Instructions for use

First use

• Before using the appliance for the first time:
– Clean the plates as specified in the MAINTENANCE section.
– Operate the appliance empty (for approximately 2 minutes, until the green light goes out) in a well ventilated room to remove odours and fumes due to possible processing residue on the inner parts of the appliance.
Disconnect the plug from the mains socket and allow the appliance to cool.

Note: when using this appliance for the first time, you may notice some smoke. This is normal and is due to initial heating of the inner components.

Toasted sandwich

Lightly coat the heating plates with a little butter or cooking oil.
Insert the plug into the mains socket. The red power light and the green light will come on.
Prepare the bread and fill the sandwich while the appliance is pre-heating.
Wait until the green light goes out. The appliance has reached the correct temperature for use.
Firstly place the slices of bread on the lower heating plate. Place your filling on these and cover with the second slices of bread.
For an optimal result, the filling should be contained within the edges of the bread slices.
Carefully lower the upper heating plate onto the bread until the appliance is fully clamped shut.
Open the appliance after 3-5 minutes and check whether the toasted sandwich is sufficiently ‘golden’. The cooking time required to obtain crispy sandwiches depends on the type of bread, the filling and on your personal taste.
Use a non-metallic tool (e.g. a wooden spatula) to remove the toasted sandwich. Do not use sharp or abrasive kitchen tools.
Disconnect the appliance from the mains socket.
Note: During cooking, the green light turns on and off to keep the device at the correct temperature.
