Thermostat:
With the thermostat the temperature of the grill plate can be adjusted.
The Numbers on the thermostat knob have following meaning:
1 = thermostat switched on
2 = keeping warm
3 = grilling with low temperature ( for fish etc.)
4 = grilling on medium temperature (for chicken etc.)
5 = grilling on max. temperature
Control Lamp:
When the appliance is plugged in and the thermostat is adjusted, the control lamp is
shining. When the temperature is achieved, the lamp goes off.
Grill preparations:
Oil the grill slightly before the usage. This makes it more easy to turn the food. Then
heat up the device for ca 10 min; the thermostat on maximum level with closed lid.
Please note: There might be a slight hum when switching on the thermostat. This is
normal and no defect! The food should be not frozen during grilling. Please use the
appliance only with the drip tray.
Never cover the appliance with aluminium foil, pan or plate, because the heat cannot
get away from the heating element.
Never cut on the grill surface because the coating can be damaged.
During grilling the bonnet can be placed on the plate or can be hanged at the edge
to be used as a wind shield.
Is the appliance used as a table top model the lid can only put on the plate.
Careful!: Steam from the food can emerge when the lid is opened. Danger of burns!
Important note
Cold-pressed oils, such as olive oil should not be used as dripping as these oils have a
poor quality at high temperatures.
Due to the high grill temperatures (up to 250°C), residues of oil, juices, herbs, etc.
build up on the hot grill surface and the non-stick effect decreases. It is hard or im-
possible to remove these residues from the grilling plate.
Therefore, only use heat-resistant oils!
