****NOTE
At all times the lid must be locked closed and locked into place. When using the toastie maker for the first time you may notice a fine smoke haze. This is caused by the heating of some of the components. There is no need for concern.

WARNING
Steam will be ejected from between the cooking plates when the lid is closed. Be careful not to make contact with the steam as it may cause burns.

Hints & Tips

BREAD

The toastie maker is designed for super and regular sized bread. With extra large cooking plates, it cuts and seals the toastie. Most types of bread can be used; white, wholemeal, kibbled wheat, wholegrain, raisin loaf and so on. When using raisin bread, brioche or other sweet breads which contain high sugar content, remember they will brown faster.

FILLINGS
Try to use canned or pre-cooked fruit as fresh fruit may give off excessive juices when heated. Be careful when biting into toasties containing fillings such as cheese and tomato or jam as they retain heat and can burn if eaten too quickly. One quarter cup of filling for each toastie is sufficient. Do not overfill your toasties.

BUTTER OR MARGARINE

For best results we recommend to butter the outside of the bread ie place filling between the unbuttered sides of bread. If you are on a low fat diet or kilojoule counting, the outside of the bread may be left unbuttered. Noting you may get a lighter toasting result.
For sweet snacks, a light sprinkling of caster sugar over the outer buttered sides of the bread will make them extra delicious. For extra flavour use herb or garlic butter for spreading on bread.

SEASON THE PLATES

Season the plates occasionally to prevent sticking and to make cleaning easier. To season, brush the cooking plates with a little vegetable oil and rub off the excess with absorbent paper. Do this after preheating the unit.
Do not use spray on non-stick coatings as this will affect the performance of the non-stick surface on the cooking plates.

REHEATING

If the toastie is not being eaten immediately, place it on a paper napkin to absorb condensation. To keep for longer, place on a rack in an oven-proof dish to keep warm in a low oven, about 100°C. The toastie will keep hot for up to 20 minutes this way, but will then begin to dry out.

Care & Cleaning

Before cleaning, ensure the power is switched off and then remove the power plug from the power outlet.
Allow your toastie maker to cool before cleaning however, the toastie maker is easier to clean when still slightly warm.
Always clean your toastie maker after each use to prevent a build-up of baked- on foods. Wipe cooking plates with a soft, damp cloth to remove food residue.

WARNING
Do not immerse any part of the Breville Toastie maker or the power cord in water or any other liquid.

PFOA-FREE NON-STICK COATING

Cooking on a non-stick surface minimises the need for oil as food does not stick and cleaning is easier.
Any discolouration that may occur will only detract from the appearance of the toastie maker and will not affect the cooking performance.
When cleaning the non-stick coating, do not use metal (or other abrasive) scourers. Wash with warm soapy water and dry thoroughly.
Remove stubborn residue using a damp cloth.

NOTE
The cooking plates, hinges and overflow moat are coated with a non-stick surface, do not use abrasives.

STORAGE

To store your toastie maker:

  1. Ensure the power is off and then unplug power cord from the power outlet.
  2. Allow the toastie maker to fully cool.
  3. Wrap the power cord in the cord wrap area below the toastie maker.
  4. Store on a flat, dry level surface.
  5. Do not place anything on top of the toastie maker.

WARNING
The handle is designed for opening and closing the toastie maker during cooking. It should not be used for moving or carrying the toastie maker. When moving the toastie maker, allow the unit to fully cool down and carry the unit via the base.
