In this section, you can find out how to set your
appliance. In the table, you can find the settings for
various dishes.
Grilling with water and lava stones
Note:
Fill the grill container with water before each use.
Otherwise the appliance will overheat.
The amount of water depends on whether you want to
use lava stones. The lava stones store the heat from the
grill element, leading to intense radiation of heat and
even heat distribution.
Filling with water and lava stones
1.
Remove the wire rack and fold up the grill elements.
Remove the lava stone container from the appliance.
2.
Ensure the drain valve is closed.
3.
Fill the grill's container with water.
Grilling with lava stones: 0.7 litres (bottom mark)
Grilling without lava stones: 2.5 litres (top mark)
4.
To grill with lava stones: Remove the lava stones
from the packaging and place them in the lava stone
container. Insert the lava stone container in the
appliance.
5.
Fold down the grill heating element, replace the wire
rack.
The grill is ready to use.
Setting the grill
The dial allows you to adjust the grill's heat setting. The
dial has no increments – the heat setting is infinitely
variable. The indicator light will light up when the grill
has been switched on.
Turn the dial to 0 to switch off the appliance.
Note: .
The grill regulates the temperature by switching
the grill element on and off.The grill element may also
switch on and off at the highest setting.
Preheating the grill
Do not place the food to be grilled under the grill until
the preheating time has elapsed. Use the information
provided in the grill table to guide you. Always preheat
the grill at setting 9.
Preheating takes between 8 and 12 minutes.
Note: .
Preheat the grill without food under it for no
longer than 8-12 minutes.Leaving the grill to heat up for
prolonged periods of time may cause the appliance to
shut down (overheating protection). Switch off the
appliance and allow it to cool down before switching it
back on again.
Overheating protection
The overheating protection switches the grill heating off
when the grill overheats. When the grill has cooled
down sufficiently, grill heating switches on again
automatically.
Adding water
:
Warning – Risk of scalding!
If water touches the hot wire grilling rack or grill element
during topping up, hot steam will be generated. Do not
reach over the grill while topping up and do not pour
water over the hot components.
If there is not enough water in the grill pan, the
overheating protection shuts down the appliance. It is
therefore important that you keep an eye on the amount
of water in the grill pan, and that you add more water if
required.
Note: –
To add more water, there is no need to remove
the wire rack or to fold up the grill element. Before
adding more water, allow the grill to cool down
sufficiently.
Grilling with or without lava stones: 0.7 litres
