Warning and safety instructions
Warning and safety instructions
Installation and connection
When using your appliance, follow
basic safety precautions including
the following:
Read all instructions before using
for the first time.
Be certain your appliance is
properly installed and grounded
by a qualified technician.
To guarantee the electrical safety
of this appliance, continuity must
exist between the appliance and an effective grounding system. It is imperative that this basic safety requirement
be met. If there is any doubt, have the
electrical system of the house checked
by a qualified electrician. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for
damages caused by the lack, or inadequacy of, an effective grounding system.
Correct usage
cannot be held responsible for damages caused by improper use of the
grill.
spills do not fill above the indication
mark
Do not operate the appliance untilproperly installed in the countertop.
This appliance is intended for
residential use only.
Use the appliance only for its intended purpose. The manufacturer
Never use the appliance to warm
or heat the room.
The water trough must be full when
using the appliance. To avoid
Do not switch on the appliance
when the heating element is raised.
This appliance must not be set up
or operated outdoors.
Do not connect the appliance to
the main electrical supply using an
extension cord. Extension cords do not
meet the safety requirements of this appliance.
Before servicing, disconnect the
power supply by either removing
the fuse, unplugging the unit or manually “tripping” the circuit breaker.

Warning and safety instructions
Protection from damage
Do not use any type of aluminium
products including pots, pans, and
foil on the grill. Aluminium will cause
overheating and may damage the grill
grate.
Do not drop anything on the ce-
ramic surface. Even a light object
could cause damage in certain circumstances.
Do not use a steam cleaner to
clean the appliance. Steam could
penetrate electrical components and
cause a short circuit.
In areas subject to infestation by
cockroaches or other vermin, keep
the appliance and its surroundings
clean at all times. Any damage caused
by pests will not be covered under warranty.
5
Warning and safety instructions
Protection from burns
The appliance becomes very hot
when in use. Make sure that no
one comes in contact with it. The heating element and grate may be hot even
though they are dark in color.
Do not store toys or items of inter-
est to children in cabinets above
or behind the appliance. Children
climbing onto the grill to reach these
items may become seriously injured.
Do not allow children to operate or
play with, or near, the grill.
Use only dry, heat resistant pot-
holders. Moist or damp potholders
used on hot surfaces can result in
steam burns. Do not let the potholder
touch the hot heating element. Do not
use towels or other bulky items near
the appliance.
Wear proper apparel. Loose fitting
or hanging garments should never
be worn while cooking.
Extinguish flames immediately
Replace the lava rocks regularly.
Rocks saturated with oil or fat
catch fire easily. The grill trough and
the lava rock container should be
cleaned after each use to keep them
free of oil and fat.
Never put water or ice on to a hot
grill. This can cause a serious reaction leading to injury.
Do not use water on grease fires.
Smother any fire or flame, or use a
dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
Do not store aerosols, combus-
tibles and/or any other easily
flammable materials underneath or adjacent to the grill.
Do not heat unopened food con-
tainers. Build-up pressure may
cause the container to burst and result
in injury.
Do not store items on the grill
when not in use.
Do not let cooking grease or other
flammable materials accumulate
on the appliance.
Do not leave the appliance unat-
tended while in use. Overheated
food can ignite.

Warning and safety instructions
Further safety notes
When using a portable appliance
make sure that its power cord
does not come into contact with the
cooktop.
Always make sure food is suffi-
ciently cooked or reheated. Many
factors affect the overall cooking time,
including the size and amount of food,
its temperature, and the recipe. Some
foods may contain microorganisms that
are only destroyed by thorough cooking. If in doubt, select a longer cooking
or reheating time.
Always cook pork thoroughly to en-
sure that the meat is safe to eat.
Before discarding an old ap-
pliance, remove the power cord
and any doors to prevent it from becoming a hazard.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS AND
REVIEW THEM PERIODICALLY
Throughout the manual, important
safety items will be highlighted in
boxes and should be read in conjunction with these “Warning and
Safety instructions.”

doors to prevent it from becoming a
hazard.
10
Before using for the first time
Cleaning and heating for the
first time
Before using for the first time clean the
appliance with a damp cloth and then
dry with a soft cloth.
Do not use liquid dish soap on the
ceramic surface as this can leave a
permanent blue sheen.
Metal components have a protective
coating which may give off a slight
smell the first time your new appliance
is heated.
The smell and any vapors will dissipate
after a short time and do not indicate a
faulty connection or appliance defect.

Before grilling
The grill can be used with or without
lava rocks. When cooking without lava
rocks, rising steam will keep the food
moist. When using lava rocks, cooking
results will be similar to barbecuing.
Preparing the grill:
Remove the grate, raise the heating
element, and remove the lava rock
container.
Fill the trough with water:
– up to line
when grilling without lava rocks, or
(about 2 quarts [2.5 l ])
b
The operating indicator lamp which is
left of the control knob will illuminate
when the appliance is switched on. It
goes off after the appliance is switched
off.
Safety cut-out feature
A safety cut-out switch prevents the
heating element from turning on when it
is raised.
– up to line
when grilling with lava rocks.
Replace the lava rock container, if so
desired.
Lower the heating element and replace the grate.
The grill can now be turned on.

Using the appliance
Grilling
While grilling, watch the level of
water in the trough. If necessary,
add more water.
Do not use aluminium dishes, pans,
pots or foil on the grill. Never cover
the the grill grate with aluminium
foil. Aluminium will cause overheatingand may damage the grill grate.
Correct procedure:
Preheat the grill by setting it to "12"
and allowing it to run for approximately 5 minutes.
Grill meat for a few minutes at the
highest setting to sear the outside
and seal in the juices.
After searing, set the control knob to
"9" or "10" to finish cooking the meat.
Turn the food frequently to prevent
burning.

Using the appliance
Tips on grilling
– To minimize splattering, dry moist
foods with paper towels before grilling.
– Salt meat after grilling to prevent it
from drying out.
– Marinating meats or fish before grill-
ing will often enhance their flavor.
– To help prevent the food from stick-
ing to the grate, brush un-marinated
meats with a little oil before grilling.

which the manufacturer cannot accept responsibility.
Never use strong cleaners e.g.
oven sprays, stain or rust removers.
Scouring pads and abrasive cleaning agents should only be used on
the heating element.
Do not use any sharp pointed objects which could damage the seal
between the ceramic surface and
the surrounding frame and between
the frame and the countertop.
