5. OPERATING THE APPLIANCE  FORTHE FIRST TIME (Fig. 1)

Preparing the unit

The unit can be used in two ways.

The grilling plate 

(e)

 with the grooved sur-

face is suitable for the typical grilling of 

steaks, cutlets or the like. 

The frying plate 

(a)

 with the smooth surface 

is used to fry shellfish, eggs, sliced vegeta-

bles or the like.

 Select the relevant plate for the cooking 

process and turn it to face upwards (

.

•

Push the tray below the plate into the 

slot provided for it (

.

Note:

Allow enough space between the wall 

and the unit to allow air to circulate better.

hot fat!

Only touch the unit at the special handles.

Before turning the unit over, first pull the

6. Operation (Fig. 2-9)

Switching on the unit

•

Plug the thermostatic plug 

(c)

 into the 

unit socket until it clicks. Connect the 

unit to the mains 

(5)

.

•

Set the temperature regulator to the 

desired temperature level 

(6)

. 

The heater indicator light stays on for as 

long as the heater is in operation.

Note:

 As a result of the production process, 

a small amount of smoke may be given off 

the first time the unit is used.

The heating-up time is around 4-6 minutes, 

depending on the temperature level that 

was set. Once the desired temperature has 

been reached, the heating indicator light 

goes out. Then the grilling plate or frying 

plate can be filled with food for cooking 

(7)

.

Note:

 The heating indicator light comes on 

in each heating-up phase until the tempera-

ture has been reached.

Temperature regulator

The temperature regulator 

(d)

 is used to 

vary the temperature of the cooking plate.  

If you wish to use the highest temperature 

set the temperature to “MAX” and allow 

the heating indicator light to come on and 

go out several times. This produces a more 

even temperature for the cooking plate.
