Do not operate without the hotplates! Close the appliance and set to the position given on the grill dial using the rotary control: the control lamp illuminates. This extinguishes as soon as the correct temperature has been reached. When using for the first time, a slight odor and a little smoke may appear during the first few minutes of use. This is not a threat nor any evidence of malfunction of the product. In this case open the window and ventilate the room until there is no more smoke or odor.

First season the under plate. Wipe the hotplates with a paper towel before placing more food on it. Do not scratch with sharp-edged utensils! Place small, suitable trays (not included in delivery) under the grease outlets. Frozen food items must be fully defrosted and dry. Only add salt to meat and fish after grilling.
