Operation
1. Turn the temperature knob (8) to
the desired setting. The tempera-
ture knob can be set from
0
(off)
to
5
(maximum temperature). The
indicator lamp (9) lights up while the
device is heating. As soon as the set
temperature is reached, the indicator
lamp goes out. The indicator lamp
turns on and off during use, indicat-
ing that the set temperature is being
maintained.
2. The collection tray (3) catches
excess grease and juices. Never use
the BBQ without the collection tray.
3. The BBQ‘s handles (2) are heat-
insulated. The BBQ becomes very
hot and it is therefore recommended
to use heat-resistant cooking mitts or
potholders during grilling.
4. To place food on the grill, use long-
handled cutlery made of wood or
heat-resistant plastic. Cutlery made
of metal may cause damage to the
grill plate‘s nonstick coating.
5. Flip the food to be grilled from time to
time and avoid letting it get too dark.
6. The grill is outfitted with a hot zone (5).
The hot zone gets up to 260°C and
can be used to grill foods that need
to be prepared quickly. The rest of
the grill plate (4) can be used to pre-
pare foods that need longer.
7. As soon as the food is finished being
grilled, turn the temperature knob (8) to
0
and disconnect the power plug (10)
from the outlet.
8. Remove the food from the BBQ with
heat-resistant cutlery intended for
nonstick coated dishes.
9. Let the device cool down for 20 min-
utes before moving it.
BBQing tips
Always flip food to be grilled with tongs or
a BBQing spatula and never with a fork or
other objects with sharp edges or points.
They cause damage to the grill plate‘s
nonstick coating.
Always preheat the grill plate. Do not
place any food on the BBQ until the grill
plate is sufficiently preheated. Use a low
temperature setting to slowly grill delicate
foods such as fish filets. Use a high tem-
perature setting to sear meats and close
its pores or to grill vegetables or a whole
fish.
Meats are more tender when marinated
overnight. Marinade is made from oil,
to increase moisture, vinegar, to make
meats tender, and a spice blend.
Flip fish and meats just once. Flipping
more than once is unnecessary and will
dry out the food to be grilled.
After use, turn off the device using the
temperature knob and disconnect the
power plug from the outlet. Let the device
cool down well before moving or cleaning
it.
Spread a little vegetable oil onto the grill
plate using a paper towel from time to time
to prevent foods from sticking to the sur-
face.
