minutes, turn the thermostat (9) to "●" in order to switch off the contact grill. Now disconnect the
mains plug from the socket and let the contact grill cool down. Then clean the contact grill again as
described in the section "Cleaning".
First use
Place the contact grill on a flat, heat-resistant surface. If the surface is sensitive, place a heat-
resistant board under the contact grill.
There is a risk of burns! The temperature of the accessible surfaces may be very high when the
device is operating. Only touch the handle (1) or the thermostat (9) of the contact grill.
The accessible surfaces of the contact grill can become very hot. Use pot holders or oven
gloves to prevent burns. There is a risk of injury.
Never use metallic objects to remove or turn food that you are grilling as they can damage the
coating of the grill plates (3 and 6). Use a heat-resistant plastic or wooden spatula instead.
Place the food to be grilled directly on the grill plates (3 and 6). Never use tin foil, a plate or
similar as a base.
Before using the contact grill for the first time, make sure that the grease tray (10) is correctly
inserted. The grease tray (10) must be emptied in time to prevent it from overflowing.
Optimising outward flow of grease
There are 2 fold-out feet (see arrows in the
adjoining figure) at the rear of the bottom
grill plate (6). Fold them out when you are
preparing food with a high fat content. This
raises the front of the unit slightly and
allows the resulting grease to flow more
easily into the grease tray (10).
In "single-sided grilling" mode, you can
place the the top grill plate (3) slightly at an
angle with light pressure (see arrow) to
ensure the grease flows easily.
