INSTRUCTION FOR USE
When using the appliance for the first time
Remove all packaging and labels from the plate. Before throwing
the packing material away, make sure you have removed all
parts of the new appliance. We recommend you keep the box
and packing to re-use in the future.
Please note:
the grease drip cups are outside the
polystyrene insert.
Before use, clean the base, cover and dials with a damp cloth to
remove dust accumulated during transport.
Clean the cooking plates, grease drip cups and cleaning tool
thoroughly. The plates, grease drip cups and spatula are
dishwasher safe.
Contact grill (use the grill plate)
The contact grill is ideal for cooking hamburgers, deboned meat
and thin meat slices, vegetables and sandwiches.
The “contact” function is perfect to prepare food rapidly and
healthily. When you use the contact grill, the food cooks quickly
as it is in contact with the plates on both side at once (see figure).
The grease from
the food is drained
and collected by
the grooves on the
plate and the hole
at the corner.
When the appliance
is used in the “contact” position, we recommend using the grill
plates. Rest the cover evenly on the food until the required
cooking temperature is reached.
The appliance has a special handgrip and hinge allowing the
cover to be adjusted according to the thickness of the food.
Thinly sliced potatoes and very thick steaks can be prepared with
equally perfect results. If you want to cook a number of different
types of food simultaneously using the contact grill, the various
foods should have the same thickness to allow the cover to be
closed evenly.
