INSTALLATION
•Before using, check that the appliance has not been damaged during transport.
•Install the appliance on a flat surface, and out of the reach of children, as some parts of the
appliance reach very high temperatures during operation.
•Before inserting the plug in the outlet, check that:
- the power of the outlet corresponds to the value indicated on the rating plate applied to the
accessory plug .
- the outlet has a minimum rating of 15 A.
- the outlet is suitable for the plug, otherwise replace it.
- the outlet is suitably grounded.
- the manufacturer declines all liability if this instruction is not respected.
OPERATION
Before using the appliance, remember to pour some water in the grill base.
Do not exceed the max. recommended level.
Insert the accessory plug in the relative housing.
Ensure that the accessory plug is fully inserted, otherwise the appliance will not work.
Insert the plug in the outlet, the indicator light on the accessory plug will turn on to indicate that the heating ele-
ment is in operation.
For first use, operate the appliance for at least 5 minutes and air the room, in order to eliminate the "new smell".
ATTENTION: remember to check periodically the water level in the grill base and to fill it to the recommen-
ded level.
POLARIZED PLUG
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). As a safety feature, this plug will fit
in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not
fully fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat the safety feature.
WARNING: IMPROPER USE OF THE GROUNDING PLUG CAN RESULT IN A RISK OF ELECTRIC
SHOCK.
SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS
-Ashort power cord is provided to reduce risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping
over a longer cord.
-Longer, detachable power supply cords or extension cords are available and may be used if
care is exercised in their use.
-If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating should be at least as great as the elec-
trical rating of the appliance. If the appliance is provided with 3- wire, grounding type cord, the
extension should be a GROUNDING TYPE 3 - WIRE CORD. The longer cord should be arran-
ged so that it will not drape over the counter-top or table top where it can be pulled on by chil-
dren or tripped over.
-Your product is equipped with a polarized alternating current line plug (a plug having one
blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. This is a safety
feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug
should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the
safety purpose of the polarized plug.

ADJUSTABLE THERMOSTAT
The adjustable thermostat features 4 postions: OFF, MIN, MED, MAX.
Pos. OFF: appliance off
Pos. MIN: to keep food warm
Pos. MED: for slow cooking
Pos. MAX: for rapid cooking (maintaining the ideal consistency of the food).
AROMA SCENTER
Install the aroma scenter in the relative housing, situated on the base of the grill body.
Place the herbs and spices of your choice in the aroma scenter along with water.
Fit the cooking grill, making sure the 2 heating elements are properly inserted in the aroma scenter.
On completion of the grilling, place the thermostat in pos. OFF, then remove the plug from the outlet
and the accessory plug from its housing.
USING THE AROMA SCENTER
This accessory allows flavors to be added to the food. Following are some tips on how to use this
accessory:
•Pour half a cup of water in the diffuser.
•Add the following herbs and spices to the water to obtain the desired flavor:
- 2 cloves of garlic, chopped 2 tablespoons curry
- 2 tablespoons lemongrass 2 tablespoons oregano
- 2 tablespoons rosemary 2 tablespoons fresh ginger
- Mesquite or hickory chips, well soaked 1 chopped jalapeno
TIPS FOR IDEAL GRILLING
•Follow these tips for ideal grilling:
•Only use silicon or wood utensils, as metal may ruin the non-stick surface of the grill.
•Preheat the grill for 10 minutes.
•Marinate the meat before grilling, to make it tender and tasty.
•Before grilling vegetables, fish or meat on the bone, grease the grill with oil.
If grilling fatty meats, or if the meat has been marinated, the grill does not need to be greased.
•Turn the food at least once during cooking, if not otherwise specified.
•In the last 6-10 minutes of cooking, if desired, brush the food with barbecue sauce or other
types of sauce.
•When cooking fatty meats like beef, pork, sausages or chicken with the skin, always use the lid.
•When grilling fish, for best results use a wide and flat spatula or kitchen tongs to turn it over
more easily.

TYPICAL GRILLING TIMES
The times and quantities listed above are purely indicative.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
•Disconnect the plug from the outlet and let the grill cool down. Ensure the accessory plug is
removed from its housing.
•Handle with care
•Wash the grill and the grill base in hot soapy water. The grill can be immersed completely in
the water. Use a sponge and non-abrasive detergent. Do not use abrasive sponges. Make sure
the grill is not left in the water overnight, as this may ruin the non-stick surface.
•If necessary, the cable can be cleaned with a soft cloth. Never immerse the cable in water or
other liquids.
REMARK:
•The Aroma Scenter is only for flavor infusion and not intended for smoking foods.
•Use only with the accessory plug P702(4) or P702(5).

LIMITED WARRANTY
What does the warranty cover?
We warrant each appliance to be free from defects in material and workmanship. Our obliga-
tion under this warranty is limited to repair at our factory or authorized service center of any
defective parts or part thereof, other than parts damaged in transit. In the event of a products
replacement or return, the unit must be returned transportation prepaid. The repaired or new
model will be returned at the company expense.
This warranty shall apply only if the appliance is used in accordance with the factory directions,
which accompany it, and on an Alternating current (AC) circuit.
How long does the coverage last?
This warranty runs for one year (1) from the purchase date found on your receipt and applies

What is not covered by the warranty?
The warranty does not cover defects or damage of the appliance, which result from repairs or
alterations to the appliance outside our factory or authorized service centers, nor shall it apply
to any appliance, which has been subject to abuse, misuse, negligence or accidents. Also, con-
sequential and incidental damage resulting from the use of this product or arising out of any
breach of contract or breach of this warranty are not recoverable under this warranty. Some
states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damage, so the
above limitation may not apply to you.
