ã=
Risk of burns!
The appliance becomes hot during operation. Allow the
appliance to cool down before cleaning.
ã=
Risk of electric shock!
Do not use high pressure washers or steam cleaners to clean
the appliance.
Cleaning the appliance
Clean the appliance after each use, once it has cooled down.
This will help prevent residues from burning on. Once residues
have burned on several times, they become more difficult to
remove.
Do not scrape burnt-on residues off, but leave them to soak in
soapy water.
Remove the wire rack and swivel the heating element upwards.
Remove the lava stone tray with the lava stones.

Clean in the sink with water and wash-
ing-up liquid using a washing-up brush;
dry with a soft cloth. Leave stubborn
dirt to soak or remove with our grill
cleaner gel (order no. 463582).
Lava stones
Dry very damp lava stones occasion-
ally in the oven at 200°C. This can
help prevent the formation of mould.
Replace lava stones when they
become black. The lava stones may
be fully saturated with fat and could
generate a lot of smoke during use or
the fat could catch fire.
You can obtain the correct lava stones
from your specialist retailer (order no.
LV 030 000). When topping up,
ensure that the grill element does not
lie directly on top of the lava stones.
