HELPFUL TIPS

NEVER leave the unit unattended while operating.
1. Tortillas are recommended for use in your ELECTRIC QUESADILLA
MAKER. Make sure they are fresh tortillas, not old nor stale.
2. Make sure fillings are evenly distributed on the bottom tortilla to
about ½ inch from the edge, so that the edges of the tortilla can
seal together and ingredients stay inside of tortillas.
3. Use soft ingredients: shredded cheeses, prepared salsa, and thinly cut or
shredded cooked meat, chicken and vegetables. Never use anything with bones
or pits included, nor anything uncooked such as raw meats, chicken, etc.
4. Avoid processed cheeses as they liquefy quickly and will drain out of the quesadilla.
5. Do not use more than ¼ cup of shredded cheese or ½ cup of salsa,
as they will leak out while cooking your quesadilla.
6. The average time for cooking a quesadilla, if not overfilled, is 3-7 minutes.
7. Crisping of the tortilla occurs while cooking. Therefore, less time cooked = less crisping.
8. Longer cooking will create a crispier quesadilla. DO NOT overcook quesadilla.
9. NEVER force the Lid to lock, this could result in damage to the hinge of the Lid.
10. Always have the Drip Tray in place when cooking a quesadilla. Check the
Drip Tray frequently during cooking sessions to prevent overflow.
11. Should melting occur that causes leakage of the tortillas, gently wipe up melted
cheese, etc. from the Non-stick Cooking Surface before cooking the next quesadilla.
This will prevent burning or scorching of previously melted cheeses, etc.
12. You can reheat previously cooked quesadillas by placing the quesadilla
on the preheated unit, lining up the grill marks on the quesadilla with the
Plate Pockets, lowering the Lid, and reheating for 1-3 minutes.
13. Always allow the appliance to cool before removing the Drip
Tray and wiping out the interior for cleaning.
14. Your quesadilla has been over-filled if it looks like this:
