ENVIRONMENT
Environmental Protection - DIRECTIVE 2012 / 19 /EU
To protect the environment and people's health, it is
important for everyone, including all suppliers and
users, to follow specific guidelines for the disposal of
any electrical appliance at the end of its useful life.
For this reason, the appliance at hand bears the marking on its data
plate to remind you never to dispose of it in any public or private
bin meant for household rubbish.
Instead, you should return it to your retail shop or drop it off at
a collection site that uses selective sorting to redirect items for
recycling and eventual reuse in other applications.

OPERATION AND USE

FIRST USE
When unpacking the appliance, take care to remove and check all
*
packing for parts and to remove the label affixed to the glass tray.
It is recommended to clean the pans before using them for the
*
first time.
A new appliance may smoke slightly when used for the first time.
*
OPERATION
Place the appliance on a flat surface.
*
Fully extend the cable and examine it carefully before using it.
*
Plug in the appliance and turn the switch on; the indicator will
*
light up.
Preheat the appliance for minutes before inserting pans.
15
*
On the upper tray you can place a heat-resistant plate with a
*
little water, potatoes or other foods in order to keep them warm.
Place the cheese in the raclette pans.
*
Place the pans into the appliance, making sure that the cheese is
*
not so thick that it comes into contact with the heating element.
Remove* and enjoy when the cheese has reached the desired
*
colour and consistency.
Note: It is normal for the cooking temperature to vary slightly
over the entire cooking surface.
If you have finished or would like to pause cooking during a meal,
*
the pans may be placed on the bottom tempered-glass level.
If you use the 'hot-holding' feature, it is normal for the cheese
to congeal somewhat.
To give cheese a thinner consistency, place the pan on the upper
*
level again for a few minutes.
* IMPORTANT: the handles of the raclette pans may become
very hot due to the radiant heat from the element. For your
comfort, grasp pans only by the external portion of the
handle.

MAINTENANCE

Always unplug the appliance and let cool
completely before cleaning.
Your appliance has glass trays and consequently
requires special care during cleaning and
maintenance.
Glass trays and element: clean with a
sponge, a little hot water and liquid detergent.
Note: the glass trays are fixed, do not try
to remove them.
Note: To avoid scratching the glass, never use
an abrasive sponge or metal pad.
First, clean the top of each tray, and then turn
the appliance over carefully and clean the
underside of each tray.
Note: The element does not come out. Instead,
carefully wipe the glass trays around it.
Let sit for 2 to 3 minutes. Then, before the
water evaporates completely, dry the trays with
paper towels.
Dry the element thoroughly.
Tip: to remove stubborn stains and grease more
easily, use glass cleaner.
Pans: clean with a non-abrasive sponge
using hot water and liquid detergent.
Rinse. To avoid scratching the nonstick or
ceramic coating, do not scrub the pans with
metal pads or brushes or abrasive products.
Note: The pans may be left to soak or placed
in a dishwasher.
Metal columns and base (depending
on model): clean using only a soft, damp,
non-abrasive sponge. Wipe with a dry cloth.
Take care not to allow electrical parts
to come into contact with water. Never
submerse the appliance in water.
