USE
• Protective coating burn off will cause smoking on first use. This is NOT harmful.
• 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 appliance has a
non-stick coated surface, the use of butter or oil is optional.

SANDWICH FUNCTION
• Prepare your sandwich while the unit is heating.
• 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. Close the top cooking plate and it will automatically
adjust to the thickness of the sandwich because of the floating hinge. This will ensure an even
toasting.
• Your sandwich will be toasted in 2 to 3min or longer to suit your taste. Open the appliance
and remove 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.
GRILL FUNCTION
• Lightly brush grids with butter, margarine or cooking oil to avoid that the foods stick to the
plates.
• When the appliance has reached the desired temperature, open it and put the foods in on
the grill plate. Make sure the foods are not too thick, so that you can close the appliance. The
cooking time depends on the type of food you are grilling. To avoid burning the foods, check
regularly during the cooking process.
• When grilling is finished, unplug the appliance and leave it open to allow it to cool down.
CLEANING
• Before cleaning, unplug and wait for the appliance and the plates to cool down. Allow to cool
with the Top Non-Stick Coated Toasting Plate open.
• Wipe the inside and the edges of the platen with kitchen roll, absorbent paper towelling or a
soft cloth.
• Should any filling be difficult to remove, pour a little cooking oil onto the platen and wipe off
after 5mins when the food has softened.
• Wipe the outside with only a slightly moistened cloth ensuring that no moisture, oil or grease
enter the cooling slots.
• 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.
