Need Help - Black and Decker Perfect Pockets PM100 Serie Manual De Usario

3. Close the unit and snap the Handle Latch securely over the Handle. Depending on your
filling, the kind of dough/bread, and your personal preference for crisping/browning,
you will need to cook from about 4 to 15 minutes. Generally, bread slices take about 4
minutes, most other pastries take 6-7 minutes, and puff pastry takes 12-15 minutes.
4. During cooking, the Temperature Control Light will cycle off and on indicating that the
unit is maintaining the cooking temperature. When done, use a pot holder or oven
mitt to unlock the Handle and open the unit. Be careful as you pull the unit open;
there may some spattering.
5. If some fillings ooze out or your pockets stick after cooking, use a wooden spoon to free
the food. Do not use a metal utensil as it may scratch or damage the non-stick finish.
6. You can cook a second round of pockets immediately. No need to cool the unit down
first. Unplug the unit when you are finished.
Tips For Getting Perfect Pockets
1. Place a large shallow tray or cookie sheet under the Snack Maker to prevent fillings
and fat from leaking onto the countertop.
2. Use non-stick cooking spray or brush the cooking surfaces lightly with vegetable oil
to prevent sticking.
3. For repeated cycles, wipe any filling that might have oozed onto the cooking surfaces
with a damp sponge. Food may stick if the surfaces aren't kept clean. You can also
re-coat with oil or re-spray.
4. When using pastry dough, be sure it's not frozen. You can thaw it in a microwave on
the defrost setting. Follow manufacturer's directions.
5. With some crusts that expand during cooking, it may be difficult to open the Snack
Maker after cooking. Try squeezing the Handles together, then releasing the Latch.
6. Heat bread slices in a microwave for 10 seconds or roll them flat with a rolling pin to
keep them from cracking when rolling them up.
7. Try to keep fillings on the inside of the crust when making pockets; a filling will burn if
it gets on the outside. Cooked pockets are very hot. Use tongs or a wooden spoon to
release and remove them from the unit.
8. Phyllo dough, cookie dough, pie or pizza dough (ready-made or homemade) may not
work well in this unit. Most muffin mixes, however, work very well.
Care and Cleaning
1. Be sure the unit is unplugged and COMPLETELY COOL before cleaning.
2. Clean the exterior and cooking surfaces by wiping them with a slightly soapy sponge
or cloth. Rinse with a damp sponge and dry thoroughly. DO NOT IMMERSE THE UNIT
nor run water directly onto the cooking surfaces.
3. Never spray or apply cleaners directly onto the unit. Do not use steel wool pads or
other abrasive cleaners anywhere on the unit as they may damage or scratch surfaces.
4. To remove cooked-on food, use a plastic bristle brush, polyester, or nylon mesh pad.
Be sure to clean the inside of the Handle and Handle Latch after each use. If the
Handle Latch pops off, lift it all the way up and carefully snap the notches on the
Latch back onto the spindles of the Handle.
5. Over time, the non-stick coating, the Handle and the Latch will discolor. This is normal.
