Instructions for the user
Maintenance
Before doing any operation, cut off the electricity from
the apparatus.
In order to give your equipment a long life, it is vital to
thoroughly clean it all over, remembering the following
points:
- the steel and/or painted parts must be cleaned using
suitable products (available on the market) which are
not abrasive or corrosive. Avoid products based on
chlorine (bleach, etc);
- avoid leaving acids or alkalis on the work surface
(vinegar, salt, lemon-juice, etc.)
!
CHARCOAL OR SIMILAR COMBUSTIBLE FUEL
MUST NOT BE USED WITH THIS APPLIANCE.
Installation
All the operations relating to the installation (electrical
connection) must be carried out by qualified personnel
according to the regulations in force.
Use (Fig.1)
The barbecue allows you to grill your food fast.
Using the control knob on the front panel, you can
turn on the heater that can cook faster or more slowly,
according to the settings from 1 to 11. It works as a
grill by turning the knob to position 11. You will notice
a slight click that shows that the thermostat has been
turned off, and the heating coil soon gets red hot.
This does not mean that you cannot get very good
grilling results from the intermediate positions. On the
contrary, these positions are recommended for cooking
delicate dishes, or to cook the food evenly overall, and
right into the middle as well.
The lava rock in the tray is provided to absorb the drips
of oil or grease that are produced during cooking. As
well, it accumulates heat during the start-up phase of
the heater, and so gives you a more constant grilling
performance, which is very similar to that obtained from
charcoal.
Water can be put into the tray, instead of the lava rock.
(We suggest a depth of about 3 cm or one inch.) The
presence of water in the tray eliminates unpleasant
cooking smells, without reducing the performance of
the barbecue in any way.

preheating the lava rock for at least 10 minutes at
position 1. This is particularly advisable when you turn
on the equipment for the first time, because it allows
you to reduce the risk, during cooking, of the food
absorbing smells that the heating coil produces when it
is first switched on.
