permitted to carry out any
cleaning or maintenance
work on the appliance
unless they are supervised
and at least 8 years of age.
∙ The appliance and its power
cord must be kept well away
from children under 8 at all
times.
∙ Caution: Keep any packaging materials
well away from children – these are
a potential source of danger, e.g. of
suffocation.
∙ Before the appliance is used, the main
body as well as any attachment fi tted
should be checked thoroughly for any
defects. Should the appliance, for
instance, have been dropped onto a hard
surface, it must no longer be used: even
invisible damage may have adverse
effects on the operational safety of the
appliance.
∙ During operation, the barbecue grill
must be placed on a level, heat-resistant
surface, impervious to splashes and
stains. When grilling food with a high fat
or moisture content, splashes are not
always avoidable.
∙ Do not position the grill next to a wall or
corner, and ensure that no infl ammable
materials are stored near it.
∙ Remember that food with a high fat or
moisture content may tend to ignite;
therefore always fi ll the grill pan with
water before use. Do not connect the
grill to mains power until the grill pan
has been fi lled with water.
∙ The water helps to cool down the grill
pan, reduces the build-up of smoke, and
also facilitates cleaning.
∙ Ensure that the water level inside the grill
pan is kept between the 'Min.' and 'Max.'
markings at all times during use.
– Max. water level indicator
– Min. water level indicator
Always ensure that the water level is kept
above the 'Min.' mark. Water should be
added in good time, while ensuring that
it does not come into contact with the
heating element. Caution: Disconnect
the grill from the mains before adding
water.
∙ Before the grill is used, always check
that the heating element is correctly
fi tted in the housing and grill pan.
∙ The barbecue grill must be supervised
at all times during operation.
∙ Always bear in mind that the housing
surfaces as well as the heating element
and the grill rack become very hot during
operation. Even after the heating element
is switched off, it must not be touched
until it has suffi ciently cooled down -
there is otherwise a severe danger of
burns.
∙ To avoid the risk of electric shock, the
heating element and the power cord must
not be immersed in liquid or even allowed
to come into contact with it.
∙ Do not allow the power cord to touch any
hot parts of the appliance.
