(Fig.1) The barbecue allows you to grill your food fast.
Using the control knob on the front panel, you can
turn on the heater that can cook faster or more slowly,
according to the settings from 1 to 11. It works as a grill
by turning the knob to position 11. You will notice a slight
click that shows that the thermostat has been turned off,
and the heating coil soon gets red hot.
This does not mean that you cannot get very good
grilling results from the intermediate positions. On the
contrary, these positions are recommended for cooking
delicate dishes, or to cook the food evenly overall, and
right into the middle as well.
The lava rock in the tray is provided to absorb the drips
of oil or grease that are produced during cooking. As
well, it accumulates heat during the start-up phase of
the heater, and so gives you a more constant grilling
performance, which is very similar to that obtained from
charcoal.
Water can be put into the tray, instead of the lava rock.
(We suggest a depth of about 3 cm or one inch.) The
presence of water in the tray eliminates unpleasant
cooking smells, without reducing the performance of the
barbecue in any way.
To obtain the best results, we therefore recommend
preheating the lava rock for at least 10 minutes at
position 1. This is particularly advisable when you turn
on the equipment for the first time, because it allows you
to reduce the risk, during cooking, of the food absorbing
smells that the heating coil produces when it is first
switched on.
Maintenance
Unplug the appliance before performing any maintenance.
To increase the life of the appliance, it is essential to
periodically perform a general cleaning, keeping the
following in mind:
- the steel parts must be cleaned with a suitable product
(available in stores) that is not abrasive or corrosive.
Avoid products that contain chlorine (bleach, etc.);
- avoid leaving acid or alkaline substances on the work
!
surface (vinegar, salt, lemon juice, etc.).
