Safety precautions
Safety precautions
• When in use, never leave the appliance unattended.
• Always make sure that the appliance is kept out of the reach of children.
• We advise you not to open the casing or undertake any repairs of the auto­matic grill & bake oven. By failing to observe this rule, you risk your safety and the warranty may become inva­lid. In case the grill & bake oven is found to be defective, get it repaired only by the shopkeeper’s service personnel or an authorised technician.
• Do not use the appliance if you notice any damage to the appliance or to the power cord. In such a situation get the appliance repaired by a qualified technician.
• Make sure that no fluids enter into the casing of your grill & bake oven. Do not expose the appliance to humidity and do not use it outdoors. Moreover, do not keep any objects filled with fluids such as vases on the appliance. It may cause fire accidents or electrical shocks. If any fluid accidentally enters into the casing of the appliance, remove the plug from the power socket and get it repaired.
• When in operation, avoid placing the automatic grill & bake oven directly next to any easily inflammable material, like kitchen towels, pothol­ders and so on. Never attempt to dry textiles or other objects on, above or inside the appliance. This can lead to fire hazards.
• Never touch the heating elements or the glass door when the grill & bake oven is still operating or before it has cooled down completely. During the operation do not touch anything inside the grill & bake oven. Wait till the appliance has cooled down, otherwise you may sustain serious burn injuries.
• When in use, the casing and the glass door may become extremely hot. Hence always use a potholder or kitchen gloves to open the door of the oven. Otherwise, you may sustain serious burn injuries.
• After use, first allow your grill & bake oven to cool down completely before storing it away.
• Never touch the appliance, power cord or plug with wet hands as this may cause a severe electrical shock.
• Always hold the plug to pull it out of the socket to remove the power cord and not the power cord itself.
• Do not crease or crimp the power cord.

Installation
Place the appliance on a firm, flat and
heat-resistant base. Make sure that the area surrounding the appliance is adequately ventilated.
Fire hazard
There must be a clearance of at least 10 cm between the back of the appliance and the wall, at least 10 cm above the top and 5 cm each on the sides. Therefore, do not place the appliance, for example, in a shelf or a narrow space. Lack of sufficient ventilation for the grill & bake oven can cause a fire or damage the appliance.
Fire hazard
Place the grill & bake oven only on a firm, flat and heat-resistant base. Failing to do so can cause fire hazards or damage the appliance. The appliance may leave permanent marks, if placed on a soft surface.
Danger of electrical shock
Do not place the appliance directly next to a water source, for example, near washbasins, washtubs or in humid cellars. Such locations can be dangerous due to electrical shocks.
Do not lean or pla-
ce articles on the glass door as this would result in damage to the hinges.

Starting to use the appliance
Remove the automatic grill & bake
electric oven and all the accessories from the packing.
Danger of contusion
While opening or closing the door, do not keep your hand at the door hinges. Your hand may sustain injuries due to contusion.
Before operating the appliance for
the first time, remove all traces of the packaging material from the applian­ce and all accessories. Wipe the accessories clean using lukewarm water and mild liquid soap solution and wipe them dry.
Wipe the appliance casing gently with
a wet cloth and allow it to dry.
When the appliance is fully dry inside
and outside, connect the power plug to an available wall socket (230V AC, ~ 50 Hz).
Now switch the appliance on without
the accessories and without placing any grilling or baking items in it. Keep the appliance door fully open.
Set the temperature control knob
to 250°C. Set the main switch to Upper or Lower or Upper & Lower heat.
Set the timer switch to 15 minutes.
Because the new heating elements
are slightly greased, you may notice an odd smell when the appliance is used for the first time. This is harm­less and will vanish after a while. Open the window and ensure there is enough ventilation.
Once the appliance has automatically
switched off, set the main switch to OFF position.
Remove the power cord from the
socket and wait till the appliance has cooled down completely.
Finally, clean the inside area with a
slightly wet cloth and wipe it dry.
Switching off and storing away
Switching off
Set the main switch and the timer
switch to OFF position. Pull the mains plug out of the plug socket.

Operation
Grilling and baking
Remove the metal grating and the
baking tray from the oven. If necessary, spread a wax paper on them or apply butter or oil to the baking tray .
Place the items to be grilled or baked
on the grating or the baking trayand slide it into one of the railings.
Make sure that there is sufficient distance between the grilling and baking items as well as the inside walls and the heating elements of the appliance.
If you wish to use the grill & bake
oven in baking mode, close the glass door .
If you wish to grill foodstuffs on the
grating , leave the glass door slightly opened. When you close the door slowly, it would stop at this posi­tion before completely closing.
Using the temperature control knob ,
select the desired temperature. In the grilling mode, always select the maxi­mum temperature level (250 °C).
Finally, using the main switch  select
Upper heat (for au gratin), Lower heat (for cakes) or Upper & Lower heat (for pizza). For grilling items, turn the main switch  to Upper heat.
Using the timer switch set the
desired grilling or baking time.
Maximum grilling or baking time is 60 minutes.
If the cooking time for your grilling or
baking items is less than 25 minutes, first set the timer switch to 60 minutes and then set it to the desired grilling or baking time.
If you need to preheat the oven, add
this time to the actual cooking time.
The pilot light  indicates that your grill & bake oven is switched on. The timer switch now moves in the anti-clockwi­se direction to the OFF position (zero).
The appliance is automatically swit-
ched off when the set time runs out. If you wish to switch off the appliance earlier, turn the timer switch back to the OFF position. Turn function switch to the OFF position and pull the mains plug out of the plug socket.
You will hear a bell tinkle and the pilot lamp is turned off.

Even after the appliance has swit-
ched off, the timer switch may continue to run for a while.
Always use the enclosed handle to
pull the grating or the baking trayout. To remove the grating , use
the small hook on the handle for hoo­king into the grating. To remove the baking tray from the appliance, use the large hook on the handle to hold on to the edge of the baking tray .
If you have finished grilling or baking
foodstuffs, turn the main switch to the OFF position. Pull the mains plug out of the plug socket. Allow the ap­pliance to cool down before you undertake to clean or use it again.
Once your grill & bake oven has
reached its set temperature, the hea­ting elements or the fan switch off occasionally in order to maintain the set temperature.
Grilling and baking with hot air convection
If you wish to use hot air convection for baking or grilling, normally you may avoid pre-heating the grill & bake oven. The cooking and browning results are more uniform with the use of air circula­tion and you can also simultaneously fit the Grill and Baking Automat with a ba­king plate and two chromed grills.
Follow the instructions given in the recipes for preparations when using the hot air convection.
Press the tappet switch for the hot
air convection into position 1.
The fan inside the grill & bake oven is now in operation. The remaining steps are same as for gril­ling and baking without convection.
