INSTALLATION
- Before use, make sure the appliance has not
been damaged during transport.
- Install the appliance on a horizontal surface out
of reach of children as certain parts of the grill
become extremely hot during use.
- Before plugging into the mains, make sure that:
• the mains voltage corresponds to the value V
indicated on the rating plate on the bottom of
the appliance;
• the mains socket has a minimum rating of
10A;
• the plug is suitable for the socket. If this is
not the case, have the plug replaced.
• the plug is efficiently earthed. The manufac-
turer declines all liability for damage deriving
from failure to observe this safety rule.

USE (MOD. CG4001)
- Make sure the drip tray is positioned correctly.
- Plug into the mains socket and adjust the thermostat (C) to the required position
(MIN/MED/MAX). The indicator light (B) comes
on. Pre-heat the appliance with the grill plates
closed.
- When the appliance has reached the required
temperature, the indicator light goes out.
- Place the food to be grilled on the grill plates.
- Place the appliance in one of the three available
positions: 1, 2 or 3.
- To turn the appliance off, rotate the thermostat
knob anticlockwise as far as it will go.
- After cooking, unplug the appliance and leave to
cool.
Never touch the plates with sharp utensils to
avoid damaging the coating.
USE (MOD. CG6001/6601)
- Make sure the drip tray is positioned correctly.
- Plug in and adjust the two thermostats (bottom
plate and top plate) to the required position
according to the food to be grilled (see table).
Procedures for preheating the appliance vary
depending on the position of the plates:
Positions 1/2: preheat the plates in the closed
position until the thermostats trip; Position 3:
preheat the plates in the open position until each
of the two thermostats trips. When the appliance is used in position 1, you are recommended
to adjust the thermostat to Max to ensure even
cooking;
- When both two plates have reached the required
temperature, the corresponding indicator light
goes out;
- Place the food to be grilled on the grill plates.
- To turn the appliance off, rotate the two thermostat knobs anticlockwise as far as it will go.
- After cooking, unplug the appliance and leave to
cool.
- To keep previously grilled food hot (with the
appliance in position 3), place the top plate thermostat in the "K" position and rest the food on
the top plate.
COOKING TIPS
- Model CG6601 only: the plates have a smooth
side to cook eggs, bacon and toast and a ribbed
side for grilling. You can choose the most suitable side for cooking by simply unhooking the
plates and re-attaching them on the required
side making sure the fat drainage guides are
towards the inside (fig. 1).
- Dry defrosted or marinated food before placing
on the grill plates.
- Add herbs and spices to the meat before
cooking, salt on serving.
• When using the "contact" position, the pieces to
be grilled should be of the same thickness to
ensure more even cooking.
• When cooking fish, the plate the fish rests on (I)
must always be oiled.
- Some examples of how to use your steak grill
are given below. The times given in the following table are indicative only. They may vary
according to the characteristics of the food (initial temperature, water content) and individual
tastes.

CLEANING
- Before cleaning the appliance, always unplug from
the mains socket and allow to cool.
- Cleaning the grill every time you use it avoids
smoke and unpleasant smell the next time you
cook.
- Using the catches (G), the grill plates can be
removed and washed in hot water or a dishwasher.
- Leave the grill plates to soak in hot water for a
few minutes to soften any solid residues left
after cooking.
- Never use utensils or abrasive cleaning products
as these could damage or scratch the special
non-stick coating.
- Replace the grill plates in the appliance only
when clean and perfectly dry, making sure they
are firmly fixed in place.
- To empty or clean the drip tray, remove by pul-
ling the handle outwards. To replace,
perform this operation in reverse, pushing it in
as far as it will go.
