Fully unwind the power cord before plugging in the appliance.

Do not use an extension lead. If you accept liability for doing so, only use an

to prevent anyone tripping over an extension cord.

WARNING:
Do not heat or pre-heat without the 2 cooking plates inside
the grill. Some foods with a skin (whole sausages, tongue, poultry, etc.)
or large pieces of meat can spit when boiling liquids become trapped.
We therefore recommend piercing them with a knife or fork before cooking.

appliance with supplied with. Keep the instructions within reach.

• Before first use, wash the plates (see paragraph 11), pour a little cooking oil onto the plates and wipe with a soft
cloth or paper kitchen towel.
• Position the power cord carefully, whether an extension is used or not, so that guests can move freely around the
table without tripping over it.
