Heating devices: wait until the appliance has
cooled down before you touch the housing and
parts of the unit.
Be extra careful during cleaning and servicing.
INTRODUCTION
The Classic Multi Plate Comfort is designed for
fat-free frying and grilling. It is equipped with a
non-stick surface and a thermostat to keep the Multi
Plate at the required temperature.
POSITIONING THE APPLIANCE
•
Always position the Multi Plate on a stable and
flat surface.
•
While the Multi Plate has a base that prevents
the surface from becoming hot, positioning the
Multi Plate on a plastic table cloth or other
sensitive surface is not recommended. In that
case, put, for example, a robust place mat or
heat-resistant trivet under the Multi Plate.
•
Ensure there is sufficient space around the Multi
Plate to allow the heat to escape and for
ventilation.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
•
Do not use metal cutlery on the Metal Plate, as
this will damage the non-stick layer. Use
wooden spatulas wherever possible.
•
Do not pour cold water onto the appliance when
it is turned on, as the water will spatter and also
damage the Multi Plate.
•
Be careful of steam and spatters when placing
food on the Multi Plate and when cooking fatty
ingredients.
•
The Multi Plate becomes very hot when in use.
Do not touch the Multi Plate. When the Multi
Plate is on, only touch the handles.
•
After use, turn the thermostat to "0", then
unplug the appliance, wait until it has cooled
down and remove the thermometer from the
appliance.
•
Do not move the appliance while it is on or still
hot. Use oven gloves if you have to touch the
appliance.
•
The removable cord with the thermometer must
be kept dry at all times.
FIRST USE
•
Clean the Multi Plate before using it for the first
time (see "Cleaning and maintenance").
•
Insert the thermometer into the appliance.
•
Plug in the appliance.
•
Set the thermostat to the maximum
temperature of 215°C using the dial.
•
Wait a few minutes until the temperature light
turns off - this means the Multi Plate has
reached the temperature set.
Note: It is normal for some smoke with an unusual
smell to be generated the first time that the
appliance is used. This will stop of its own accord.
USE
Before putting food on the Multi Plate:
•
Prepare the food, for example with spices or
marinade.
•
Give the Multi Plate a quick clean with a soft
moist cloth.
•
Insert the thermometer into the appliance and
plug it in.
•
Set the thermostat to the desired temperature.
Turn the thermostat to the right to increase
the temperature and to the left to decrease the
temperature.
•
Wait until the temperature set has been
reached. The temperature light will turn on and
stay on until the Multi Plate has reached the
temperature set, then the light will go out. The
light will regularly turn on again briefly, while
the heating element is heating up again to
maintain the temperature.
•
Grill the food on the Multi Plate until it is ready
to eat.
•
Experiment with the temperature and the
cooking time for the best results.
•
Small pieces of food grill and fry better than
large pieces.
•
Turn the food over using a spatula.
•
It is best to turn over meat or fish only once so
that it does not dry out.
Tip
Defrosting food on the Multi Plate is much quicker
than, for example, on a ceramic or plastic plate. The
Multi Plate does not need to be turned on to defrost
food. Defrost food without plugging in the appliance!
