Grilling on the griddle cooking zone

A glass ceramic hob is suitable for grilling food direct on a hot

cooking zone. Food to be grilled, such as steaks or sausages, is

placed on the hot cooking zone.

Before preparing the first meals clean the griddle by means of a

moist cloth and a bit washing-up liquid. Afterwards wipe it dry

with a non-fluffy cloth.

• Please do not use olive oil for grilling. Burnt in residues of olive

oil can only be removed with great difficulties.

• Preheat the griddle immediately before grilling for approx. 5

minutes in grill level 9. Place the food directly onto the glass

ceramic. Do not use aluminium foil or similar.

• Grill the meat on both sides at grill level 9 until it can be taken

off from the griddle. In this way the meat juices remain in the

grill goods.

• Then switch down, if required (e.g. level 6), and grill the meat

until it is done. Toss thick pieces of meat or sausages several

times.

• If the griddle has been operated at a low temperature setting,

preheat it at temperature setting 9 again before putting new

meat on it.

• Do not grease the griddle with oil. Lean meat can be greased

with oil. When grilling very fatty foods, carefully dab away the

fat using a paper kitchen towel. In case of pickled meat,

remove surplus grease and coarse spices (like onions, leaves

or thyme).

• Please keep in mind that large quantities of meat and

sausages need longer grilling times than small quantities. We

therefore recommend to grill several smaller quantities one

after the other.

• Remove the grilling residuals by means of the cleaning scraper

after every grilling procedure.

Residual heat display

The glass ceramic hob is equipped with an H as a

residual heat display.

As long as the H lights up after the cooking zone has

been switched off, the residual heat can be used for melting food

or for keeping food warm. The cooking zone may still be hot

when the letter H no longer lights up. Risk of burns!
