plate and do not use metal utensils to turn the ingredients. This may
damage the non-stick surface.

smoke escapes along the sides of the lid during grilling.

enough smoke chips to grill with smoke 5 times. You can buy more smoke chips
or differently flavoured smoke chips at www.barbecook.com/smokechips or in
specialised cooking shops.

food for 30 minutes. (Fig. 9)

not use the same (burned) smoke chips again.

4 To grill with smoke, set the temperature control to setting 5 and
close the glass lid, to prevent the smoke from escaping. (Fig. 4)

grilling with steam
You can grill with the steam produced by a liquid, for example water or
wine, for tender meat. See the recipe book or the Quick Start Guide for
more inspiration.
Caution: Only fill the steaming reservoir with water or alcoholic
beverages. Do not add any other liquids, such as oil or marinades.
Caution: Never use hot water or water that has just boiled to fill the
steaming reservoir, to prevent the reservoir from overflowing.
