Thoroughly clean the appliance and accessories.
1
2 Take the lava stones out of the plastic wrapping
and pour them into the lava stone trough.
3 Tilt down both heating elements. The heating
elements must lie flat.
4 Place the cast grill onto the heating elements and
heat up the grill on level 9 for some minutes. This
will eliminate any ‘newness’ smells and soiling.
Do not close the appliance cover until the appliance
has cooled down completely. Do not operate the
appliance with the cover closed. Do not use the
appliance cover for placing objects or for keeping
things warm.
Overheating protection
To protect the appliance and the furniture, the grill
switches the heating elements off automatically when
overheated. After having cooled down, the appliance
switches on again.
Operation with the cast roaster (special accessory)
The cast roaster is not included in the scope of
delivery. You can order the cast roaster from your
specialist dealer (order number AM 060 000).
The cast roaster is particularly suitable for preparing
chopped or liquid foods, vegetables, sweets and egg
dishes.
Note: Do not take out the lava stone trough and the
lava stones when operating the grill with the cast
roaster.
Grilling with the cast roaster:
1
Take off the cast grill.
2 Carefully place the cast roaster on the appliance. 3 Turn both control knobs to level 9. Preheat the
grill for 5 - 6 minutes.

Brush some oil onto the cast roaster and place
the food onto the roaster.
Switching on
Turn the control knob to level 9. The operating light
goes on. Preheat the grill for 4 - 5 minutes.
After preheating, turn the control knob to the required
level and place the food on the grill.
Note: The appliance features independently
controlled heating elements. This allows it to
simultaneously grill foods which need different grill
settings.

Turn the control knob to 0. The operating light goes
off.
ã=Risk of burns!

Tips and tricks
▯ Always preheat the grill. In this way, the intensive
heat radiation will seal the surface of the grilled
food and juice cannot leak.
▯ To avoid drying out of the surface and to improve
the taste, lightly brush grilled food with heat-resistant oil (e.g. peanut oil). Make sure you do
not use too much oil as otherwise the oil may flare
up or smoke heavily.
▯ Always grill meat unsalted. Otherwise, meat juice
and soluble nutrients might leak and be lost.
▯ Place the food directly on the cast grill. Do not
use aluminium foil or grilling trays.
▯ Turn grilled pieces over as soon as they can be
removed easily from the grill. If meat sticks to the
grill, the fibres are destroyed and juice leaks out.
▯ Do not pierce the meat while grilling it. It may lose
its juice.
▯ Avoid pickled foods such as boiled ham and
smoked pork etc. otherwise a substance may be
produced that is harmful to health.
▯ Notch cutlets several times on the bone and in the
fat layer so they do not curve during grilling.
▯ Do not remove the fatty layer (e.g. on a cutlet)
until after grilling as otherwise the meat will lose
juice and aroma.
▯ Poultry will become crispy brown if you coat it
with butter, salty water or orange juice towards
the end of the grilling time.
▯ Season fruit to taste after grilling with honey,
maple syrup or lemon juice.
▯ You can precook vegetables with a long cooking
time (for example corn on the cob).
▯ Place fish fillet on the grill with the skin down.
Coat the skin with oil in order to avoid it sticking
to the grill.
▯ Serve grilled food hot. Grilled food will become
tough if you keep it warm.
