B Teflon coated plate
C heating element
D ON/OFF switch
E indicator light
F thermostat knob
G side guides
H drip pan
I grill rack

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 indicated on the rating plate on the bottom

• 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 manufacturer declines all liability in the event that this
important accident-prevention rule is not respected.

USE

- before turning the appliance on fill the drip pan with water (the water must ALWAYS be
between the MIN and MAX level).

- Plug into the mains socket and set the switch (D) to the ON position. The light (E) comes on.
Adjust the thermostat (F) to the required position (MIN - MED or MAX).

- before using for the first time, operate the appliance empty (with water in the drip pan)

with the thermostat at maximum for at least 15 minutes to eliminate the "new" smell and
any smoke caused by the presence of protective substances applied to the element before
transport. During this operation, ventilate the room.

- you are recommended to preheat the appliance for about 5-10 minutes before starting to
cook (start with the appliance cold only when grilling and extend the cooking times slightly).

- when you need to turn or check the meat, remove the drip pan carefully to avoid spilling the
water.

- to turn the appliance off, set the switch (D) to the OFF position. Unplug from the mains and
leave to cool down before emptying the water.

IMPORTANT: the appliance will not work if the drip pan is not inserted correctly in one of the
two guides. There is a switch in the appliance which detects the presence of the pan in order
to prevent it from operating empty.

The appliance is not intended to be operated by means of an external timer or separate
remote control system.
