cOOKing On the BurnerS
1. You can use the burners just as you would use a conventional stove or hotplate for cooking and
frying in pots and pans.
2. You can use either of the burners or both at the same time.
3. Switch on the burner you wish to use by setting the corresponding selector switch to the desired
setting between 1 and MAX.
4. Always use pots with a flat bottom to ensure good contact with the surface of the burner. Prefe-
rably, the bottom of the pot should have the same diameter as the burner.
5. After use, immediately set the temperature control to 0.
6.
Unplug the appliance from the power supply.
7. After being switched off, the burner will remain hot for some time. The residual heat can be used
to keep food warm, for example.
8. You can use both burners while the oven is in use. However, we recommend using only one bur-
ner when the oven is in use, to prevent overloading the main fuse.
thawing
1. You can use the compact cooker for thawing out meat, poultry, bread and rolls.
2. Insert the baking sheet/drip pan at the bottom level.
3. Insert the grill grate at the second level from the bottom.
4. Place the frozen food either on the grill grate or in a heat-proof dish and place the dish on the
grill grate.
5. For thawing, we recommend the lowest temperature setting (about 100 °C) to prevent the food
from drying out.
6. Switch on top and bottom heat. As soon as the desired temperature is reached, the indicator
lamps for the temperature and function go out. As soon as the appliance begins heating again,
the indicator lamps light up again.
warming/criSping
1. The compact cooker is ideal for warming/crisping bread and rolls (also frozen).
2. Pre-heat the appliance about 5 minutes with top and bottom heat at 200 °C.
3. Insert the baking sheet or the grill grate at the top level.
4. Place the baked goods on the baking sheet or grill grate and warm/crisp as desired.
BrOwning
1. Insert the baking sheet or the grill grate with the food to be browned at the third level from the
bottom.
2. Set the desired temperature. For fast browning we recommend 250 °C.
3. Switch on top and bottom heat.
4. When browning you should check the food at short intervals to prevent it from burning.
