How to Make Panini Sandwiches
1. With the Panini Plates installed, plug into any 120V AC outlet. The red
indicator light will come on and remain on as long as the unit is plugged
into the outlet.
2. Close the lid until the unit has preheated and the clear indicator light
comes on.
3. Open the lid and place the sandwiches on the Panini Cooking Plate.
NOTE: If the sandwiches are too thick, flatten down before placing them
in the Panini Maker. Close the lid. The adjustable hinge at the back of the
unit will adjust to the height of the sandwich. NOTE: DO NOT FORCE
THE LID CLOSED IF SANDWICHES ARE TOO THICK
4. The cooking time will depend on the type and thickness of bread and the
desired amount of doneness. Check sandwiches by lifting the lid.
5. NOTE: All parts of the unit, except the handle, will be very hot during
and after cooking. Do not touch any parts of the unit, except the handle,
until the unit has cooled.
Helpful Hints
1. It is not necessary to use butter or margarine on the outside of sandwiches
although a thin coating of butter or margarine on the outer surfaces of
the bread will speed up browning and enhance flavour.
2. Most types of bread can be used. Breads with a high sugar content
will brown more quickly.
3. The Cooking Plates have a non-stick coating. Do not use non-stick
cooking sprays.
