OPERATION
•
Before using your appliance for the first time, take away the packaging materials
and clean the pans thoroughly with a damp cloth.
•
Hold the stone under running water (you can use a sponge to improve the
cleaning). Never use abrasive or cleaning products. Rinse thoroughly and let dry.
•
Place the polished side of the stone to the top. Make sure the stone is correctly
placed on the base.
•
Oil the polished surface of the stone with a kitchen paper or with a small brush
coated with heat-resistant table oil (olive or groundnut oil). Let the oil penetrate the
stone and then take away the superfluous oil.
•
When it is first switched on, the heating element may smell and emit some smoke.
This is normal; the grease that may have adhered to the element during
manufacture is burning off. We therefore recommend that you heat up the
appliance for about 10 minutes without any food (ventilate the room during this
period). This phenomenon will no more occur in the future.
•
Always preheat the stone during more or less 25 minutes before using the appliance.
•
In order to prevent grease stains on your table cloth, don't forget to put another,
easy-washing cloth under your appliance.
•
To switch on your appliance, after having read and observed all important
safeguards, put the plug in an earthed power outlet and press the ON/OFF switch.
The switch will light up, indicating that the appliance is in operation.
Hint: When your appliance is warming up and the raclette pans are clean, you can put
them on the appliance to warm them up but never leave raclette pans that have
already been used in the appliance, as the food residues might burn.
IMPORTANT REMARKS
•
The stone is a natural product. Small fissures can appear during use. It is a normal
phenomenon not covered by the guarantee.
•
If the stone has been kept in a damp environment, heat it up slowly (2 to 3 hours) in
an oven at 100°C or let it two days at ambient temperature.
•
Avoid shocks when you move the stone. Also avoid thermal shocks.
•
Never place too large, too cold or frozen food on a hot stone.
•
Never sprinkle a hot stone with cold water, it could crack.
•
To avoid burns or fissures on the stone, never move a still hot stone.
•
Only place food on the stone. Never place heavy objects on it.
•
If you use soused meat, you have to know that the spices will penetrate the stone.
This will decolourise it and then give a taste to the grilled meat.
STONE GRILL
•
Put the raclette-grill in the middle of the table.
•
Before grilling, sprinkle the stone with salt.
•
Use only wooden or plastic utensils in order not to damage the coating.
•
When heating (above all in the presence of oil), the stone can give off a smell and a
light smoke. This phenomenon disappears after a couple of minutes. The stone can
also lose its colour and become darker. This decolouration does not have any
influence on the functioning of the appliance.
