Warning and Safety Instructions

Warning and Safety Instructions
Warning:
When using your Electric Grill, fol­low basic safety precautions includ­ing the following:
Read all instructions before using the grill.
Use the grill only for its intended purpose.
Do not use the unit unless all parts
are properly in place according to the installation and operating instruc­tions.
Be sure your appliance is properly
installed and grounded by a quali­fied technician or electrician.
Before servicing, disconnect the
power supply by removing the fuse or tripping the circuit breaker.
The electrical safety of this ap-
pliance can only be guaranteed when continuity is complete between the appliance and an effective ground­ing system. It is imperative that this basic safety re­quirement is 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 damage caused by the lack or inadequacy of an effective grounding system.
Do not connect the appliance to
the main electrical supply using an extension cord. Extension cords do not guarantee the required safety of the ap­pliance.
Never use the grill to warm or heat
the room.
When using an electrical outlet
near the grill, make sure that the power cord of the appliance does not come into contact with the heating el­ements of the grill.
Do not allow children to operate or
play with or near the grill.
Keep all toys stored away from the
appliance to prevent injury to curious or playful children.
Please remember that, in use, the
grill and/or griddle will become hot. Ensure that children do not touch them.
Do not store items on the ap-
plaince when not in use.
Do not let cooking grease or other
flammable materials accumulate on the grill or lava rocks.
Never leave the grill unattended
when cooking with oil or fat. Very hot oil can cause a fire.
Allow sufficient time for the ap-
pliance to cool before touching or exposing surface areas to flammable materials.
Wear proper apparel – Loose-fit-
ting or hanging garments should never be worn while using the ap­pliance.

Warning and Safety Instructions
Warning and Safety Instructions
Do not attempt to repair or replace
any part of the appliance unless specifically recommended in this ma­nual. All other servicing should be re­fered to a qualified technician.
Do not use water on grease fires.
Smother any fire or flame, or use a dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
Always cook pork thoroughly to en-
sure that, in the event of trichina, all bacteria will be killed and the meat is safe to eat.
Do not store items of interest to
children in cabinets above or be­hind the grill – children climbing on the grill to reach these items could be seri­ously injured.
Do not use a steam-cleaner to
clean the electric-grill. The steam could penetrate to electrical components and cause a short circuit.
Disposal of discarded appliances
Before disposing of an old ap-
pliance, turn it off at the main power connection and disconnect and remove the appliance cord. This is in­tended to prevent the discarded ap­pliance from becoming a hazard.
Text highlighted in boxes is of par­ticular importance and should be read in conjunction with the Warn­ing and Safety instructions.

Operation

Operation
The grill is divided into two heating areas, each regulated by its own en­ergy control. When the controls are turned on, the corresponding indicator lamp will illuminate. The power of the heating elements can be freely ad­justed.
Turning the grill on
The grill will turn on when a setting is selected.
The controls can be turned either clock­wise or counter clockwise.
The indicator lamp will illuminate.
As you increase from setting 1-12, the heating element will become pro­gressively hotter and the selected temperature will be automatically controlled.
On setting 12, the heating element is at maximum power.
Grilling and keeping food warm
Separate control of the two grilling zones make it possible to grill meat on one area and keep already grilled food hot on the other area.
See the chart on page 9 for a more de­tailed description of which setting is recommended for which food.
The grill comes with two removable stainless steel racks. By turning the racks over, it is possible to grill at two different heights. Select:
the low rack position for flat items of food.
the high rack position for larger items of food which take longer to cook.
After grilling: keeping food hot
To turn the grill off:
Turn the controls to setting ”0“. The indicator lamps will go out.
If there is heavy soiling on the heating elements:
Turn the controls to setting ”12“. Any food remains should be com­pletely burnt off in about 10 minutes.
Turn the controls back to setting ”0“. Should any residue remain, it can be removed with a wire brush once the heating elements have cooled.
For example, sausages can be grilled and then kept hot.

Grilling

Grilling over lava rocks
Before cooking, remove the grill racks and raise the heating elements. Take the lava rocks out of their bag and put them into the lava rock tray.
We recommend pre-heating the el­ements at setting ”12“ for approx. 5 minutes. This will allow the food to cook using heat radiated by the lava rocks.
Meat can be lightly brushed with oil be­fore grilling.
If you wish to add herbs to the food while grilling, they can be sprinkled di­rectly onto the meat or onto the lava rocks, so the aroma reaches the food.
As the lava rocks absorb the fat which drips onto them, they will eventually become saturated. When the stones become dark, they should be changed.
Smoke forms when fat drops onto hot lava rocks. With a DA 8 extractor situ­ated next to the grill, the smoke can be removed from the atmosphere.
Grilling
Grilling over the water trough
Before turning on the heating elements:
remove the lava rock tray from the grill.
First check that the drain valve underneath the grill is closed, then fill the trough up to the lower rim with approx. 1/2 gallon of hot water.
We recommend pre-heating the el­ements at setting ”12“ for approx. 5 minutes. This will allow the food to be cooked by steam, as well as heat from the grill. The trough will also be easier to clean.
Meat can be brushed with oil before being grilled.
Drops of fat will be cooled immediately in the water trough, so that they cannot catch fire.
When grilling, monitor the level of water in the trough; if necessary, carefully add more water.
After grilling, drain out the water and oil through the drain valve (see ”Cleaning and Care“).

Cleaning and Care

Grill racks
The grill racks can be washed by hand or in a dishwasher.
If, over time, the racks become brown, the residue can be removed with a stainless steel cleaner.
Grill Elements
After grilling, remaining meat and fat can be burnt off the heating element.
Turn the control to setting ”12“.
Cleaning and Care
Be careful of hot water! If necess­ary, add cold water to cool it down.
Place a heat resistant container be­neath the drain valve.
To open the valve, turn the lever 90° clockwise.
To close it, turn the lever counter clockwise as far as it will go.
After draining, remember to close the valve.
CAUTION: “Burning off” the el­ements may cause fat which has ac­cumulated in the lava rocks to burn with an open flame.
Be careful when using a DA 8 ex­tractor or vent hood. Do not leave the grill unattended during this cleaning process! Any food remains should be com­pletely burnt off after about 10 minutes. Remove any remaining residue with a wire brush, once the heating elements have cooled.
Grill interior
After grilling over the water trough, the liquid should be drained out of the grill via the drain valve.
The grill interior should be cleaned with hot water and dishwashing liquid.
Do not use abrasive cleaning agents or caustic cleaners.
Control panel / Control knobs
Do not use any scouring agents or pads on the knobs or control panel, as these could damage the finish.
Clean the control knobs and the control panel with hot sudsy water. After cleaning, rub dry with a soft cloth.
