3. CONFORMITY OF USE
Use the device only to cook meat, bacon, fish, hamburgers, sausages, onions, shellfishes, vegetables..., and also for fried eggs and omelettes…
4. WAY OF FUNCTIONING
This griddle plate is fitted with steel plate (10 mm deep) for a perfect cooking. The plate’s smooth surface provides direct heat transfer to the food being cooked, without heat loss at the centre as in the periphery thanks to star-shaped burners (1 for PSR
400 G, 2 for PSR 600 G and 3 for PSR 900 G ) that cover the entire cooking surface.
To turn on and preheat the plate, just switch on the burner by pressing on the power control knob (n°1 on picture) opposite the star position for a few seconds and on the piezo (n°2 on picture) several times if required.
If the piezo (n°2 on picture) no longer generates the required series of sparks, you can use a gas lighter or a long matchstick by holding it near the oblong hole (n°3 on picture) and keeping the knob pressed (n°1 on picture) facing the star position as indicated above.

While cooking, the temperature can be regulated using the control knob (n°1 on picture) from high flame to low flame in order to avoid over-cooking.
A safety thermocouple cuts the gas supply if the burner is extinguished. The low flame of the appliance is pre-adjusted in the factory, it must not be changed. This extinction can mainly occur when there is a lot of wind. In this particular case, just repeat the switching-on procedures described on previous page.
Your appliance is equipped with a removable collector tray (n° 5 on picture) to drain juice and fats. It must be emptied regularly. It is recommended to pour a little water in the tray when you start cooking to facilitate maintenance and to avoid the solidification and accumulation of fats at the bottom of the tray.
Never use the appliance without the drip tray (n°5 on picture).
5. FUNCTIONING / HANDLING a) Installation/Assembly:
- Unpack carefully the machine from its packaging.
- Place the griddle plate on a plane and heatproof surface.
- Never place the device near a wall or near a partition makes of combustible materials even if it is very well isolated.
- A distance of minimum 10 cm with the partition or the wall is necessary.
- Remove the red sticker from the plate and the protective film around the machine without forgetting the one on the drip tray (n°5 on picture). Use a solvent like acetone or other solvents to remove these labels.
b) First starting :
During the first use, warm your machine up outside during about 30 min to evacuate residual smokes of manufacturing oil from the metallic parts. This may emit a slight smell for a few moments.
First cleaning
Clean the device before the first use. (See 6 Cleaning)

Never use the appliance without its juice collector tray (n°5 on picture)
Switching-on
Press the power control knob (n°1 on picture) for a few seconds.
Press on the piezo (n°2 on picture) to light the burner.
Keep the control knob (n°1 on picture) pressed for some more seconds.
The burner then remains lit and it is now possible to increase the power by turning the power control knob (n°1 on picture).
Grease the plate before each cooking.
Temperature setting
Once the burner is lit; set the appliance to the desired power by turning the control knob (n°1 on picture).
It is not necessary to leave the device switched on at full power. It is necessary to adapt the temperature to products to be cooked to limit the gas consumption.
Stopping the appliance
Set each control knob (n°1 on picture) to 0: the appliance is completely switchedoff.
Close the butane or propane cartridge
Clean the appliance. (See 6. Cleaning)

d) Breakdown / repair:
In case of breakdown or of damaged part, please call your after-sales service and confide any technical operation to qualified person.
When you contact the after-sales service of your distributor or your store, give him the complete reference of your device (commercial name, type and serial number).
This information appears on the visible descriptive plate behind the device.
6. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Cut the gas supply.
The plate is still hot:
- Drain most of the fats and cooking juice with the wooden spatula towards the outlet (n°4 on picture) in front of the plate.
- Let the plate cool down and clean it with warm soapy water and a slightly abrasive pad. Collect the cooking residues in the drip tray (n°5 on picture).
- Then use some white vinegar to neutralize the cooking smells.
- Finally, wipe the plate before putting it away or using it again.
Do not put ice cubes or other on the plate that is still hot (deglazing), which may lead to a violent thermal shock, permanent damage and coloration of the plate.
The plate is cold:
- Clean the plate with a wet sponge and some dishwashing liquid.
- Wipe the plate with a soft and clean cloth.
- Remove and empty the tray (n°5 on picture) filled with fats and cooking juice.
- Clean the tray (n°5 on picture) with a wet sponge and some dishwashing liquid
(can also be washed in a machine) and wipe.
- After the tray (n°5 on picture) dries, put it back in the appliance.
- Clean the outer case of the appliance without using any abrasive product.
- Never clean the appliance under a water jet, the infiltrations may cause irreparable damage to the appliance.
Attention to the capacity of the drip tray (n°5 on picture): consider emptying it regularly, any overflowing inside the appliance may cause irreparable damage.
During a prolonged non-use, we recommend you strongly to keep the device shielded from the humidity .
