High Temperatures—Risk of Burns
CAUTION: Hot surface!
The Table-Top Grill is designed for cooking food. For this purpose, the grilling
areas are heated up to 450 °F (232 °C) at the maximum. Thus, improper hand-
ling could cause severe injuries and damage. Please keep this in mind to avoid
scalds and damage.
• The grilling area, the oil tray, frame of the grilling top, lid and housing of the appliance can
be very hot during operation and thereafter. Additionally, during preparation of your food, hot
steam and splashes could escape. Do not touch the hot surfaces with any parts or your body
or any heat-sensitive or moisture-sensitive objects during operation or when still hot. Only touch
the appliance and its parts at the handles and operating elements during operation and when
still hot. Protect your hands and arms with oven gloves. Do not leave any foreign objects on
the hot grilling plate (e.g. grilling shovels, barbecue utensils, temperature probe).
• Do not spill or pour any water on the grilling area during operation or shortly thereafter.
Water could explosively vaporize on the hot grilling plate, thus leading to risk of severe scalds
and damage.
• Do not move the appliance when still hot. Always leave the appliance and all its parts cool
down before moving the appliance, emptying the oil tray or cleaning the appliance. Do not
place the appliance on heat-sensitive surfaces, for operation or when hot.
• Even with the lid properly closed, steam could escape from the lid during operation and
shortly thereafter. Condensate could accumulate under the lid and drip, when opening the lid.
Beware of hot steam and condensate when opening the lid.
• Do not place the temperature probe on the grilling area! The cable and
handle of the temperature probe may never touch hot surfaces. Otherwise, the
temperature probe will be damaged. Only insert the tip of the temperature probe into your
food. For this, it is best to hold the temperature probe in your hand. Immediately after measu-
rement, do not place the temperature probe on heat-sensitive surfaces.
• DO NOT cook any high-proof alcoholic liquid or alcoholic foodstuffs (e.g.
mulled wine, grog) on the appliance to avoid risk of explosion and fire. The
appliance is not suited for flambéing.
Non-Stick Coating
The grilling tops of your Table-Top Grill are provided with a non-stick coating. Do not use hard
or sharp objects for scratching, stirring, or cutting on the coatings. We will not be liable for
damage to the non-stick coating, if metal utensils or similar objects have been used.
Please adhere to the following precautions:
• Before first use, wipe the non-stick coatings of the grilling tops with a little cooking oil.
Thereafter, there is no need to add any further oil for cooking.
• Do not use the grilling tops, if the non-stick coating is scratched, cracked or detached due
to overheating.
• Only use wooden or heat-resistant plastic cooking utensils with the appliance. Do not use
any spray-on non-stick coatings.
• The non-stick coatings minimise the effort of cleaning. Do not use abrasive scorers or abra-
sive cleaners for cleaning. Even stubborn residues can be removed via a soft sponge or soft
nylon brush and warm dishwater.
