SEVERIN PG 1511 Mode D'emploi page 14

∙ Clean the grill rack and grill pan with
warm soapy water; dry thoroughly
afterwards.
∙ Assemble the grill as described above.
∙ Fill the grill pan with water up to the 'Max'
marking.
∙ Insert the plug into a suitable earthed
power-outlet.
∙ Let the grill heat up for approximately 5
minutes without any food on the rack. This
will lessen the smell typically encountered
when fi rst switching on a new grill (a slight
smell and a little smoke may be emitted -
ensure suffi cient ventilation).
Grilling
∙ The grill pan must be fi lled with water up
to the 'Max' marking.
∙ Insert the plug into a suitable earthed
power-outlet.
∙ Set the thermostat control knob to
its 'Max' position. The indicator light
comes on, and the heating element is
permanently switched on.
∙ After approximately 5 minutes, the
heating element reaches the right
temperature for grilling.
∙ Thermostat-controlled grill models can
also be used to keep the food warm by
turning the thermostat control down.
∙ Caution: to prevent a possible build-
up of heat and subsequent damage to
the appliance, the food to be cooked
must be placed directly onto the grill
rack. Do not place any objects (e.g.
aluminium foil, barbecue plates or
other items) between the food and the
heating element.
∙ As the water in the grill pan evaporates
during grilling, it must be topped up in
good time. When adding water, ensure
14
that the water does not come into contact
with the heating element; always remove
the plug from the socket fi rst.
∙ Once the grilling process is fi nished:
∙ Set the thermostat control knob back to
'●'.
∙ Remove the plug from the power outlet
and allow the grill to cool down.
General care and cleaning
∙ Ensure that the grill is thoroughly cleaned
after use.
∙ Before cleaning the grill, ensure it is
disconnected from the power supply and
has completely cooled down.
∙ Do not use metallic pads or abrasive
cleaning agents.
∙ Remove the grill rack and clean it with
warm soapy water. To remove persistent
food residues, it can be left soaking for
a while. Do not put the rack into a dish
washer.
∙ The heating element can be removed
for cleaning. To avoid the risk of electric
shock, do not clean the heating element
with water and do not immerse it in water.
The junction box may be wiped with a
slightly damp lint-free cloth.
∙ All other parts can be cleaned with a cloth
soaked in soapy water, and should be
wiped completely dry afterwards.
∙ For grill models with an aluminium
grill pan, please note that the pan will
discolour after several cycles of use. This
is normal and does not impair the safe
function of the grill.
Storage
After cleaning, the grill should be stored
indoors in a dry location.
