Before First Use

Read all instructions and safety information carefully before first use. Please retain this information for future reference.

1. Carefully unpack the appliance. Remove all packaging materials.

2. Place the appliance on a flat, level surface. Open the sandwich maker lid.

3. Wipe the cooking plates with a damp cloth so that they are clean.
   Note: Use a small amount of cooking oil to season the cooking plates, and wipe off any excess with a dry cloth. This only needs to be done once.

4. Wipe the outside of the housing with a soft damp cloth. NEVER immerse the power cord and plug in water or any other liquid.

5. Close the appliance.

6. Plug into the wall outlet and pre-heat for 10 minutes.
   Note: During this initial phase some smoke may be emitted from the sandwich maker. This is normal.

Using Your Appliance

Preparing Your Appliance:

1. Connect the unit to the electrical supply. The red indicator light will turn on to show that the appliance is pre-heating.
2. Close the lid while the pre-heating occurs. During this time prepare your sandwich ingredients.
3. The appliance is ready for use once the green indicator goes out. This will take approximately 5 minutes.

Note: Initially, the appliance may release a slight harmless odor and smoke. This is a normal occurrence caused by the initial heating of the heating elements and should not re-occur.

Preparing sandwiches:

1. Butter the bread and place the desired fillings within.
2. Lift the safety catch and open the sandwich maker. Place the sandwiches on the heating plates.
3. Close the casing to ensure that the sandwiches are cooked evenly.
4. Lock the safety catch.
5. Normal cooking times will be 3-6 minutes for each sandwich. The red light will turn on and off as the thermostat keeps the sandwich maker at the proper baking temperature.

CAUTION: The appliance is not to be operated in the open position.
CAUTION: The cooking surface is hot; handle with care.

Serving your sandwiches:

1. Remove the sandwiches from the heating plates with a plastic or wooden spatula.
2. Be careful with your sandwiches, as the fillings will be quite hot.
3. Allow the sandwiches to cool for a few minutes before enjoying.

Tips:

• Always preheat your sandwich maker fully.
• Ensure the lid of the sandwich maker is down whilst preheating.
• Butter, margarine and olive oil can all be used to coat the outside of your bread.
• Light/Low fat versions of margarines are not recommended as they do not withstand heat.
• Fillings: Try to use canned or pre-cooked fruit as fresh fruit may give off excessive juices when heated. Be careful when biting into toasted sandwiches containing fillings  such as cheese and tomato or jam as they retain heat and can burn if eaten too quickly.
• Processed cheeses tend to ‘run’ under higher temperatures.
• Pat moist ingredients (such as sliced tomatoes and fruits) dry before adding to your sandwich.
• Allow hot sandwiches to rest for 2 -3 minutes after removing them from the sandwich maker. This helps the fillings cool slightly, meaning they will run less.

Troubleshooting

lights only indicate power, and that the sandwich maker has reached the correct temperature. Ensure you do not leave the sandwich maker during use.
How long will it take to make a toasted sandwich?| We recommend toasting your sandwiches for around five minilab. Generally the sandwiches will be ready approximately 3 – 6 minutes after adding them to the sandwich maker, depending on your preference.
Why are my fillings spilling over during cooking?| You may have added too many fillings to your sandwiches. Ensure that no fillings are ‘overflowing’ when you add the sandwich to the Sandwich Maker. Fillings such as cheese and jam reach very high temperatures when heated and can spill over.
