FIRST USE
•
Clean the appliance. See "Cleaning and
maintenance".
•
Clean the accessories.
•
Switch on the appliance and set the temperature
to maximum. A small amount of smoke may
develop when using the appliance for the first
time. This smoke may smell unusual. This is
normal.
•
Allow the appliance to cool off completely.
ASSEMBLY
•
Remove the plug from the socket.
•
Ensure that the grill plate and the stone is
square and stable on its supports.
USE
•
Prepare the ingredients by cutting them into
small pieces and seasoning/marinating them to
taste.
•
Give the grill plate, the stone and the pans a
quick clean with a soft damp cloth.
•
Turn the temperature switch to turn on the
appliance and to set the temperature. The power
light will illuminate. Turn the temperature switch
to 'MIN' to turn off the appliance.
•
Only with first use: put a little bit of oil on the
grill plate with a soft brush or paper towel. Wait
until the oil has soaked in before removing the
excess.
•
For further use there is no need to use any more
oil.
•
Wait 20 minutes for the grill plate to reach
the set temperature. Do not begin cooking
food until the grill plate has reached the set
temperature. Actually the grill plate is already at
full temperature after 10 minutes, but the stone
needs 20 minutes.
•
Small/thin pieces of food grill better and faster
than large/thick pieces.
•
Experiment with the temperature and the
cooking time for the best results.
•
Use the pans to prepare raclette recipes, to stir
fry, or, for example, to prepare eggs or mini-
pancakes.
•
Virtually all types of food can be prepared on the
flat side of the grill plate. Use this especially for
pancakes, eggs and fish.
•
For raclette: put the pans under the grill plate.
For gourmette: put the pans under the grill
plate or on the flat surface of the grill plate.
•
Fish and meat can be prepared on the ribbed side
with the typical stripe-effect of a grill grid.
•
You can prepare all the ingredients on the stone,
but because the stone only has a channel to
avoid excess fat and moisture, we recommend
preparation of somewhat "drier" food on the
stone to prevent run-off of fat and water.
Switch the appliance off after using it, unplug it and
wait for the appliance to cool down.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
•
Clean the appliance after every use.
•
After use, turn the thermostat to 'MIN', then unplug
the appliance, wait until it has cooled down.
•
Do not use sharp objects, or acerbic or abrasive
cleaning products to clean the appliance or the
accessories. Use the spatula included to remove
cooked-on food.
•
Use kitchen towel to remove any leftover bits of
food.
•
Do not immerse the appliance in water or any
other liquid.
•
Clean the grill plate, the pans and spatulas in a
soap solution. Then rinse thoroughly with clean
water and dry.
•
The pans and spatulas may also be cleaned in
the dishwasher, but the grill plate and the stone
cannot.
•
IMPORTANT: the stone must not be immersed
in water. The stone will absorb too much water
and could burst when used again. Once it is
completely cooled off, rinse the stone under a
trickle of lukewarm water and clean it with a
scouring pad. Then dry it well. It is better not
to use washing up liquid or any other cleaning
product.
•
Wipe the base plate and the exterior of the
appliance with a soft, damp cloth.
