BEFORE FIRST USE
●
Before using your contact grill for the first time, please remove all potential
advertisement stickers and labels (except for the type plate).
●
Set the height slider to the OPEN position and open the grill.
●
Wipe the grill plates with a moist towel and subsequently dry them.
●
Make sure that the grease drip tray is pushed all the way into the appliance base.
●
Make sure that the grill plates are correctly locked into the upper and lower part
of the grill (see description on page 81).
●
Make sure that the temperature control is set to MIN.
●
Place the grill on a stable, even, dry and heat as well as moisture resistant work
surface. Make sure that you keep at least 20 cm of space between the appliance
and the next item to the left and right.
●
Unwrap the power cord completely and plug the power plug into a suitable
power outlet.
●
Switch the appliance on with the ON/OFF button on the appliance back side, the
red function light of the button and the red control light next to POWER light up.
●
Heat the grill up for 5 minutes on the highest temperature.
●
After these 5 minutes, set the temperature control to MIN, switch the appliance
off with the ON/OFF button and pull the power plug.
●
Let the appliance cool down. Wipe the cool grill plates clean with a moist towel
and subsequently dry them.
Note:
When the appliance heats up for the first time, some smoke might develop.
This is caused by the protection layer on the heating elements and grill plates. This
process is completely harmless and disappears by itself after a short period of time.
The grilling performance is not impaired by this.
How to remove resp. install the grill plates
●
Your grill is equipped with
two
release buttons
for the grill plates.
With them, you can separately remove
the upper and lower grill plates for
cleaning.
●
Your grill must be absolutely cool before you remove the grill plates. Set
the height slider to the OPEN position. Open the upper grill plate with the
metal handle so that it is positioned at an angle of approx. 90°.
●
To remove the lower grill plate,
push the release button on the left
appliance side inwards and simultane-
ously remove the lower grill plate from
the appliance.
●
To remove the upper grill plate,
lower it to an angle of approx. 45°
above the lower grill plate. Tilt the
upper grill plate towards you with the
handle (I) so that you can easily reach
the upper release button. Press the
release button inwards and simultane-
ously hold your hand under the upper
grill plate, because it comes loose right
away and falls down. Now, you can
remove the upper grill plate.
●
To reinstall the grill plates,
proceed
exactly the other way around: Put the
grill plates into position so that the flat
ends are placed under the brackets on
the back and push the front of the
plates down into the casing. You can
hear a clicking sound when the plates
have locked into place.
Caution:
Always make sure that the grill plates are correctly installed and
locked into place before starting to use the appliance
