IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Protection from damage

Be awrare of loose fitting or

hanging garments when operating

the cooktop, they may present a fire

hazard.

Do not use any type of aluminium

products including pots, pans, and

foil on the grill. Aluminium will cause

overheating and may damage the grill

grate.

Do not heat unopened food

containers. Built-up pressure may

cause the container to burst and result

in injury.

Do not drop anything on the

ceramic surface. Even a light

object could cause damage in certain

circumstances.

Do not store items on the grill when

not in use.

Do not use a steam cleaner to

clean the appliance. Steam could

penetrate electrical components and

cause a short circuit.

Do not let cooking grease or other

flammable materials accumulate

on the appliance.

Do not leave the appliance

unattended while in use.

Overheated food can ignite.

Protection from burns

The appliance becomes very hot

when in use. Make sure that no one

comes in contact with it. The heating

element and grate may be hot even

though they are dark in color.

Extinguish flames immediately.

Replace the lava rocks regularly.

Rocks saturated with oil or fat

catch fire easily. The grill trough and the

lava rock container should be cleaned

after each use to keep them free of oil

and fat.

Do not store toys or items of

interest to children in cabinets

above or behind the appliance.

Children climbing onto the grill to reach

these items may become seriously

injured.

Never put water or ice on to a hot

grill. This can cause a serious

reaction leading to injury.

Do not allow children to operate or

play with, or near, the grill.

Do not use water on grease fires.

Smother any fire or flame, or use a

dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.

Use only dry, heat resistant pot-

holders. Moist or damp potholders

used on hot surfaces can result in

steam burns. Do not let the potholder

touch the hot heating element. Do not

use towels or other bulky items near the

appliance.

Do not store aerosols,

combustibles and/or any other

easily flammable materials underneath

or adjacent to the grill.

coating which may give off a slight odor

the first time your new appliance is

heated.

Before using for the first time clean the

water trough and the grate with a

solution of hot water and liquid dish

soap. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth

(see "Cleaning and Care").

Using the barbecue

Before grilling

^ Reseat the lava rock container, if so

desired.

The grill can be used with or without

lava rocks. When cooking without lava

rocks, rising steam will keep the food

moist. When using lava rocks, cooking

results will be similar to barbecuing.

^ Lower the heating element and

replace the grate.

^ The grill can now be turned on.

While grilling, watch the level of

water in the trough. If necessary,

add more water.

Preparing the grill:

^ Remove the grate, raise the heating

element, and remove the lava rock

container.

Do not use aluminium dishes, pans,

pots or foil on the grill. Never cover

the grill grate with aluminium foil.

Aluminium will cause overheating

and may damage the grill grate.

^ Fill the trough with water:

– up to line a, (about 2 quarts [2.5 l ])

when grilling without lava rocks, or

– up to line b, (about 1 quart [1.2 l ])

when grilling with lava rocks.

appliance. Pressurized steam could

cause permanent damage to the

surface and to components for

which the manufacturer cannot

accept responsibility.

,^{Do not use too much water when}

cleaning the controls. Water could

penetrate into the electronics and

cause damage.

Never use strong cleaners e.g. oven

sprays, stain or rust removers.

Scouring pads and abrasive

cleaning agents should only be

used on the heating element.

Stainless steel

Clean stainless steel surfaces with

warm water and liquid dish soap
