Using The Appliance; Preparation; Eliminating Minor Faults Yourself - Bosch TFB440 Série Mode D'emploi

Using the appliance

W Risk of burns!
Fat may splash during grilling.
Important: Do not operate without grill
plates! Do not scratch the coated plates
with sharp-edged objects!
As the contact grill can be used in different
positions, various cooking methods
are possible. The fold-out pages at the
front of the instruction manual illustrate
recommended grilling times and grill
settings for different foods.
Contact grilling (Fig. 2a)
The corrugated side of the upper grill plate
is placed directly on the food. The food
is cooked evenly from above and below.
Especially suitable for quick grilling at high
temperatures, e.g. rump steaks, chops or
paninis.
Grilling (Fig. 2b)
The grill is opened fully. The food is dis-
tributed over the whole area and must be
turned.
Au gratin dishes (Fig. 2c)
The upper plate is pulled up and is
suspended horizontally in the highest
position. The upper grill plate must not
touch the food. Especially suitable for
cooking "au gratin" and for baking toppings.

Preparation

■ Position the contact grill according to the
cooking method.
■ Insert grill plates with the coated side
towards the food.
■ Place the fat collecting cup under the fat
drain.
■ Close the appliance and select the
required temperature using the rotary
knob.
■ The indicator light lights up. This
extinguishes as soon as the set
temperature has been reached.
■ Now place the food on the grill.
■ The cooking time depends on the
thickness and size of the food.
Tip: To obtain optimum results, adjust the
temperature during use.
General
Grill food so it is light instead of dark
or brown, remove burnt remnants. Do
not overgrill starchy foods, especially
potato and cereal products (production
of acrylamides minimised).
Before placing food on the grill plates,
preheat the grill. Place food on the grill
plates. Before placing new food on the
plates, wipe them with kitchen roll. Frozen
food items must be fully defrosted and dry.
Only add salt to meat and fish after grilling.
