How to better use my product

How can I avoid smoke and odour from my barbecue?

Always keep the drip tray filled with water (depending the model). This allows any running off juices and fat to dissipate in the water thereby preventing smoking and flare-ups.You will see some smoke during the first use. This is normal and will not continue for long. If you continue to see smoke, be sure the grill plate has been cleaned properly.

Can I use foil for specific recipes or potatoes?

No, you should never use foil on the product - "foil wrapped parcel" style cooking is not allowed.

Why do I need to add water in the water reservoir?

The water you add for the cooking process will create a cool zone, below the cooking surface, into which all the grease will fall and be kept, preventing it from burning on a hot surface and causing fumes or flare-ups.

What utensils can I use on my barbecue?

Only use wooden, plastic or thermoplastic utensils. Metal utensils can damage the non-stick coating on the contact grill.

How to prevent having flames that burn the food?

• Make sure that you have filled the water tray up to its minimum level (1.5L) before starting to cook.• If you do several cookings in a row, make sure that the water level in the tray is kept at the minimum.• Make sure you clean your product after each use: clean the grill to remove cooking grease as well as drain and clean the water tray.• Never place aluminium foil in the water tray, between the heating element and the grid or directly on the cooking grid.• Some foods with a superficial skin (whole sausages, tongue, poultry) or large pieces of meat can splatter by trapping boiling liquids. This is why we advise you to prick them before cooking with a knife or a fork.We remind you not to leave your product unattended with food in use (preheating and/or cooking).

What are the precautions to be taken when doing several cookings in a row?

If you are doing several cookings in a row, make sure that the water level in the tray is kept to a minimum.
