Before first use

Using the appliance
Note: The appliance may produce some smoke when you use it for the first time. This is normal.
1 Slide the drip tray into the base (Fig. 3).
Note: The drip tray can only be slid into the base in one way.
2 Place the grilling grid (HD6372 only) or the barbecue grid on the base (Fig. 4).
3 Put the plug in the wall socket (1) and turn the control knob to the 'keep-warm' position for
2 seconds (2) (Fig. 5).
4 Turn the control knob to the 'on' position (Fig. 6).
HD6372: The grilling grid is hot and ready for use right away.
,
It takes 6-7 minutes for the barbecue grid to heat up.
,
5 Use a spatula or a pair of tongs to place the ingredients on the grid (Fig. 7).
Be careful: the grid is hot!
Note: When you marinate your food, only use little oil and brush the marinade lightly onto the food as the
oil causes extra smoke.
Barbecue grid only: during the grilling process, you hear the sizzling sound that is typical for
,
barbecuing.
Note: The grilling time depends on the thickness and size of the food and may vary.
Note: If you grill very fatty ingredients, you will still notice some smoke coming off the food, but much less
than with a conventional electric table grill.
6 When the food is done, remove it from the grid or turn the control knob to the keep-warm
position if you want to eat the food later. (Fig. 8)
Use a spatula or a pair of tongs to remove the food. Do not use metal, sharp or abrasive kitchen
utensils.
7 Loosen any caked food or grease carefully with a spatula and remove excess oil from the drip
tray before you grill the next batch of food.
8 To continue grilling, place the next batch of food on the grid.
9 When you have finished grilling, switch off the appliance (1) and remove the plug from the
wall socket (2). (Fig. 9)
Grilling times (Fig. 10)
In the food table you find some types of food you can cook on this table grill. The table shows how
long the food has to be grilled (not including any heating up time for the appliance). The grilling time
and temperature depend on the type of food that you prepare (e.g. meat), its thickness and its
temperature and also on your own taste.
