Warnings for the Use of the Appliance
WARNING:
• Oils and fats can ignite if overheated. Caution is
advised! Do not forget to switch off the appliance after
use! First turn the temperature control knob to the
lowest setting and then pull the mains plug out of the
socket.
• Keep a safe distance from easily flammable objects
such as furniture, curtains, etc.
• Do not move or carry the hot appliance while it is in
operation! Risk of burns!
Avoid Damaging the Non-Stick Coated Grill Surfaces!
CAUTION:
• Only use spatulas or turners made of wood or Teflon.
• Do not work with sharp objects (e. g. knife, fork) on the
grill surface.
• Do not use utensils made of plastic. They can melt.
Notes for Use
• The non-stick grill surfaces allow you to prepare food
without grease.
• If you want to use oil, you should use an oil that can be
heated to a high temperature, such as sunflower oil.
Do not use olive oil, butter or margarine, as these fats
develop smoke even at low temperatures.
• Do not use frozen food. Defrost them beforehand.
• Dab wet food dry with a cloth.
Electrical Connection
1. Make sure that the temperature control knob is set to the
MIN position.
2. Check that the mains voltage matches that of the appli-
ance. You will find the relevant information on the type
plate on the underside of the appliance.
3. Only connect the appliance to a properly installed
earthed socket.
- Make sure that the cable is laid in such a way that
nobody can pull on it or trip over it.
Switching the Appliance On / Off
• The appliance is operated using the temperature control
knob with infinitely variable setting.
• The appliance is switched off when the temperature
control knob is in the MIN position.
• The lighting around the temperature control knob
indicates the active heating mode. It switches on and off
during operation. This is normal and indicates that the
temperature is being regulated and maintained. The light
goes out when the selected temperature is reached.

Before First Use
There is a protective layer on the heating element which
burns when the appliance heats up. As a result, there may
be a slight development of smoke and odour when using
the appliance, but these will subside after a few uses. This
is not a defect.
• You can minimise the smoke development by wiping the
heating element with a slightly damp cloth before using it
for the first time.
• Do not use any cleaning agents!
• Wipe with a dry cloth.
• Only switch on the appliance when it is completely dry.
• Always ensure sufficient ventilation.
1. Lightly grease the pans and the griddle.
2. Place the grill plate on the rack and place the pans on
the shelf.
3. Operate the appliance for about 10 minutes without grilling
food so that the protective layers can remove. To do this,
set the temperature control knob to the MAX position.
4. After the time has elapsed, set the temperature control
knob to the MIN position. Unplug the appliance from the
mains.
5. Let the appliance cool down completely.
6. Clean again all parts that will come into contact with
food.
Your appliance is now ready for use.
Using the Appliance
Location
Place the appliance on a level, moisture- and heat-resistant
surface. The location must be stable and non-slip. The
surface should be easy to clean, as splashes are unavoid-
able. For sensitive surfaces, place a heat-resistant plate
underneath.
Montage
The grill plate can be used on both sides.
- The smooth surface is particularly suitable for frying, as it
offers the largest possible contact surface with the food.
- The ribbed surface is suitable for grilling. It can be used
to give the food a grill pattern. The ribbing also reduces
the fat content during cooking.
1. Place the grill plate on the appliance so that it has a firm
hold.
2. Place the pans underneath.
Temperature Control Knob
Set the temperature control knob according to the intended
use:
• MAX position: for grilling or roasting.
• Small or medium position: for keeping warm or cooking.
When the heating phase is complete, the control lamp goes
out.
