FIRST USE OF THE MACHINE
When the machine is delivered, the steel surfaces are protected with a nylon anti-scratch lm and residuals
of glue. This lm and glue has to be removed before starting the machine. Do not use sharpening tools,
ammable or abrasive substances. The insulating materials used during the manufacturing and the residuals of
grease and glue may produce smoke during rst operation. It is necessary to start the machine outdoors, for a
minimum of 15-20 minutes before normal use.
WARNING: When you place the product on the grid to cook, it will be hot. Pay attention to cooking operations
to avoid burning dangers.
To load the product follow this procedure:
1. Place yourself in a correct position (see Figure 5), avoiding any contact with the machine;
2. Choose the correct temperature using the knob;
3. When the griller is hot, place the product and start the cooking;
4. At the end of the cooking, remove the food and residuals from the grill;
5. If the griller is inactive for a long period (one or two hours), place the knob to 0°C and unplug.
If the machine has been turned off longer than 30 min., allow at least 10 min. for it to reach cooking
temperature again. If you are not using the machine, but you think you are going to need it soon, set the
temperature at 120 F, this will allow the machine to reach cooking temperature faster.
