7. COOKING TIMES

Whole fish
Fish fillets
Shrimps
Chicken legs
Chicken wings
Steak
Cutlets
Kebab /
Skewered meat
Sausages
Bacon
The times are recommended once only.
The cooking times primarily depend on the fol-
lowing factors:
• The setting of the temperature regulator:
A low temperature setting should be selec-
ted to keep the grilled food warm or to grill
delicate items such as fish. Pork and beef
should be cooked at the maximum tempera-
ture setting.
• The type and thickness of the food being
cooked.
• The temperature of the food being
cooked: The food to be cooked should always
be at room temperature. Never put frozen food
directly onto the cooking plate, it could
become tough.

8. GRILLING TIPS

Tender slices of meat are generally more suit-
able for grilling. Somewhat tougher meat will
become more tender if it has been marinated
overnight.

• A marinade is always made of oil (in order
to add moisture), vinegar (to make it softer)
and a mixture of herbs.
• Never cook meat too long. Even pork is
better if it is still pink and juicy.
• Do not prick holes into the meat if you can
possibly avoid it. Using forks to turn the
meat makes it dry, so we recommend the
use of wooden tongs.
• Fish and meat should be turned only once
if possible; repeated turning is unnecessary
and dries out the food being cooked.
• In order to turn over fish, use a large woo-
den spatula so that you can lift up the entire
piece of fish when turning it over.
If the food being cooked sticks to the grilling
plate, wipe down the cooking plate from time
to time with a paper towel dipped in oil.
9. CLEANING AND CARE (Fig. 10-11)
• Danger of electric shock!
Switch off the unit before it is to
be cleaned, pull out the plug and
pull out the thermostatic plug
from the cooking plate.
• Danger of burns!
It is essential to let the unit cool
down.
• Do not use metallic cutlery such as knives
or forks, etc., for cleaning. The non-stick
coating can be damaged as a result.
• Pull out the tray from the unit (2).
• Use only the wooden spatula (g) provided
to remove any rest particles from the coo-
king plates (10/11).
• The cooking plate can be put into the dish-
washing machine or washed by hand, and
by using a plastic washing-up brush and
hot water. The tray should be cleaned by
hand.
Danger of electric shock!
Never put the thermostatic plug (c) with the
mains cable into the dishwashing machine.
The appliance inlet shall be dried before re-
use.
