OPERATION
•
Before using your appliance for the first time, take away the packaging materials and
clean the pans and the grilling surface and pancake surface thoroughly with a damp
cloth.
•
Hold the stone under running water (you can use a sponge to improve the cleaning).
Never use abrasive or cleaning products. Rinse thoroughly and let dry.
•
Before each use, oil the non-stick coated plate.
•
Place the polished side of the stone to the top. Make sure the stone and the grill-plate or
pancake plate are correctly placed on the base.
•
Oil the polished surface of the stone with a kitchen paper or with a small brush coated
with heat-resistant table oil (olive or groundnut oil). Let the oil penetrate the stone and
then take away the superfluous oil.
•
When it is first switched on, the heating element may smell and emit some smoke. This is
normal; the grease that may have adhered to the element during manufacture is burning
off. We therefore recommend that you heat up the appliance for about 10 minutes
without any food (ventilate the room during this period). This phenomenon will no more
occur in the future.
•
Always preheat the grill-plate or pancake plate on the highest level during more or less 10
minutes and the stone during more or less 25 minutes before using the appliance.
•
In order to prevent grease stains on your table cloth, don’t forget to put another, easy-
washing cloth under your appliance.
•
To switch on your appliance, after having read and observed all important safeguards,
put the plug in an earthed power outlet and put the thermostat knob in the desired
position. The pilot light will come on, indicating that the appliance is heating. When the
desired position is reached, the pilot light will go out. During use, this pilot light will come on
and off regularly. This simply means that the thermostat is regulating the desired
temperature.
Hint
: When your appliance is warming up and the raclette pans are clean, you can put them
on the appliance to warm them up but never leave raclette pans that have already been
used in the appliance, as the food residues might burn.
IMPORTANT REMARKS
•
The stone is a natural product. Small fissures can appear during the use. It is a normal
phenomenon not covered by the guarantee.
•
If the stone has been kept in a damp environment, heat it up slowly (2 to 3 hours) in an
oven at 100°C or let it two days at ambient temperature.
•
Avoid shocks when you move the stone. Also avoid thermal shocks.
•
Never place too large, too cold or frozen food on a hot stone.
•
Never sprinkle a hot stone with cold water, it could crack.
•
To avoid burns or fissures on the stone, never move a still hot stone.
•
Only place food on the stone. Never place heavy objects on it.
•
If you use soused meat, you have to know that the spices will penetrate the stone. This will
decolourise it and then give a taste to the grilled meat.
STONE GRILL AND GRILL PLATE
•
Put the raclette-grill in the middle of the table.
•
Before grilling, sprinkle the stone with salt.
•
Use only wooden or plastic utensils in order not to damage the coating.
