Instructions
CAUTION: Avoid damage to the non-stick
coated grill surfaces!
• Only use wooden or Teflon spatula.
• Do not use pointed objects (e.g. knife, fork)
on the grill surface.
• Do not use plastic utensils. They can melt.
• The top grill plate is fitted with a compensating
joint. This enables the optimal contact of the
top grill plate with the food.
• The top grill plate can also be folded up by
180°. By doing so, you get double the grill
surface and you can use the appliance as a
table grill.
• The non-stick coated grill surfaces enable
dishes to be prepared without the use of fat.
• If you want to use oil ensure that it is highly
heatable, such as sunflower oil. Do not use
olive oil or butter, since they start smoking
already at low temperatures.
• A beep will sound when the power cord is con-
nected to the mains.
• A beep will sound whenever a button is
pressed.
• The appliance has two control panels through
which the functions of the lower and the upper
grill plates can be set separately.
• The display shows you the settings.
• If no setting has been made on the control
panel for 2 hours, the appliance will turn off
automatically.

automatically turned off and the display shows
the setting "000 000", the appliance will still be

Electrical connection
Power rating
The appliance can consume 2000 W of power
in total. At this power rating, we recommend a
separate connection with fuse protection via a
16 A domestic circuit breaker.
CAUTION: Overload
Do not use any extension cords or multiple
sockets as this appliance is too powerful.
Connection
• Before you plug the power plug into the power
outlet, ensure that the mains voltage corre-
sponds with that of the appliance. You can find
information about this on the rating plate.
• Only connect the appliance to a properly
installed earthed socket.
Before initial use
1. Clean the grill plates as described under
"Cleaning". Re-insert the grill plates.
2. Close the contact grill. Insert the fat collection
tray (5) on the back of the grill.
3. Operate the appliance with the closed grill
plates for about 10 minutes without any food
(see "Operation"). To do so, set the tempera-
ture of both plates to 220°C.
NOTE:
This process normally produces a small
amount of smoke. Ensure adequate ventila-
tion.
