Set-Up And Use - Lagrange BG 700 Mode D'emploi

your appliance in a place that is exposed to bad weather or
humidity.
• Never use the appliance for additional heating.
• Never place cooking dishes or aluminium foil between food
and the cooking grill.
• Never plug in the heating element while it is removed from
the appliance. The element is designed for use exclusively
with this appliance and any other use is prohibited.
• Never operate the appliance without water in the pan. This
appliance is designed for use with a minimum volume of
water. The purpose of this water is to minimise smoking and
prevent overheating of the pan and work areas. Food drip-
pings fall into the water.
IMPORTANT: This is an electric grill and should never be
used with charcoal or any other fuel.
• Avoid cooking excessively fatty foods. The heating element
reaches temperatures similar to those of conventional char-
coal barbecues. Food drippings may ignite spontaneously
from time to time.

SET-UP AND USE

___________________________________
First use
• When unpacking the appliance, take care to remove and
check all packing for parts.
• We recommend cleaning the stainless steel pan and grill
before the first use.
• A new unit may smoke slightly during the first use. To reduce
the chance of smoking, allow the appliance to heat for 10
minutes, and then cool for approximately 0 minutes.
Set-up and use
• Assemble the appliance as illustrated on page 42.
• To use the wind shield, place both ends of the wind shield in
the stainless steel pan, and then tilt the back piece of the
wind shield and insert its tab into the pan's middle slot. It is
not necessary to use the wind shield when cooking indoors.
• Pour 1.6 litres of water into the stainless steel pan.
• Insert the heating element base into the provided bracket.
Ensure that the element is inserted correctly. If the red indi-
cator lights up, the element has been inserted incorrectly.
IMPORTANT: never operate the appliance without water in
the pan. During use, it is important to watch the water level
and add more water as needed, taking care to pour in the
water slowly to prevent hot water from splashing out. If you
inadvertently allow the water pan to go dry, unplug the appli-
ance immediately and allow it to cool completely before
pouring more water into the pan to prevent sudden vapo-
risation and ignition of any greasy residue on the heating
element.
• Put the grill in place.
• Unroll the cord completely.
• Plug in the appliance and turn the knob to the desired set-
ting; the green indicator lights up.
• After pre-heating for 5 to 15 minutes, you may begin cooking.
• Place the food on the grill.
• If cooking meat, grease the meat pieces before cooking.
Turning over meat pieces before they are cooked may cause
the meat to stick slightly to the grill.
• Cooking time depends on the food and your personal taste.
