INSTRUCTION FOR USE
When using the appliance for the first time
Remove all packaging and labels from the plate. Before throwing the packing material away, make sure you have removed all parts of the new appliance. We recommend you keep the box and packing to re-use in the future.
Please note: the grease drip cups are outside the polystyrene insert.
Before use, clean the base, cover and dials with a damp cloth to remove dust accumulated during transport.
Clean the cooking plates, grease drip cups and cleaning tool thoroughly. The plates, grease drip cups and spatula are dishwasher safe.
Please note: The first time you use the appliance, it may give off a slight odour and a little smoke. This is normal and common to all appliances with non-stick surfaces. The
appliance is supplied with a black cleaning tool to clean the plates when the appliance has completely cooled down after use (after at least 30 minutes).
If you use the tool for a long time on plates which are still hot, the plastic may melt.
Contact grill (use the grill plate)
The contact grill is ideal for cooking hamburgers, deboned meat and thin meat slices, vegetables and sandwiches.
The “contact” function is perfect to prepare food rapidly and healthily. When you use the contact grill, the food cooks quickly as it is in contact with the plates on both side at once (see figure).
The grease from the food is drained and collected by the grooves on the plate and the hole at the corner.
When the appliance is used in the “contact” position, we recommend using the grill plates.
Rest the cover evenly on the food until the required cooking level is reached.
The appliance has a special handgrip and hinge allowing the cover to be adjusted according to the thickness of the food. Thinly sliced potatoes and very thick steaks can be prepared with equally perfect results. If you want to cook a number of different types of food simultaneously using the contact grill, the various foods should have the same thickness to allow the cover to be closed evenly.
Barbecue mode with grill plate (use the grill plate)
The appliance can be used as a grill/barbecue to prepare hamburgers, steak, chicken (chicken on the bone is not recommended as it does not cook evenly) and fish.
The grill/barbecue mode is the most versatile.
The plates are in the open position, doubling the cooking surface (see figure).
You can prepare a number of different foods on the separate
