Ingredients grilled on the grill plate can be finished off with a delicious coating of cheese. To create au
gratin dishes, do as follows:
- Place the fried or grilled ingredients in a pan and cover with a slice of cheese.
- Place the pan on the bottom plate.
- Once the cheese has melted, remove the pan from the appliance.
SAFETY TIPS
- This appliance is only intended for household use.
- Only plug the appliance into an earthed outlet. Use an earthed extension lead with a large enough dia-
meter (min. 3x1 mm?) and completely unroll the extension lead (otherwise it will become too hot).
Make sure that the extension lead will not touch the hot appliance and that it will lie safely on the
ground so that no one can trip over it.
- If the grill plate or lead are damaged, we recommend that you stop using the appliance and bring it
back to the shop for repair. A damaged lead can only be replaced by our service department.
- Never leave the appliance unattended when children are present. It becomes very hot. Be careful for
yourself as well; do not touch the grill plate while the appliance is switched on.
- After you switch on the appliance, the bottom will become hot. We recommend that you place heat-
resistant (nonflammable) protection between the appliance and the table surface, especially if the table-
top is sensitive to heat. Avoid plastic.
- Do not place the appliance on a damp or hot surface.
- Do not place the appliance on or close to flammable items such as curtains, a roll of paper towels, etc.
- Remove the plug from the outlet when you are not using the appliance, when you are cleaning it, or if
the appliance stops working while you are using it.
- Allow the appliance to cool off for at least one hour before you clean, move or put it away for storage.
CLEANING
FIRST SWITCH OFF THE APPLIANCE AND REMOVE THE PLUG FROM THE OUTLET.
Allow all parts to cool off before you clean the appliance.
Maintenance of the grill plate
- Clean the appliance after each use, as this will prevent bits of food from caking on.
- After use, let the appliance cool off for at least one hour.
- Never throw cold water on the hot grill plate. This would damage the appliance, and hot water could
spatter on you.
- Clean the grill plate with paper towels. Bits of food that are difficult to remove should be loosened
with a bit of cooking oil (lets it for 5 minutes). The casing can be wiped with a damp cloth.
- Do not use a cleaning agent or abrasive.
- Do not scrape off food with a sharp object; this could damage the smooth surface.
- Do not immerse the grill plate in water.
- The grill plate may be washed in the dishwasher for a thorough cleaning.
- If you have fried fish on the grill plate, we recommend that you rub it lightly with some vinegar or
lemon juice.
Maintenance of the holder and the stainless steel plate
- Wipe the outside clean with a paper towel and with a damp sponge with a bit of washing-up liquid.
- Make sure that no washing-up liquid remains on the steel plate and that the appliance is thoroughly
dried off.
Maintenance of the heating element and the electric part
- Never immerse the heating element or the electric component in water.
- Clean them with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly.
Maintenance of the pans
- Wash the pans in water with a bit of washing-up liquid in it.
RACLETTE SAVOIE
- Take some raclette cheese (200-250 grams [about 1/2 pound] per person) and cut into
1/4-inch slices. Remove the crust.
- Use 2-3 potatoes (cooked with the skin on) per person. Place the potatoes on a dish and
keep them warm on the grill plate.
- Place a slice of cheese into a pan and let it melt under the grill plate. Loosen the cheese
with a spatula and pour it over the potatoes. Add salt and pepper or nutmeg, to your
liking. Serve with onions and pickles in vinegar.
- You can also serve raw or cooked ham and vegetables with this dish.
