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 and green pilot
lights will come on to indicate that the appliance is switched on.
•
Prepare your sandwich while the unit is heating.
•
The green pilot light will go off 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.
•
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 2 to 3 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 when finished.
HINTS FOR BEST RESULTS
•
Always preheat before use. Plug the cord into the 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.
CLEANING
•
Before cleaning, unplug and wait for the appliance to cool down.
•
Wipe the outside only with a slightly moistened cloth ensuring that no moisture, oil or
grease enters the cooling slots.
•
Wipe the inside and the edges of the plate with a paper towel or a soft cloth.
•
Do not clean the inside or outside with any abrasive scouring pad or steel wool as this
will damage the finish.
•
Do not immerse in water or any other liquid.
