[. . . ] Never immerse the appliance in water or any other liquid, for cleaning or any other purpose. If the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, your dealer's repair service, or a manufacturer-approved technician to avoid any possible danger. All repairs must be carried out by a competent and qualified tradesman. [. . . ] We therefore recommend setting the appliance to its highest temperature without food, for at least ten minutes (make sure the room is wellventilated as you do so). Place some paper towels under the appliance to avoid any spitting fat damaging tablecloths or surfaces. Powering and preheating Check that the appliance's voltage and power levels are compatible with the electric circuit in your home. Allow the appliance to preheat for: - 5-8 minutes for raclette skillets - 15 minutes for cooking stone or grill - 10 minutes for crêpe griddle For the first ten uses, place a little sunflower oil or finely-ground salt on the cooking stone after preheating and wipe with a soft cloth. - Prepare boiled potatoes in their skin and keep warm in a covered container or on the grill. - Put cheese in each of the raclette skillets and place them into the appliance. - When the cheese has turned a nice golden-brown colour, serve it warm or pour it over the potatoes. raclette is good with ham , Swiss beef (viande de Grison) , shallots and gherkins. • Cooking stone setting - Turn thermostat to desired temperature. During cooking, the stone will take 5-10 minutes to register and respond to any changes in temperature. - Each guest puts pieces of meat, fish, vegetables or fruit on the stone and cooks them to his or her taste. Do not use the cooking stone for frozen or deep frozen food, or for thick pieces of food (max 2cm). Do not allow acidic products (vinegar, mustard, pickles, gherkins…) to come into contact with the cooking stone. The appliance should not be left for more than 30 minutes without food: the cooking stone will become too hot and will not operate well. [. . . ] Cleaning The grill and crêpe plates, the skillets and the main body of the appliance can be cleaned in hot water with washing-up liquid (if desired). Instructions for cleaning the cooking stone: Each cooking stone is a unique natural element. A cooking stone that has been immersed in water may crack or break the next time it is used. [. . . ]
