Let the grill heat up for about 15 minutes without any food. This will remove the smell typically encountered when first switching on a grill. (A little smoke may be emitted; this is quite normal, but ensure there is sufficient ventilation.)
Let the appliance cool down.
Clean the grill plates again with a damp, lint-free cloth and wipe dry afterwards.
Both ribbed and smooth plates must be cleaned in this way.

Operation

Fit the required grill plates and set the appliance up in the desired operating position.

Contact grilling (LOW – HIGH)
E. g. cutlet or escalope, fried sausage, sandwich, panini etc.:
adjust the upper grill element to the thickness of the food to be grilled. The upper grill element should be in level contact with the food but should not press down on it.
Cooking ‘au gratin’ (HIGH)

E.g. toasted dishes:
use the adjusting lever to bring the upper grill element to its highest (and horizontal) position.
Barbecue-type grilling (BBQ MODE)

E.g. steak, cutlet or escalope, fried sausage:
put the lever first to the OPEN position and push the handle down lightly; in that way, the upper grill element will be locked. Now open the upper grill element slightly, put the lever to the BBQ MODE position, hold the lever and open the appliance fully.

Insert the plug into a suitable wall outlet, and use the On/Off switch to turn the appliance on.
Ensure that the fat collection tray is in place; always empty it in good time during operation.
Use the temperature control to choose the desired temperature level.
Wait until pre-heating is complete and the green temperature indicator lamp comes on.

General care and cleaning

Before cleaning the appliance, remove the plug from the wall socket and make sure that the grill has cooled down completely with the plates closed.
To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not clean the appliance with water and do not immerse it in water.
The outside of the grill may be cleaned with a soft damp cloth only. Wipe dry with a dry cloth afterwards.
Cleaning the non-stick grill plates: The plates can be removed for easy cleaning: open the unit and put the upper element in a vertical position; then push the release button to remove the plate.
To remove the lower plate, push the lower-plate release button and remove the plate.
Clean the plates in warm soapy water; dry thoroughly afterwards.
Replace the plates in the unit after cleaning. Ensure that the recesses on the plates engage on the brackets on the unit.
The fat collection tray can also be cleaned with hot soapy water.
