5. Operating Instructions

The Korona 45060 Raclette XXL is designed for easy and enjoyable cooking.

1. Preheating: Plug in the appliance. Turn the temperature control knob clockwise to the desired heat setting (e.g., 'MAX' for quick preheating). The indicator light will illuminate, signaling that the appliance is heating. Allow 5-10 minutes for the grill plate and pans to preheat.
2. Using the Grill Plate: Once preheated, place food items such as sliced meats, vegetables, or seafood directly onto the non-stick grill plate. Adjust the temperature as needed for optimal cooking.
3. Using the Raclette Pans: Prepare small portions of ingredients (e.g., cheese, diced vegetables, bacon) in the individual raclette pans. Slide the pans into the designated slots beneath the heating element. The heat from above will cook and melt the contents. Use the wooden spatulas to remove food from the pans.
4. Temperature Control: The continuously adjustable temperature control allows you to fine-tune the heat for different foods and preferences. Turn the knob towards 'MAX' for higher heat and 'MIN' for lower heat.
5. Indicator Light: The indicator light will cycle on and off during operation, indicating that the heating element is maintaining the set temperature.
6. After Use: Once cooking is complete, turn the temperature control knob to the 'MIN' position and unplug the appliance from the wall outlet. Allow the grill to cool down completely before cleaning.

2. Grill Plate and Pans: The non-stick grill plate and individual raclette pans are removable. Wash them by hand with warm, soapy water and a soft sponge. Avoid abrasive cleaners or metal scouring pads, as these can damage the non-stick coating. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely.
