mful.
• When using for the first time, wipe the surface of the plates with a damp

this ready light will come on and out regularly. This simply means that the
thermostat is regulating the appliance‘s temperature.

burned.
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.

the appliance and remove sandwich using a plastic or wooden spatula. Never
use a metal knife as this may damage the non-stick coating.
