USE
Assembly
Before inserting the plug into the power socket, assemble the
appliance carefully as follows:
1) Place the drip tray (if supplied) in the base of the barbecue
(fig. 1).
2) Insert the extremities of the heating element into the slots
in the handles (fig. 2). Then press the lever (fig. 3) and attach
the control panel to the base of the barbecue as shown in
fig.4. Ensure that the control panel is correctly attached to
the base of the appliance.
A special safety device ensures that the appliance cannot be
switched on unless the control panel is correctly attached.
3) Some models feature a special rotating grilling rack, which
should be fitted as follows:
- Insert the pivot pins (A) into the eyelets (B) on the grilling
rack support (fig. 5).
- Insert the feet of the grilling rack into the slots in the handle
on the base of the barbecue.
Please note:
The pivot pins on the grilling rack are of
different dimensions. If necessary, turn the grilling rack support
so that the pivot pins fit correctly into the eyelets.
Grilling instructions
- In order to prevent overheating and to reduce smoke, fill
the drip tray or the base of the barbecue (for models not
supplied with a drip tray) with water (fig. 6) .
The water level should be approximately 5 mm. above the
“minimum” mark.
Do not pour water onto the heating element.
Top up the water level as necessary during operation.
- Press the ON/OFF switch to switch the appliance on (if the
appliance is fitted with two heating elements, press both
switches). The pilot lamp lights to show that the appliance
is in operation.
- Pre-heat the barbecue for at least 5 minutes.
- Place the food on the grilling rack. The food should be
distributed evenly over the grilling area.
- The dual-height grilling rack position makes it possible to
grill all types of food to perfection.
To grill fish and vegetables, move the sliding height controls
(located underneath the handles) forwards to raise the
grilling rack to the upper position.
For sliced fish and meat, lower the grilling rack by sliding
the height controls towards the rear of the appliance (fig.
7).
Refer to the table of grilling times and to the recipes.
Some models are fitted with two switches which control
the two separate heating elements.
When grilling small quantities of food, these can be used to
switch on a single heating element, thus saving electricity.
If these models are fitted with a rotating grilling rack and
used with one heating element only, use a fork or other
utensil to turn the food instead of turning the rack itself.
If the rotating rack is used, insert the ring into the handle
in order to hold thick foods in position while turning.
