PARTS AND FEATURES

- Non-Stick Surface – makes perfect sandwiches every time.
- Indicator Lights – maintain perfect cooking temperature.
- Latch – allows to open and close the unit.
Can be used to create stuffed sandwiches with delicious fillings. They can be
filled with anything from ham and cheese or pizza sauce and mozzarella to your
favorite fruit filling. Also, you may use cake or muffin batter to create mini
cakes or cornbread.
CAUTION: Use caution when cooking. The appliance must always be
positioned horizontally during use. Hot oil, grease or juices may splatter
when cooking. Do not touch any hot surfaces. Do not attempt to cut food on the
unit’s surface during the cooking process. NOTE: Before cooking food for the
first time, operate the appliance without food in order to burn off the
residue on the surface. You may notice a slight odor and/or smoke coming off
the unit’s surface (first use only). This is normal and will go away in a few
minutes.
- Make sure the appliance is clean and dry. Place the appliance on a leveled heat-resistant surface, away from hot objects and open flames.
- With the unit in the closed position, plug the appliance into a power outlet. The red and green lights will turn on indicating that the power is ON and the unit is heating up.
- Keep the unit closed while it’s preheating. NOTE: When using messy fillings like fruit preserves, Sloppy Joe mix and such, prepare your sandwich ahead of time. When placing fillings on the bread, do not place too much of filling in the middle, as the unit will press, seal and separate the halves. For added flavor, brush the top slice of the sandwich with melted butter or spread. Set aside.
- Once the unit is preheated and ready to use (after about 3-5 minutes) the green light will turn off (red light remains on). You can make 2 stuffed sandwiches at a time.
- Lift open the cover of the unit. If you have already made the sandwich, place it with the buttered side down on the bottom half of the unit. Butter the top slice with melted butter.
- If you haven’t prepared a sandwich in advance, place a plain or buttered slice of bread down on a plate. Then, place filling on the bottom slice. When placing fillings on the bread, do not place too much of filling in the middle, as the unit will press, seal and separate the halves. Top with another slice of bread, you can butter it as well, for added flavor.
- Both sides of the bread will be in contact with the plates. NOTE: If making muffin/cornbread, you may grease the bottom of each triangular shape (4). Then fill each triangular shape (of the bottom plate) about¾ of the way.
- Carefully lower the unit’s cover, close it. Do not force shut. Be careful, keep your hands away from the unit as steam may escape from between the closed plates. NOTE: During cooking, the green light will cycle ON and OFF while the thermostat keeps the unit at the right temperature. Refer to table below for cooking times.
- After about 2-3 minutes, open the unit and check if the sandwich needs to be cooked more. If you are satisfied, remove the sandwich using plastic or wooden spatula, otherwise close the lid again and wait for 1 minute. Use 1-minute increments when adding cooking time for best results.
- Close the lid to preserve the heat until you are ready for the next sandwich. Wait for green light to turn off again to place additional foods. Red light will always remain on while the unit is plugged in.
- If you are done with the unit, unplug the unit from the wall outlet and let it cool.
SUGGESTED COOKING TIMES

- For best results, always remember to pre-heat the grill, so it is hot.
HELPFUL HINTS

- For soft or liquid sandwich fillings choose bread with medium-thick slices, otherwise use regular bread slices.
- When making sandwiches, you may use flavored spreads for best taste.
- If making sandwiches with fruit fillings, you may sprinkle a little sugar on the outside for extra crispiness.

FAQs
Does this sandwich maker make four sandwiches at once?****
Yes, it does.
Does it make two sandwiches at once?****
No, it does not.
Is the sandwich maker dishwasher safe?****
Yes, it is.
What voltage does this press support? 110V or 220V?****

The recipe book states to cut pizza dough into 6 equal sections, yet the sandwich grill only has 4 sections. What guves?****
4 sections.
Is it had a timer or shutoff?****
No timer. Just red and green lights. Red means it’s not ready/hot enough and Green means it is ready/hot enough but depending on what you are cooking (I tried the included banana bread recipe) you end up cycling through the red and green lights a couple times. Had to set a separate timer, it does not shutoff on its own.

No, you can make only one if you wish.
Is this UL listed?****
Yes, this is UL listed.
My lid feels really loose, is that normal for this brand?****
My lid is not loose. The latch seems loose and takes some time to get used to. I think the “looseness” of the latch allows for thicker bread. Just my opinion.

No, the cord doesn’t separate from the unit and is short.
we have 220 volt the product work with that volt or need a transformer?****
You need a converter to change 110v to 220v
