(*) Competent qualified electrician: after-sales

USE
 Protective coating burn off will cause smoking on first use. This is NOT harmful and will
disappear after a short time.
 When using for the first time, wipe the surface of the plates with a damp cloth, then dry. You
may season the plates with butter, margarine or cooking fat. Since the sandwich maker has
a non-stick surface, the use of butter or oil is optional.
 Close the sandwich maker and plug into the electrical outlet. The red pilot light will come
on to indicate that the appliance is switched on.
 Prepare your sandwich while the unit is heating.
 The green pilot light will come on as well when the cooking temperature is reached.
During use, this ready light will come on and off regularly. This simply means that the
thermostat is regulating the appliance's temperature.
 Attention: during operation, the baking plates heat up. Pay attention not to get burned.
Fully open the sandwich maker. Place a slice of bread in the bottom half with the

buttered side against the plate.
 Fill the sandwich.
 Add the top slice with the buttered side up and carefully close the toaster. Do not force
shut. Steam will be ejected from between the plates; make sure that fingers do not come
into contact with the steam.
 Lock the two halves with the wire clip while toasting.
 Your sandwich will be toasted in 3 to 4 minutes or longer to suit your taste. Open the
toaster and remove the sandwich using a plastic or wooden spatula. Never use a metal
knife as this may damage the non-stick coating.
 Close the lid to preserve the heat until you are ready to toast the next sandwiches.
 Prepare additional sandwiches if desired while the others are cooking.
 Unplug the appliance when finished and leave it open to allow it to cool down.
HINTS FOR BEST RESULTS
 Always preheat before use. Plug cord into power outlet while preparing the fillings.
 Flavoured butter may also be used.
 For additional flavour use bacon dripping. Brush drippings on the outside of the bread.
