Assembly and setting up
WARNING! RISK OF FIRE!
► Never place the appliance beneath wall cup-
boards or next to curtains, cupboard walls or
other fl ammable objects.
► Ensure that the appliance is a suffi cient
distance away from any fl ammable materials
(e.g. curtains).
► Always place the appliance on a heat-resist-
ant surface.
1) Remove all of the parts from the box and
remove the packaging material and any
protective fi lm.
2) Clean all components as described in Chapter
"Cleaning and care". Ensure that all parts are
completely dry.
3) Lead the cable through the recess on the
underside of the base 4.
4) Place the appliance on a clean and level heat-
resistant surface. Do not place the appliance
directly next to a wall or a cupboard.
5) Place the griddle 1 on the base 4.
Before fi rst use
1) Wipe the griddle 1 with a damp cloth.
2) Lightly grease the griddle 1 with fat that is suit-
able for baking/grilling. This makes it easier to
remove any cooking residue on the griddle 1.
3) Insert the plug into a mains power socket and
set the temperature control 6 to level M. The
appliance will heat up.
4) Wait for 10 minutes.
5) Then disconnect the plug and allow the appli-
ance to cool down.
NOTE
► The fi rst time the appliance heats up, a small
amount of smoke and odour may be gener-
ated due to production-related residue. This
is completely normal and is completely harm-
less. Provide suffi cient ventilation by opening
a window, for example.
6) Thoroughly clean all component parts as de-
scribed in the section "Cleaning and care"
after it has cooled down.
7) Ensure that all parts are completely dry before
operating the appliance.
The appliance is now ready for use.
Temperature settings
The temperature control 6 can be used to set the
temperature level.
Level 0
Grill switched off
Level 0 - 2 Grill switched on;
low temperature
Level 2 - 3 Grill switched on;
medium temperature
Level 3 - M Grill switched on;
high temperature
NOTE
► Select the correct temperature level by trial
and error. The lower and medium temperature
levels are better suited for vegetables, fruits
and delicate foods. The higher temperature
levels are better for meat.
As soon as you set a temperature level, the indicator
lamp 5 comes on. When the set temperature has
been reached, the indicator lamp 5 goes off .
However, the lamp may come on and go off again at
any time. This means that the appliance is maintaining
the temperature and has heated up again a little.
