• Observe the following when setting up the appliance:
Place the appliance on a heat-resistant, stable and even surface (no varni-
shed surfaces, no table cloths etc.)
Place it out of the reach of children.
Leave a ventilation distance of at least 10 cm to all four sides and 1 m to
the top in order to prevent damage due to heat or fat splatters and to grant
that your work area is unobstructed. Ensure a free air circulation.
Never operate the appliance in the vicinity of heat sources (ovens, gas flame
etc.) or in explosive environments where flammable liquids or gases are
located.
Caution – Risk of fire!
This appliance is not intended for installation into
worktops.
• Do not use the appliance as space heater.
• Always unplug the appliance after use to ensure a safe switch-off.
Initial use and grilling
• Wipe the surfaces with a damp cloth and dry carefully before using the appliance for the first time.
• Ensure that the fat collecting channel is inserted in the appliance.
• Connect the appliance to the mains.
1. Switching on
• The red “operation” LED above the main switch flashes, the appliance is ready for use and in waiting mode.
• Touch the main switch until you can hear the acoustic signal. The red “operation” LED glows and the
display shows a flashing “0” as long as the grill surface is cold. The grill is now in standby-mode.
•
NOTE:
Should the grill plate still be hotter than 60 °C due to previous usage, the actual temperature is
displayed instead of “0”.
• If there is no further activation within 60 seconds, the display goes out and the control unit will switch
back from stand-by to the waiting mode.
2. Setting the grill temperature and heating-up
• Press the “+” or “-” touch key in the standby mode. The control unit changes to the setting mode and
the suggested temperature of “180 °C” is displayed when initially switching the appliance on.
•
NOTE:
If the appliance was not disconnected from the power supply since its previous operation, the
former grill temperature is displayed as suggested temperature instead.
• The desired grill temperature can be set using the “+” or “-” touch key. The temperature can be
regulated in steps of 10 °C from 80 °C to 280 °C.
• If no other touch key is activated within 5 seconds, there is an acoustic signal, the “Heating” LED spot
(next to the grill temperature) goes on. Now the appliance is in operating mode and will start heating
automatically.
• As soon as the unit has heated up to the set grill temperature the first time, you will hear an acoustic
signal and the “Heating” LED spot goes out. The electronic control keeps the grill temperature
automatically on the set level.
