deform when held in the heat for too long.
Warning! Do not use spirit or petrol to light or re-light the
1
appliance. Only use firelighters that comply with
EN 1860-3.

6 USEFUL TIPS AND TRICKS
6.1 Adjusting the fire intensity
You can adjust the intensity of the fire by opening and closing the
air supply holes at the bottom of the bowl:
The more you open the holes, the more air is sucked into the
•
bowl and the more intense the fire will be.
The more you close the holes, the less air is sucked into the
•
bowl and the less intense the fire will be.
6.2 Preventing food from burning
To prevent your food from burning:
Never start grilling when there still are flames in the bowl.
•
Wait until the charcoal is covered with a thin layer of white
ashes.
Avoid exposing your food to excessive heat. You can reduce
•
the heat by (partially) closing the air supply holes at the
bottom of the bowl.
6.3 Preventing food from sticking
To prevent your food from sticking to the grill:
Oil the food lightly with a brush before you put it on the grill.
•
You can also oil the grill itself.
Do not turn the food too quickly. Let it catch some heat first.

MAINTAINING THE APPLIANCE
Let the appliance cool down completely.
Release the clips and remove the lid from the appliance.
Remove the grill and clean it as described in "7.2 Cleaning
the grill".
Release the clips and remove the stainless steel spacer.
Unscrew the bottom shell of the appliance.

dishwasher.
You can also clean these components by hand, using a
soft sponge or cloth and a regular detergent.
Let the grill cool down completely.
Spray the foam on the grill and let it act for a while.
The foam discolours, as it soaks off the dirt and greases.
Remove the foam with a soft sponge and water and rinse the
grill thoroughly.
Dry the grill well and store it in a dry place. This prevents
formation of rust.
You can also put the grill in the dishwasher or clean it with
a soft detergent or with sodium bicarbonate. Never use
oven cleaners on the grill.
Make sure the appliance is completely dry before you
