Tips on grilling

Use of the grill

The numbers 1-12 are temperature
settings. From 1-11 the heating is
increased and regulated automatically.
On 12, full power is achieved and the
heating elements are glowing. This
step is suitable for heating up the grill
quickly and for cleaning the heating
elements. The table shows the
approximate adjustment steps for
different grill dishes.

NB!! The grid must always be used.

Grilling over lava blocks

Before starting the grilling, the grid is
lifted off and the heating elements
turned up. The box for the lava blocks
is put into place.

NB!! Preheat the grill elements for
about 5 minutes on step 12. This will
result in the meat getting heated from
the lava blocks as well.

elements are preheated for
approximately 5 minutes on step 12,
the meat will get heat from the water
and become juicy. When fat drips
down into the water it will cool off so
quickly that it cannot be ignited. Keep
an eye on the water and refill as
necessary.

NB!! Oil may be applied onto the meat
before it is laid on the grill.

Warning

The lava block box shall always be
placed in the grill and the grill grid
placed on top before the grill unit is
switched on.

Spices may be sprinkled directly on
the meat, or over the lava stones in
order to give the meat an additional
aroma.

NB!! Oil may be applied onto the meat
before laying it on the grill.

Grilling over water

Grilling may be done with water
instead of the lava blocs. If the grill
