Using The Raclette - Gourmet Maxx XJ-6K114CO Mode D'emploi

7. You should perform the initial start-up without any food since odours or smoke may
develop due to coating residues that may still be present. Allow the device to heat up for
approximately 15 minutes without any food and without little raclette pans. During this
time, make sure the room is well ventilated, e. g. with wide-open windows! Please also
note the instructions in the "Using the Raclette" chapter.

Using the Raclette

PLEASE NOTE!
❐ Ensure that there is suffi cient ventilation while the device is in operation.
❐ Ensure that the food you wish to prepare does not touch the heating elements inside the
device.
❐ CAUTION Danger of burns! The raclette device will become very hot during use and
afterwards! When setting up the raclette device, ensure that you select a location with
enough clearance all round the device.
❐ Always place the hot stone into the recess in the middle of the raclette plate if you do not
wish to use the fondue set. This will prevent any fats and liquids from being able to drip
onto the heating elements.
❐ Always insert the receptacle for the fondue pot into the raclette grill plate before you
place the fondue pot onto the raclette grill plate. Without the receptacle, it is not possible
to guarantee that the pot can be held in place securely.
❐ Be careful when taking out the little raclette pans or fondue forks in order to prevent
burns.
❐ Keep sharp or pointy objects away from the surface of the little raclette pans and the
raclette grill plate. Such objects could damage the coating! You should therefore use the
wooden spatulas which are supplied or other kitchen utensils made from wood or heat-
resistant plastic.
❐ We recommend that you only season the ingredients after you have prepared them on
the raclette device as the herbs and spices can burn if they get too hot and this may cause
smoke to be produced.
❐ Do not leave any empty little pans sitting on the raclette plate of the heated device.
1. Place the raclette device on a stable, heat-resistant surface which is easy to clean.
2. Connect the device to a mains socket that has been properly installed. Ensure that it is not
possible for others to trip over the connected cable.
3. If you have not already done so, position the raclette grill plate correctly on the raclette
device.
4. If you do not wish to use the fondue set, place the hot stone into
the recess in the middle of the raclette grill plate. Make sure that
the smooth side of the stone with the groove is facing upwards.
To this end, follow the instructions in the "Hot Stone" chapter.
If you wish to use the fondue set, leave the recess in the midd-
le of the grill plate clear during the heating-up phase.
