Danger of burns!! Remove or change the cooking
plates when the appliance has cooled down.
Positioning the grease tray
During cooking, the grease tray must be inserted in its
housing on the right side of the appliance. The grease coming
from the food is drained towards the hole in the plate and
gathered in the tray.
Please note: During cooking, check the grease tray
frequently and pull out to avoid excess liquid grease.
After cooking, dispose of the grease collected appropriately.
The grease tray is dishwasher safe.
Important! Pay attention during cooking.
To open the appliance, hold the handgrip which remains
cold. The die-cast aluminum parts become very hot, avoid
touching them during and immediately after cooking.
Before performing any operation on the appliance, leave to
cool down for at least 30 minutes.
Cook only with the grease tray in place. Do not empty the
grease tray until the appliance is completely cool. Take care
when pulling out the grease tray in order to avoid spilling the
liquid.
COOKING POSITIONS
Contact grill (closed position)
- The upper plate rests on the lower plate. This is the
starting position and also one of the cooking positions
when the appliance is used as a contact grill. The cover
automatically adjusts to the thickness of the food on the
plate. The food will thus be cooked evenly on both sides.
The contact grill is ideal for cooking hamburgers,
deboned meat and thin meat slices, vegetables and
sandwiches. The “contact” function is perfect to prepare
food rapidly and healthily. When you use the contact
grill, the food cooks quickly as it is in contact with the
plates on both sides at once (see gure 3).
The grease from the food is drained and collected by
the grooves on the plate and the hole at the back and is
collected in the grease tray.
The appliance has a special handgrip and hinge
allowing the upper plate to be adjusted according to the
thickness of the food. If you want to cook a number of
dierent types of food simultaneously using the contact
grill, the various foods should have the same thickness
to allow the cover to be closed evenly.
Open Grill
- The upper plate is level with the lower plate. The lower
and upper plates are both at the same level, forming a
large cooking surface. In this position, the appliance can
be used in barbecue mode with either the grill plate or
the griddle plate. To place the appliance in this position,
rst identify the hinge release button on the right. Hold
the handgrip with the left hand and with the right, press
the hinge release button (see gure 4).
Push the handgrip backwards until the cover rests
upside down in the at position (see gure 5).
Lifting the handgrip slightly before press the hinge
release button lightens pressure on the hinge and
facilitates the operation.
The appliance can be used as a grill/barbecue to prepare
hamburgers, steak, chicken and sh. The grill/barbecue
mode is the most versatile. The grill plates are in the
open position, doubling the cooking surface.
You can prepare a number of dierent foods on the
separate plates without mixing the avors, or cook more
