Warning and Safety Instructions  
Warning and Safety Instructions  
Do not connect the appliance to  
the main electrical supply using an  
extension cord. Extension cords do not  
guarantee the required safety of the ap-  
pliance.  
Warning:  
When using your Electric Grill, fol-  
low basic safety precautions includ-  
ing the following:  
Never use the grill to warm or heat  
the room.  
Read all instructions before using  
the grill.  
When using an electrical outlet  
near the grill, make sure that the  
power cord of the appliance does not  
come into contact with the heating el-  
ements of the grill.  
Use the grill only for its intended  
purpose.  
Do not use the unit unless all parts  
are properly in place according to  
the installation and operating instruc-  
tions.  
Do not allow children to operate or  
play with or near the grill.  
Be sure your appliance is properly  
installed and grounded by a quali-  
fied technician or electrician.  
Keep all toys stored away from the  
appliance to prevent injury to  
curious or playful children.  
Before servicing, disconnect the  
power supply by removing the fuse  
or tripping the circuit breaker.  
Please remember that, in use, the  
grill and/or griddle will become hot.  
Ensure that children do not touch them.  
The electrical safety of this ap-  
pliance can only be guaranteed  
when continuity is complete between  
the appliance and an effective ground-  
ing system.  
It is imperative that this basic safety re-  
quirement is met. If there is any doubt,  
have the electrical system of the house  
checked by a qualified electrician. The  
manufacturer cannot be held respon-  
sible for damage caused by the lack or  
inadequacy of an effective grounding  
system.  
Do not store items on the ap-  
plaince when not in use.  
Do not let cooking grease or other  
flammable materials accumulate  
on the grill or lava rocks.  
Never leave the grill unattended  
when cooking with oil or fat. Very  
hot oil can cause a fire.  
Allow sufficient time for the ap-  
pliance to cool before touching or  
exposing surface areas to flammable  
materials.  
Wear proper apparel – Loose-fit-  
ting or hanging garments should  
never be worn while using the ap-  
pliance.

Warning and Safety Instructions  
Warning and Safety Instructions  
Do not attempt to repair or replace  
any part of the appliance unless  
specifically recommended in this ma-  
nual. All other servicing should be re-  
fered to a qualified technician.  
Disposal of discarded appliances  
Before disposing of an old ap-  
pliance, turn it off at the main  
power connection and disconnect and  
remove the appliance cord. This is in-  
tended to prevent the discarded ap-  
pliance from becoming a hazard.  
Do not use water on grease fires.  
Smother any fire or flame, or use a  
dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.  
Always cook pork thoroughly to en-  
sure that, in the event of trichina,  
all bacteria will be killed and the meat  
is safe to eat.  
Text highlighted in boxes is of par-  
ticular importance and should be  
read in conjunction with the Warn-  
ing and Safety instructions.  
Do not store items of interest to  
children in cabinets above or be-  
hind the grill – children climbing on the  
grill to reach these items could be seri-  
ously injured.  
Do not use a steam-cleaner to  
clean the electric-grill.  
The steam could penetrate to electrical  
components and cause a short circuit.

REVIEW THEM PERIODICALLY

Operation  
Operation  
The grill is divided into two heating

tailed description of which setting is

areas, each regulated by its own en-  
ergy control. When the controls are  
turned on, the corresponding indicator  
lamp will illuminate. The power of the  
heating elements can be freely ad-  
justed.  
The grill comes with two removable  
stainless steel racks. By turning the  
racks over, it is possible to grill at two  
different heights. Select:  
the low rack position  
for flat items of food.  
Turning the grill on  
The grill will turn on when a setting is  
selected.  
the high rack position  
for larger items of food which take  
longer to cook.  
The controls can be turned either clock-  
wise or counter clockwise.  
The indicator lamp will illuminate.  
After grilling: keeping food hot  
As you increase from setting 1-12,  
the heating element will become pro-  
gressively hotter and the selected  
temperature will be automatically  
controlled.  
To turn the grill off:  
Turn the controls to setting ”0“.  
The indicator lamps will go out.  
If there is heavy soiling on the heating  
elements:  
On setting 12, the heating element is at  
maximum power.  
Turn the controls to setting ”12“.  
Any food remains should be com-  
pletely burnt off in about 10 minutes.  
Grilling and keeping food warm  
Turn the controls back to setting ”0“.  
Should any residue remain, it can be  
removed with a wire brush once the  
heating elements have cooled.  
Separate control of the two grilling  
zones make it possible to grill meat on  
one area and keep already grilled food  
hot on the other area.  
For example, sausages can be grilled  
and then kept hot.

Grilling  
Grilling  
Grilling over lava rocks  
Grilling over the water trough  
Before cooking, remove the grill racks  
and raise the heating elements. Take  
the lava rocks out of their bag and put  
them into the lava rock tray.  
Before turning on the heating elements:  
remove the lava rock tray from the  
grill.  
First check that the drain valve  
underneath the grill is closed, then  
fill the trough up to the lower rim with  
approx. 1/2 gallon of hot water.  
We recommend pre-heating the el-  
ements at setting ”12“ for approx. 5  
minutes.  
This will allow the food to cook using  
heat radiated by the lava rocks.  
We recommend pre-heating the el-  
ements at setting ”12“ for approx. 5  
minutes.  
This will allow the food to be cooked  
by steam, as well as heat from the  
grill. The trough will also be easier to  
clean.  
Meat can be lightly brushed with oil be-  
fore grilling.  
If you wish to add herbs to the food  
while grilling, they can be sprinkled di-  
rectly onto the meat or onto the lava  
rocks, so the aroma reaches the food.  
Meat can be brushed with oil before  
being grilled.  
As the lava rocks absorb the fat which  
drips onto them, they will eventually  
become saturated. When the stones  
become dark, they should be changed.  
Drops of fat will be cooled immediately  
in the water trough, so that they cannot  
catch fire.  
Smoke forms when fat drops onto hot  
lava rocks. With a DA 8 extractor situ-  
ated next to the grill, the smoke can be  
removed from the atmosphere.  
When grilling, monitor the level of  
water in the trough; if necessary,  
carefully add more water.  
After grilling, drain out the water and  
oil through the drain valve (see  
”Cleaning and Care“).

Please Note: The times given are for a pre-heated grill and should serve only as a guide - the actual  
cooking time will depend on the size and quantity of food being cooked.  
Times may be a little longer when using the water trough as compared to using the lava rock.  
* Food should be turned over half way  
through the cooking time.

Cleaning and Care  
Cleaning and Care  
Grill racks  
Be careful of hot water! If necess-  
ary, add cold water to cool it down.  
The grill racks can be washed by hand  
or in a dishwasher.  
Place a heat resistant container be-  
neath the drain valve.  
If, over time, the racks become brown,  
the residue can be removed with a  
stainless steel cleaner.  
To open the valve, turn the lever 90°  
clockwise.  
Grill Elements  
To close it, turn the lever counter  
clockwise as far as it will go.  
After grilling, remaining meat and fat  
can be burnt off the heating element.  
After draining, remember to close  
the valve.  
Turn the control to setting ”12“.  
CAUTION: “Burning off” the el-  
ements may cause fat which has ac-  
cumulated in the lava rocks to burn  
with an open flame.  
The grill interior should be cleaned with  
hot water and dishwashing liquid.  
Do not use abrasive cleaning  
agents or caustic cleaners.  
Be careful when using a DA 8 ex-  
tractor or vent hood. Do not leave  
the grill unattended during this  
cleaning process!  
Any food remains should be com-  
pletely burnt off after about 10  
minutes. Remove any remaining  
residue with a wire brush, once the  
heating elements have cooled.  
Control panel / Control knobs  
Do not use any scouring agents or  
pads on the knobs or control panel,  
as these could damage the finish.  
Clean the control knobs and the control  
panel with hot sudsy water.  
After cleaning, rub dry with a soft cloth.  
Grill interior  
After grilling over the water trough, the  
liquid should be drained out of the grill  
via the drain valve.
