Usage
The raclette appliance is the center
of a pleasurable social meal with
each person at the table preparing
his / her own gourmet pan.
It is not only the typical Swiss raclette
meal consisting of raclette cheese
and potatoes boiled in their jackets
you can feast on but also other spe-
cialities that may be prepared in the
pans. Let your imagination guide
you.
Sausages, skewers or steaks can be
grilled at the same time on the grill
top. An additional touch is achieved
when covering the food with a slice
of cheese and baking it „au gratin".
Make sure that the raclette meal is
served on preheated plates.

Putting into operation

Before first use clean the pans and
the grill top with hot water and a
small quantity of washing-up liquid.
Rub dry carefully afterwards. Spread
a few drops of oil onto the grill top
and rub the grill top.
If excessive oil is used during prepa-
ration or during grilling, it may burn
into the grilling plate. It will not be
easy to remove this burnt oil afterwards.
Before starting, heat up the appliance
for 10 minutes with the grilling bowl
but without the pans.

Connect the cord to the socket. After
switching the appliance on the con-
trol lamp indicates that the appliance

lower third, the food can be kept warm.
The appliance cannot be switched
off at the control unit!
