Important Safeguards

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and injury to persons, including the following:

• Read all instructions before operating the appliance.
• Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
• To protect against electrical shock, do not immerse cord, plugs, or the appliance body in water or other liquid.
• Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
• Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before putting on or taking off parts.
• Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, or after the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner. Contact OVENTE customer service for examination, repair, or adjustment.
• The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the appliance manufacturer may cause injuries.
• Do not use outdoors.
• Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.
• Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.
• Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance containing hot oil or other hot liquids.
• Always attach plug to appliance first, then plug cord into the wall outlet. To disconnect, turn any control to "off", then remove plug from wall outlet.
• Do not use appliance for other than intended use.
• A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
• Extension cords may be used if care is exercised in their use. If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance.

Setup

1. Unpacking: Carefully remove all packaging materials and inspect the grill for any damage. Retain packaging for future storage or transport if needed.

3. Assembly:
   • Place the main unit on a stable, heat-resistant, and dry surface. Ensure there is adequate ventilation around the appliance.
   • Position the non-stick cooking plate securely on top of the main unit, ensuring it sits flat and covers the heating elements.

Temperature Control

The grill features an adjustable temperature control knob to select the desired heat level. The knob typically ranges from a minimum (MIN) setting for warming to a maximum (MAX) setting for searing.

1. Preheating: Turn the temperature control knob to your desired setting. The indicator light will illuminate, signaling that the grill is heating. Allow 5-10 minutes for the grill to preheat thoroughly. The indicator light may cycle on and off during operation as the grill maintains the set temperature.
2. Cooking:
   • Grilling/Griddling: Place food directly onto the non-stick cooking plate. Use the ribbed section for grill marks and the flat section for griddling items like pancakes or eggs.
   • Raclette Pans: Place ingredients such as cheese, vegetables, or small portions of meat into the mini raclette pans and slide them into the slots beneath the main cooking plate. Monitor closely as cooking times will vary.
3. Adjusting Temperature: Adjust the knob as needed during cooking to achieve optimal results. Lower settings are suitable for keeping food warm or melting cheese, while higher settings are for searing meats.
4. Finishing: Once cooking is complete, turn the temperature control knob to the "OFF" position and unplug the appliance from the wall outlet. Allow the grill to cool completely before cleaning.

Maintenance and Cleaning

Regular cleaning ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your OVENTE Electric Indoor Grill.

1. Cool Down: Always ensure the grill is unplugged and completely cool before attempting to clean any part.
2. Remove Components: Carefully remove the non-stick cooking plate and the raclette pans from the main unit.
3. Cleaning Cooking Plate and Raclette Pans:
   • These components are dishwasher-safe for convenient cleaning.
   • Alternatively, wash them by hand using warm, soapy water and a non-abrasive sponge or cloth. Avoid using metal scouring pads or harsh abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the non-stick coating.
   • Rinse thoroughly and dry completely before reassembling or storing.
4. Cleaning Main Unit:
   • Wipe the exterior of the main unit with a soft, damp cloth.
   • Do not immerse the main unit or its power cord in water or any other liquid.
