ELECTRIC CHARGRILL
ECG6, ECG9 & ECG9/WT
WARNING
! Always drain food before cooking.
! Do not allow the tank to run out of water, check regularly.
! Disconnect the unit from the electricity supply before servicing or undertaking any electrical
maintenance.
! Parts of this unit may become hot in normal use, therefore suitable precautions must be taken to
avoid accidental contact.
! Never leave the unit unsupervised whilst cooking.
! In the event of a fire occurring, water should not be used to extinguish it. It is advisable to install
a fire extinguisher and have a fire blanket within reach of the chargrill.
! Always use the unit under a fume extraction unit.
OPERATION
1Before first using the chargrill and with it disconnected from the mains, clean the tank, element and
cooking grids with hot water and a little mild detergent. To gain clear access to the tank, first lift off
the splashguard and cast cooking grids (take care not to drag the castings over the element, as this
will shorten the element life). Once the parts are removed, lift the element up until the element stay
latches in uppermost position.
2Clean out the tank and ensure that all parts are completely dry and then push the element back
allowing the element stay to be pulled out, and then gently lower the element into its working
position.
3Place the octagonal water level indicator onto one of element cross supports in a visible position.
4Replace the surround and cast cooking grids. If the unit is not to be used immediately lightly coat
the cooking grids in cooking oil.
5Ensure that the drain valve is closed before adding water via the integral funnel on the rear left hand
corner up to the top level on the level indicator
6Inlet water connected units use the mains water supply control valve/tap on left of control panel.
Water will be dispensed from the inlet on the rear wall of the tank.
7Set the power control to the OFF position and switch on the power supply.
8Turn the power control to the desired temperature setting.
9Allow 15 minutes for the unit to warm up.
