USING your SanDwich maker
WARNING: DURING COOKING, ONLY TOUCH THE COOL-TOUCH HANDLES.
NOTE: On first use, you may notice smoke. This is normal due to the initial heating of the internal components.
- Wipe the non-stick cooking plates with a damp cloth or sponge.
- When you first plug in the sandwich maker, the red light will illuminate to let you know the unit is on. Once the green light illuminates, the sandwich maker is ready for use. Note that during cooking, the green indicator light will cycle on and off to maintain the correct temperature.
- For a crispy, golden-brown sandwich spread a thin layer of butter or margarine on the outward-facing slices.
- Lay one buttered slice facing downwards on the lower cooking plate. Add your filling and cover with the second slice of bread with the buttered side facing the upper cooking plate. Note: Although there is room for two sandwiches, you can toast only one sandwich if needed.
- For optimal results, the filling should be placed well within the sandwich slices. Lower the upper cooking plate carefully onto the bread until the sandwich maker is tightly clamped.
- After 2-3 minutes lift the cool-touch handle to check whether the toasted sandwich is sufficiently brown. The cooking time required to obtain crisp, golden-brown sandwiches depends on the type of bread, fillings, and your taste.
- Once cooked, use a non-metallic utensil to remove the toasted sandwich. Do not use sharp or abrasive kitchen utensils to cut your sandwich while it is on the non-stick plates.
- After use, unplug the sandwich maker from the wall outlet, and allow it to cool completely before cleaning or storing.
