- Set the appliance in the desired posi-
tion, 1, 2 or 3.

the drainage vent to catch surplus
fat.
- To switch off the appliance, turn the
temperature control knob counter-
clockwise until it stops between the
"slow" and the "0" position; then
push and, in the mean time, turn the
knob once more counterclockwise
until the "0" position is reached.
- After grilling, unplug the appliance
and allow to cool.
Do not use sharp tools on the grill
plates as these may damage the
non-stick coating.

allow it to cool before cleaning.
- Clean the appliance after each use to
prevent unpleasant smells or fumes
from being emitted when it is next
used.

COOKING TIPS

- Thawed and marinaded meat should
be dried thoroughly before being pla-
ced on the grill.
- Meat should be seasoned before gril-
ling but salt should be added at time
of serving.
- Food which is to be contact-grilled
should be uniformly thick to ensure
even browning.
- Always oil the lower plate (G) before
grilling fish.
- A number of recipes suitable for the
grill have been provided.
Please note that the cooking times
given are only approximate.
They may vary, depending on the
characteristics of the food being
cooked (temperature prior to
cooking, water content) and indivi-
dual preference.
- Leave the plates to soak in warm
water to remove any residue left
during cooking.
- Do not use abrasive tools or cleaning
agents as these may scratch or
damage the non-stick coating.
- Refit the clean plates on the applian-
ce making sure that they are perfectly
dry.
