Connection and pre-heating
• Fully unwind the power cord.
• Make sure that the electric power supply is compatible with the power rating and voltage indicated on the bottom
of the appliance.
• Always plug the appliance into an earthed socket.
• If an extension cord is used:
- it must have an earth connection;
- take all necessary precautions to prevent anyone tripping over an extension cord.
If the power supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent
or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.
This appliance is not intended to be operated by means of an external timer or separate remote-control system.

use the handle and wear oven gloves if necessary.
Do not move the appliance when in use.

Empty them if necessary. Be careful not to burn yourself as the fat is very hot.
For the grill function
• Place the food on the lower grill plate.
• Close the appliance.
• Let the food cook according to the instructions in the cooking table.
• The space between the two grill plates is adjusted automatically (0 cm to 3,5 cm) depending on the thickness
of the food to be cooked
- fig. 8
