USE
• Place the appliance on a stable base.
• Turn the cheese holder towards the outside and put a piece of cheese on the holder.
• Slide the cheese holder to the desired height with the height regulator, depending on the thickness of
the cheese.
ATTENTION: Always keep 2 cm distance to the heating element. Tightly fasten the screw (11).
• If you use a part of cheese, you can turn the cheese holder into a corner of 45°. Unscrew the screw (9),
and adjust the cheese holder so that the upper side of the cheese lies horizontally. Then tighten the
screw.
• Insert the plug in the socket and turn the thermostat knob into the desired position. The red control
light will turn on. As soon as the desired temperature is reached the control light will turn off.
• When first in use, it is possible for some smoke to come from the appliance. This is normal and will
disappear automatically.
• Turn the cheese holder below the heating element.
• Let the cheese melt below the heating element. ATTENTION: the appliance is now hot!
• The baking plate, on top of the appliance, can be used in the meantime to grill bread for the cheese or
bruschetta, but you can grill fish, meat, vegetables,… as well.
TIP: Does the cheese not melt (enough)? Check points below:
- Check if the plug is correctly inserted into the socket and into the connection of the appliance.
- The cheese is too far from the heating element ➔ place the cheese holder on max. 2 cm of the heating
element.
- The chosen temperature is too low ➔ turn the thermostat knob higher.
- The used cheese is not suited for melting ➔ Use raclette cheese.
• Turn the cheese holder away from the appliance with the handles as soon as the cheese is sufficiently
melted.
• Scrape of the desired amount of cheese, preferably by a raclette knife (separately available).
• After 2 or 3 portions, remove the excess of crust before you continue.
TIP: You can eat the crusts as well. Delicious!
• Push the cheese holder back below the heating element. If necessary, adjust the height of the cheese
holder. ATTENTION The appliance is hot! To change the height of the cheese holder while in use, use
oven gloves.
• After use, turn the thermostat knob off and pull the plug from the socket and from the connection of
the appliance.
• Let the appliance completely cool down before you move, dismount or clean the appliance.
