Taking it into use
Before taking the table grill into use for the first time
clean it as described in the chapter “Cleaning and
care”.
Usage / grilling may only take place with the catch-
ment pan
r
intended for the purpose.
The voltage of the power source must tally with the
details given on the rating plate of the appliance.
Handling the grill
A good and even heat distribution is assured by the
integrated heating element
y
under the grill
q
.
Cleaning is made easier by the non-stick coating,
which prevents the adhesion of grillables.
• Place the assembled stand on a level surface.
Bear in mind that there needs to be a mains power
socket in the close vicinity.
• Fill the catchment pan
r
up to the max. marking
with water (ca. 1.3 ltrs). You can thus prevent the
burning-on of fats falling from the grillables and
make the subsequent cleaning of the appliance
easier.
• Install the splatter protection shield
w
on one
side (the later rear side) of the grill bars
q
should you be grilling greasy grillables. Additio-
nally, it serves well as a windbreak. Insert the
three tenons of the splatter protection shield
w
into the holes provided on one side of the grill
bars
q
. To do this, the splatter protection shield
w
must be lightly flexed.
• Place the grill on the stand. The 4 mounting pegs
on the top plate of the stand must encroach into
the depressions on the underside of the grill.
The grill must sit firmly on the stand.
• Place the grill bars
q
on the catchment pan
r
,
such that they are firmly seated.
Notice
You can also use the grill without the stand:
Place the grill on an absolutely level and even sur-
face. The surface must be insensitive to heat.
Otherwise, it could cause damage to the surface.
• Check to ensure that the grill bars
q
are correctly
placed onto the catchment pan
r
(see Fig.
q
).
• Insert the power cable with thermostat
i
into
the appliance such that the control lamp
u
is
facing upwards. Then insert the plug into a
mains power socket.
• Adjust the thermostat
i
to the desired temperature
setting. The grill starts to warm up and the indi-
cator lamp
u
glows.
• As soon as the indicator lamp
u
goes out the
grill has reached the adjusted temperature and
is ready for use.
Notice
Subject to the ambient temperature, it can happen
that the control lamp
u
does not go out with the
thermostat setting “M”.
• After a warm-up phase of approx. 15 minutes
the grill is ready for use.
Risk of injuries
When the grill has warmed up, take hold of it ONLY
with the heat-insulated handles
t
.
