USER MAINTENANCE
You may want to place an easy-to-clean tablecloth under the appliance to
protect the surface of your table while cooking.
In order to prevent damage to the nonstick coating, use a spatula to lift the
grilled food off the grill plate. Never use metal utensils, as they will scratch the
nonstick grill plate. Instead, use only wooden or heatproof plastic utensils.
Never leave plastic utensils in contact with the hot grill plate.
We recommend that you use the plastic spatulas supplied with the appliance
to take cheese out of the raclette dishes. To avoid damage to the coated
surface, never use knives or other metallic objects to cut food in the individual
pans or on the grill plates.
Do not leave the pans on the hot grill plate after use. Leftover food in the
pan will be burnt on, making cleaning more difficult. Use the supports
provided instead.
CLEANING AND CARE
CAUTION: BEFORE CLEANING APPLIANCE, MAKE SURE IT HAS
COOLED DOWN COMPLETELY.
Once you have finished cooking, turn the temperature control knob to the
OFF setting. Allow the unit to cool down completely and unplug the appliance
from wall outlet.
If you have been cooking seafood, wipe the cooking plate with lemon juice to
prevent seafood flavor from transferring to the next recipe.
The grill plate, individual cheese dishes, raclette holders and plastic spatulas
can be placed in the dishwasher, or washed by hand, using a soft sponge or
cloth and hot water.
Unplug the unit and allow the raclette to cool before cleaning. The base
can be wiped clean with a soft, dry cloth. Never use steel scouring pads,
abrasives or solvents.
Attention: Never immerse the appliance in water. Do not allow water to get
into the appliance.
STORAGE
Always dry and place grill on base before storing. Ensure that the base and
cooking plate are correctly positioned. Raclette accessories are designed to
stack neatly for convenient storage.
Store in a cool dry place.
TIPS AND HINTS
Many of the recipes that are listed are geared for four people, using two
dishes per person. However, all recipes are very easy to double, using one
dish per person.
Also, the recipes included are intended to inspire ideas for new recipes.
One of the great features of the Cuisinart
®
Raclette is that the possibilities
for recipe ideas and food combinations are endless. Many ingredients,
seasonings, and styles of cuisine can be substituted in each recipe.
It is important not to overload raclette dishes before using the grill.
You must be careful not to have any ingredients touch the grill directly, or be
too close to the heat source above, to prevent them from browning too quickly
or burning.
For all recipes it is best to have all your ingredients and side dishes ready
before you begin cooking.
Both thinly sliced and grated cheeses work best with the raclette because
they are easiest to melt.
