5. Using the fry-top (If fitted)

During normal operations, the appliance heats up considerably. Caution should therefore be used. Do not allow children to approach the appliance. Do not leave the fry-top unattended while it is on.

5.1Before switching on the fry-top

The first time it is used, the fry-top griddle may develop an acrid or burnt smell caused by oily residue from manufacturing that may give unpleasant odours or flavours to food. To eliminate this problem, clean the griddle as described in section “10.6 Cleaning the fry-top” before use.

5.2Switching on

The fry-top is equipped with adjustable heating. The entire surface of the griddle can be used, or only one of the two halves, front or rear.

Position the control knob of the heating element to the required setting. The red light switches on to indicate the appliance is working. Place the food on the griddle and cook as preferred.

5.3Heat Setting Guide
