The times are recommended once only.
The cooking times primarily depend on the fol-
lowing factors:
• The setting of the temperature regulator:
A low temperature setting should be selec-
ted to keep the grilled food warm or to grill
delicate items such as fish. Pork and beef
should be cooked at the maximum tempera-
ture setting.
• The type and thickness of the food being
cooked.
• The temperature of the food being
cooked: The food to be cooked should
always be at room temperature. Never put
frozen food directly onto the cooking plate, it
could become tough.

8. GRILLING TIPS

Tender slices of meat are generally more
suitable for grilling. Somewhat tougher
meat will become more tender if it has been
marinated overnight.
• A marinade is always made of oil (in
order to add moisture), vinegar (to make
it softer) and a mixture of herbs.
• Never cook meat too long. Even pork is
better if it is still pink and juicy.
• Do not prick holes into the meat if you
can possibly avoid it. Using forks to turn
the meat makes it dry, so we recom-
mend the use of wooden tongs.
• Fish and meat should be turned only
once if possible; repeated turning is
unnecessary and dries out the food
being cooked.
• In order to turn over fish, use a large
wooden spatula so that you can lift up
the entire piece of fish when turning it
over.
If the food being cooked sticks to the grill-
ing plate, wipe down the cooking plate from
time to time with a paper towel dipped in
oil.
9. CLEANING AND CARE (Fig. 10-11)
• Danger of electric shock!
Switch off the unit before it is
to be cleaned, pull out the plug
and pull out the thermostatic
plug from the cooking plate.
• Danger of burns!
It is essential to let the unit
cool down.
• Do not use metallic cutlery such as
knives or forks, etc., for cleaning. The
non-stick coating can be damaged as a
result.
• Pull out the tray from the unit (2).
• Use only the wooden spatula (g) provi-
ded to remove any rest particles from
the cooking plates (10/11).
• The cooking plate can be put into the
dishwashing machine or washed by
hand, and by using a plastic washing-up
brush and hot water. The tray should be
cleaned by hand.
Danger of electric shock!
Never put the thermostatic plug (c) with
the mains cable into the dishwashing
machine.
The appliance inlet shall be dried before
