Before use
• Before first use wash
and dry the grill.

than the MAX

For the best results,
avoid pouring water into the inner tray.
- Position the inner tray
(“Click!”) (fig. 8).
- When water needs to
be refilled during
usage this can be
done via the filling
aperture (fig. 9)
- Place the control
panel (fig. 10, 11).
- Be sure that the safety switch, located at the
bottom of the control panel, is activated when
the appliance is switched on (“Click”) (fig. 11).
- Place the grill (fig. 12, 13).
- Brush some oil onto the grill (fig. 14).

Tips
• Keep the meat and fish cold and fresh in the
refrigerator until you actually start grilling it.
• Do not use the same cutlery and the same
chopping board for raw and grilled food.
• Do not salt the meat, chicken or fish before
grilling: then too much juice will be extracted.
You can of course salt the food after grilling.
• Always use meat, chicken or fish of good
quality, cut into pieces/slices which are
1
1 ⁄
2
- 2 cm thick and which are not carved or
flattened.
• Always use the appliance with a layer of water
in the outer tray. This prevents smoke and
makes cleaning the inner tray much easier.
If necessary add water during the cooking.
Please note: Do not pour water on the heating
element! Only pour water through the special
filling aperture.
• If you wish to grill sausages, do not forget to
prick a number of holes before grilling. (This
avoids the saucage bursting which can result in
hot fat spattering and the saucages becoming
dried out.)
• Turn the food on the grill at regular intervals.
Then it will become evenly browned and will be
well-done throughout.
• It is advisable to wrap fish in aluminium foil
before grilling.
• To avoid sticking to the grill it is advisable to
pad the meat dry with a kitchen towel before
putting it on the grilling plate.
• The required grilling time is primarily
dependent upon the thickness of the meat,
chicken or fish (and not upon its weight).
Attention: Especially pork, minced meat and
fish must be very well done. Make sure that the
pieces of meat are not too thick.
• For the best grilling result indoors, we advise
you not to use the windscreen. However, you
can use the windscreen in combination with the
hood.
