NOTE
You can use this grill in 3 different ways:
–fully open so that both hotplates can be used as a table grill.
–with the movable upper hotplate as a contact grill so that, for instance,
meat is grilled from both sides.
–with the fixed upper hotplate as a panini grill so that, for instance,
baguettes can be gratinated.
NOTE
► If you are grilling food where liquids such as fat escape, fold out the stand
extensions !. Due to the slight inclination of the lower hotplate , liquids
flow better in the direction of the fat outlet into the fat collector tray .
"Contact grill" position
1) Open the appliance lid and place the food to be grilled on the lower
hotplate.
2) Close the appliance lid using the handle.
3) Due to its movable mount, the upper hotplate always lies parallel to the
lower hotplate even if the food to be grilled is bulky. This guarantees an
optimal grilling result.
4) Check the browning of the food after a while. To do this, open the appliance
lid using the handle.
NOTE
► Start with short grilling times and increase them until you identify the correct
duration.
5) When you are satisfied with the level of browning, remove the grilled food.
CAUTION!
Damage to the appliance!
► Do not use pointed or sharp objects to remove the grilled food. These could
damage the surfaces of the hotplates!
6) Turn the heat level control to MIN and remove the plug from the mains
power socket.
CAUTION!
► Always remove the plug from the mains power socket when the appliance is
not in use. It is not sufficient to simply set the heat level control to MIN!

Tips and tricks
■ To make meat more tender and speed up the grilling process, you can
marinate it beforehand. An ideal basis for this can be sour cream, red wine,
vinegar, buttermilk or fresh papaya or pineapple juice, for example. Add
herbs and spices according to taste. Do not add salt as this can draw water
out of the meat and make it dry. Place the meat in the marinade so that it is
completely covered and close the container. Ideally, leave it overnight.
■ The hotplates have a non-stick coating, therefore extra fat is not
necessary. If you still wish to use fat, please ensure that the fat/oil is suitable
for grill-roasting, e.g. rapeseed oil.
■ If you are not sure whether the grilled food is cooked all the way through,
you can use a commercially available meat thermometer.
