Grilling With Rotisserie Function; Exchanging The Oven Light Bulb - Rommelsbacher BGE 1580/E Instruction Manual

Grilling with rotisserie function

The rotisserie spit allows to prepare delicious grilled chicken and other kinds of spit-roast (e. g. pig knuckles).
For this proceed as follows:
• It is important to defrost frozen chicken completely before grilling. Then wash and pat them dry.
• Depending on the recipe and your personal taste, rub the food to be grilled with oil and spices.
Tip: Always mix paprika and curry with some oil or season the meat at the end of the grilling time, as
these spices burn easily and taste bitter then.
• Slide one of the fixing brackets on the spit and tighten it with the screw. Now skewer the prepared
meat onto the spit centrally until it is pushed firmly into the first fixing bracket. Then slide the second
fixing bracket on the spit and push it firmly into the roast. Also tighten this screw.
• Check that the food to be grilled is properly centred on the spit.
• To prevent protruding chicken parts from burning, the joints and wings must be bond together with a
heat-proof and food safe string (e. g. natural cotton string).
Tip: To avoid a too fast browning of prominent parts, delicate areas may be wrapped with unsalted rashers.
• Important! Insert the roasting tray into the lowest level. In this way, any grease, dripping down, will be
collected and the oven's bottom stays clean.
Tip: We recommend filling half of the roasting/baking tray with water; the rising steam makes your
grill food especially tender. However, should you prefer your chicken really crispy outside, do not fill any
water into the roasting/baking tray.
• Use the rotisserie handle for lifting the rotisserie assembly into the oven. Firstly, insert the spit with one
end in the hole on the right hand side of the interior oven and then place it in the support provided on
the left hand side.
• Before closing the oven door, make sure the spit with the meat is positioned correctly.
Attention! Hazard of fire! Make sure that the meat to be grilled is rotating properly and that it
does not touch the heating elements – otherwise the meat might catch fire.
• Select the function:
• Per each kilogram chicken you may reckon with a grilling time of about 60 minutes.
Tip: A spit-roast chicken is ready when piercing the drumstick with a needle (no knife!) only clear meat
juice comes out, without any traces of blood.
• In case the skin of the chicken blisters, reduce the temperature and brush the blisters with some oil.
• After the grilling time has been finished, it is easy to remove the rotisserie spit from the oven by lifting
it out using the special handle for the spit. Put it on a large and heat-proof support.
Attention! Hazard of burns: Oven and food are getting hot during grilling! For handling with hot
parts, protect yourself by using pot cloths or oven gloves.

Exchanging the oven light bulb

Always unplug the appliance and let it cool down before
exchanging the light bulb!
• Unscrew the lamp cover carefully. Remove the defective light bulb.
• Insert the new bulb (heat-resistant - 230 V ~ 15 W, E14, T 300 °C) into the thread and screw it hand-tight.
• Then insert the lamp cover in the thread and screw it in hand-tight, too.
