Tips

• Keep the meat and fish cold and fresh in the

refrigerator until you actually start grilling it.

• Do not use the same cutlery and the same

chopping board for raw and grilled food.

• Do not salt the meat, chicken or fish before

grilling: then too much juice will be extracted.

You can of course salt the food after grilling.

• Always use meat, chicken or fish of good

quality, cut into pieces/slices which are

11⁄2 - 2 cm thick and which are not carved or

flattened.

• Always use the appliance with a layer of water

in the outer tray. This prevents smoke and

makes cleaning the inner tray much easier.

If necessary add water during the cooking.

Please note: Do not pour water on the heating

element! Only pour water through the special

filling aperture.

• If you wish to grill sausages, do not forget to

prick a number of holes before grilling. (This

avoids the saucage bursting which can result in

hot fat spattering and the saucages becoming

dried out.)

• Turn the food on the grill at regular intervals.

Then it will become evenly browned and will be

well-done throughout.

• It is advisable to wrap fish in aluminium foil

before grilling.

• To avoid sticking to the grill it is advisable to

pad the meat dry with a kitchen towel before

putting it on the grilling plate.

• The required grilling time is primarily

dependent upon the thickness of the meat,

chicken or fish (and not upon its weight).

Attention: Especially pork, minced meat and

fish must be very well done. Make sure that the

pieces of meat are not too thick.

• For the best grilling result indoors, we advise

you not to use the windscreen. However, you

can use the windscreen in combination with the

hood.

- Place the grill (fig. 12, 13).
