Correct use
~The barbecue is hot during use and
remains so for some time after being
switched off.
Caution: Danger of burns!
~Never leave the barbecue
unattended when cooking with oil or fat.
Overheated fat or oil, grease and food
scraps on the lava rocks can ignite and
spark a fire.
~If hot fat or oil catches fire, NEVER
use water to douse the flames. Use a
pot lid, wet dishtowel, or similar item to
smother the fire.
~Do not use the electric barbecue to
heat rooms, and never turn the
barbecue on when the heating element
is flipped up. The high temperatures
can cause nearby easily flammable
objects to catch fire. In addition, the life
span of the appliance would be
reduced.
~Protect your hands with
heat-resistant oven mitts or potholders
when using the appliance. Use only dry
potholders, make sure they are not
damp or wet, as this causes heat to
transfer through the material more
quickly with the risk of scalding or
burning yourself.
~Do not flambé on the barbecue
under any circumstances. Fire hazard!
~Do not use the barbecue as a
storage surface.
If the barbecue is on or accidentally
turned on or there is residual heat,
metallic objects can heat up and cause
burns.
Other items may melt or catch fire.
Always turn the barbecue off after use!
~Installation of several units
Do not place hot pots or pans on the
spacing strips because they could
damage the seal of the spacing strips.
~Do not cover the barbecue with, for
example, a cover, a cloth or protective
film. If the barbecue is turned on by
mistake or there is residual heat there is
a danger that the material will ignite,
explode or melt.
~NEVER use grilling bowls, grilling
pans, pots and pans or other such
items to grill or warm food, and NEVER
cover the barbecue during operation
(e.g., with aluminum foil). The resulting
build-up of heat can damage the
barbecue.
~NEVER use the barbecue to heat up
closed containers, e.g., canned foods.
The increased pressure can cause the
containers/cans to explode, and this
carries the danger of injury and burns.
~Clean the hot lava rocks on a
regular basis and change them when
needed. Fat-saturated rocks can easily
catch fire.
Warning and safety instructions

~The grill basin must always be filled
with water when the barbecue is being
used.
~If you use an electric small
appliance, such as a hand mixer, in the
vicinity of the barbecue, make sure that
the power cord does not come into
contact with the hot barbecue. This
could damage the insulation on the
cord. Danger of electric shock.
~Always cook food thoroughly.
Temperatures must be high enough,
and the cooking times long enough, to
kill any germs in the food.
~If the electric barbecue is built in
behind a panelled door, it should only
be operated with the door open.
Close the door only when the appliance
is shut off and has cooled down.
Miele cannot be held liable for
damage caused by failure to comply
with these safety instructions and
warnings.

Before using for the first time
9

Prepare the appliance
You can use the electric barbecue with
or without the lava rocks.
Without the lava rocks: food will stay
more moist, from the rising steam.
With the lava rocks: the food will have a
more pronounced grilled aroma and
flavor.
^Check that the drain valve is closed.
^Remove the grate, raise the heating
element, and remove the lava rock
container (if desired).
^If grilling without lava rocks fill the
water trough with water up to mark
a, with approx. 4.0 liters of water.
If grilling with lava rocks, fill the
water trough with approx. 1.8 liters of
water.
^Return the filled lava rock container
to the water trough (if desired).
^The heating element can now be
turned down.
^Replace the grates.
Turning On/Off
,Do not leave the appliance
unattended while in use.
The electric barbecue is divided into
two heating areas, which can be used
and adjusted separately. For large
quantities, you can use the entire
surface for cooking. For smaller
quantities, you can, for example, cook
in the front and keep food warm at the
back, using a lower setting.
The heating elements can be switched
on and off by turning the appropriate
knob left or right.

Grilling
While grilling, watch the level of
water in the trough. If necessary,
add more water.
Do not use aluminum dishes, pans,
pots or foil on the grill. Never cover
the grill grate with aluminum foil.
Aluminum will cause overheating
and may damage the grill grate.
^Turn one or both operating knobs to
power level "12".
Pre-heat the grill with both racks in
place for approx. 10 minutes.
Make sure the operating knob(s) are
set precisely to power level 12.
If the knobs are not set to the exact
position, the heating will not work with
maximum power.
^Set the power level.
^Grill food as desired.
Tips
–To minimize splattering, dry moist
foods with paper towels before
grilling.
–Marinate food before grilling, to
enhance the flavors.
–To prevent sticking non-marinated
items should be brushed lightly with
oil before grilling. Only use oils that
can tolerate high temperatures.
–You can shorten the grilling time for
potatoes in foil and corn on the cob,
by pre-cooking the potatoes for
approx. 15 - 40 minutes (depending
on the size) and the corn for approx.
10 - 15 minutes.
After grilling
^Turn the appliance off.
^After each use, clean the appliance
while it is still somewhat warm to the
touch (see "Cleaning and care").
^After grilling with the lava rocks
check the condition of the rocks. If
they are dark in color, they are
saturated with fat and need to be
cleaned or replaced. See "Cleaning
and Care - Lava rocks".

,Under no circumstances use a
steam cleaner to clean this
appliance. Pressurized steam could
cause permanent damage to the
surface and to components for
which the manufacturer cannot
accept responsibility.
Never use strong cleaners e.g. oven
sprays, stain or rust removers.
Scouring pads and abrasive
cleaning agents should only be
used on the heating element.
Do not use any sharp pointed
objects which could damage the
seal between the ceramic surface
and the surrounding frame, and
between the frame and the
countertop.
When using cleaning agents for
stainless steel always follow the
manufacturer’s instructions on the
packaging.
After cleaning use a soft, dry cloth to
remove any moisture. This way you
will prevent the build up of limescale
deposits.
Stainless steel
Clean stainless steel surfaces with
warm water and liquid dish soap
applied with a non-abrasive sponge
and then wipe dry with a soft cloth.
Soak baked or hardened spills first to
loosen them.
Stainless steel surfaces can be cleaned
using a non-abrasive stainless steel
cleaner.
To help prevent resoiling, a conditioner
for stainless steel can also be used.
Apply sparingly with even pressure.
Do not use stainless steel cleaner on
or around the printing, it may rub
off. Use only a soft sponge with
some dish liquid and warm water to
clean this area.
Grates and lava rock container
After each use, clean the grates and
lava rock container with warm water
and liquid dish soap. Pre-soak any
heavy soiling, then remove with a
brush. Dry throughly.
