BEFORE FIRST USE
- Remove all packing materials and stickers from the sandwich maker except for the rating label, which should remain on the unit.

- Place the unit on a flat, heat-resistant surface at least 5 cm (2 inches) away from the wall or other objects.
COOKING TIPS
-
Preheat the sandwich maker closed for best results. (Heat dissipates when preheating the unit open, resulting in a longer preheat time.)
-
For flatter sandwiches, press the handle down gently several times while cooking. Do NOT overpress, as this can cause fillings to leak out.
-
Experiment with a variety of breads and fillings. You can make sweet or savoury sandwiches based on your choice of fillings, and you can use all types of bread, such as bagels, brioche, pita and more (keep in mind they may not form sealed pockets like regular bread does). If using rounded breads like bagels, try flipping them inside out so the flat surface of the bread contacts the cooking plates.
-
For crispier, more flavourful sandwiches, brush the outside of your bread with oil or butter before grilling.
-
Crispiness also depends on the fillings used—those with a lot
of moisture result in a soggier sandwich. To avoid this, add breadcrumbs to moist fillings to absorb the excess liquid, or use thicker slices of bread. -
The sandwich maker’s unique plates are great for cooking and experimenting with a variety of foods. Try filling the plates with scrambled eggs and adding fillings, such as cooked meat or cheese, for perfect mini omelettes, or crack eggs directly into the plates for easy fried eggs.
-
For easy, delicious French toast, soak thick bread in a mixture of beaten eggs, milk and a little sugar. Remove the bread from the egg mixture, letting the excess drip back into the bowl, then place
the soaked bread in the sandwich maker and cook.
HOW TO USE THE SANDWICH MAKER
STEP 1
Prepare sandwich or food to be cooked.
STEP 2
Make sure the unit is closed, then plug it in. The red POWER light and green READY light will illuminate as the unit preheats.
STEP 3
When the green READY light turns off, carefully open the lid by pulling the
bottom of the latch away from the unit. If desired, brush cooking plates with
neutral-flavoured oil (NOT aerosol cooking spray).
STEP 4
Carefully place sandwich(es) on the lower cooking plate, aligned with the borders of the grid. Close the lid, pressing down slightly on the handle, until it rests evenly on top of the food. Cook until the food is heated to your liking.
STEP 5
When cooking is complete, open the lid and remove food using a silicone or wooden spatula or tongs. Do not use metal utensils, as they can scratch the nonstick surface.
STEP 6
To continue cooking, brush away any food residue on the plates and close the
lid. Reheat the unit until the green READY light turns back off before cooking
additional foods.
STEP 7
To stop cooking, unplug the unit. Let it cool completely before cleaning and
storing.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
- Unplug the unit and let it cool completely before cleaning.
- Use a soft bristle brush or paper towel to brush away any food residue from the plates.
- Gently wipe down the interior plates and the exterior (if necessary) with a damp cloth or paper towel and dry completely. CAUTION: Never immerse the sandwich maker, its cord or plug in water or any other liquid; do not use scouring pads or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the finish.
