If the power supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer
or its after sales service in order to avoid any danger.
Do not use an extension lead. If you accept liability for doing so, only use an
extension lead which is in good condition, has a plug with an earth connection
and is suited to the power rating of the appliance. Take all necessary precautions
to prevent anyone tripping over an extension cord.
Always plug the appliance into an earthed socket.
Make sure that the electric power supply is compatible with the power rating
and voltage indicated on the bottom of the appliance.
Use a sponge, hot water and washing up liquid to clean the cooking plates.
Never immerse the appliance, its power cord or plug in water or any other liquid.
WARNING:
Do not heat or pre-heat without the 2 cooking plates inside the grill.

with your appliance, and keep them within reach.

• Before first use, wash the plates (see paragraph 5), 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.
• Cooking fumes may be dangerous for animals which have a particularly sensitive respiratory system, such as birds. We
advise bird owners to keep them away from the cooking area.
• Always keep the appliance out of the reach of children.

an oven, on the gas ring or electric hot-plate, etc.).

with the appliance or bought from an Approved Service Centre.
