IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using any electrical appliance, basic safety precautions should always be followed. Please read the instructions carefully before using this appliance.

• Always ensure that the voltage on the rating label corresponds to the mains voltage in your home.
• Incorrect operation and improper use can damage the appliance and cause injury to the user.
• The appliance is intended for domestic use only. Commercial use invalidates the warranty and the supplier can not be held responsible for injury or damage caused when using the appliance for any purpose other than that intended.
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
• Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
• Check the power cord and plug regularly for any damage. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
• Do not use the appliance if it has been dropped or damaged in any way. In case of damage, take the unit in for examination and/or repair by an authorised service agent.
• To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not immerse in or expose the plug or power cord to water or any other liquid.
• The temperature of accessible surfaces may be high when the appliance is operating.
• The appliances are not intended to be operated by means of an external timer or separate remote-control system.
• Never immerse the unit in water or any other liquid for cleaning purposes.

(CAUTION: Hot surface): The surfaces can get hot during use.

• Remove the plug from the socket by gripping the plug. Do not pull the cord to disconnect the appliance from the mains. Always unplug the unit when not in use, before cleaning or when adding or removing parts.
• The use of accessory attachments that are not recommended or supplied by the manufacturer may result in injuries, fire or electric shock.
• A short cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
• Do not let the cord hang over the edge of a table or counter. Ensure that the cord is not in a position where it can be pulled on inadvertently.
• Do not allow the cord to touch hot surfaces and do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner or in a heated oven.
• Do not use the appliance on a gas or electric cooking top or over or near an open flame.
• Use of an extension cord with this appliance is not recommended. However, if it is necessary to use an extension lead, ensure that the lead is suited to the power consumption of the appliance to avoid overheating of the extension cord, appliance or plug point. Do not place the extension cord in a position where it can be pulled or tripped over.

• Do not carry the appliance by the power cord.

• The manufacturer does not accept responsibility for any damage or injury caused by improper or incorrect use, or for repairs carried out by unauthorised personnel.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS NOTE:

When using the Sandwich Maker for the first time, the unit will emit a fine smoke. This is caused by the heating of the elements and the new components, and will stop after the first or second use.

1. Remove the product from the box and remove all packaging from the product.
2. Wipe the surface of the cooking plates with a damp cloth and then dry the plates with a soft dry cloth.
3. Place the product on an even cooking surface, and unclip the lock on the side of the unit.
4. Ensure the unit is closed, and then plug the power cord into the wall socket and switch on the power. The red light and green light will come on to indicate that the unit is on and heating.
5. Wipe the cooking plates with cooking oil, butter or margarine. This will protect the non-stick surface of the plates during the pre-heating time. Once the unit reaches cooking temperature, the green light will turn off. Should you wish to do so, you can wipe off the excess oil, butter or margarine with a kitchen towel – please take care as the cooking plates will now be hot.
6. Wait about five seconds, then lift the top cooking plate using the handle, and place the sandwich on the bottom cooking plate.
7. Lower the top cooking plate slowly. The top cooking plate is on a floating hinge, and will automatically adjust to the thickness of the sandwich in the unit.
8. Wait until the sandwich is toasted, usually about 6-8 minutes depending on desired colour.
9. Once the sandwich is cooked, lift the top cooking plate using the handle and remove the sandwich. Always use wooden or plastic cooking utensils to remove the sandwich, as this will extend the life of the non-stick coating on the plates.
10. Close the top cooking plate. Should you wish to make more sandwiches, allow the unit to re-heat to cooking temperature, and follow the same procedure. Should you be finished with the unit, remove the plug from the wall socket.

HINTS FOR BETTER SANDWICHES

Breads:

• This unit can be used to toast most types of bread: White, Wholemeal, Multigrain, Rye, Raisin Loaf, Focaccia, Turkish Bread, Baguettes and bread rolls.
• Sweet breads, such as Raisin Bread and Brioche, that contain a high sugar content will tend to brown quicker.
• The Sandwich Press is ideal for toasting plain breads or Turkish breads with no fillings or toppings. Fillings:
  CAUTION: Always take care when biting into sandwiches as fillings may burn. Fat Free Snacks: It is NOT necessary to use any butter or margarine on the outside of the toasted snack because the sandwich press has Non-Stick Flat Plates.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

• After use, wait for the unit to cool properly before cleaning and storage.
• Wipe the inside and edges of the heating plate with absorbent paper towel or a soft cloth.
• Should any filling be difficult to remove, pour a little cooking oil onto the heating plate and re-heat the unit for two minutes. Wait for the unit to cool and then try to remove the filling again.
• In case of technical problems, do not attempt to repair it yourself. Return the appliance to an authorised service facility for examination, adjustment or repair. Always insist on the use of original spare parts. Failure to comply with the above mentioned precautions and instructions could affect the safe operation of this machine.
• This appliance is for domestic use only and is not user-serviceable.
• Do not open or change any parts by yourself. Please refer to a qualified electrical service department or return to the supplier for servicing if necessary.
• Always remember to unplug the unit from the electrical outlet when not in use and before cleaning.
• The body of the appliance should be cleaned with a damp cloth. Do not let water enter the appliance or the stand.
• Do not use bleach, solvents or other abrasive substances to clean your appliance, as it can damage the finish.
• To remove the stubborn spots/marks, wipe the surfaces with a cloth slightly dampened in soapy water or mild non-abrasive cleaner. Rinse and dry with a clean, dry cloth.
