HOW TO USE

This appliance is for HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY. It may be plugged into a standard electrical outlet.

IMPORTANT: Before using, operate the appliance without bread in order to burn off residues on the heating elements.

HOW TO USE

1.Wipe heating plates with a damp cloth.

2.When using for the first time, brush heating plates with oil, butter or margarine.

3.Close lid and plug appliance into a standard electrical outlet. Both the red power light and amber temperature light will come on, indicating the unit has begun heating.

4.Allow to preheat for approximately 5 minutes. The amber temperature light will go off when unit has reached heating temperature.

5.Open sandwich maker; place a slice of bread on the bottom plate, buttered side down. (For golden-toasted sandwiches, butter the outside of the bread.)

6.Add filling.

7.Add a second slice of bread, buttered side up. Carefully close the sandwich maker. Do not force shut. Use caution to prevent hands from coming in contact with steam being released from heating plates.

8.Secure with the latch.

9.Toasting time should take approximately 3-5 minutes. Exact time will be a matter of taste and will depend on type of bread and filling used. The amber temperature light turns on and off as the unit cycles to maintain ideal heating temperature; this prevents overheating. Avoid opening the sandwich maker before toasting is complete, as this may cause the sandwich

to toast poorly.

10.When toasted to taste, remove the sandwich using a plastic or wooden spatula. Do not use metal tongs or knives, as these may damage the non-stick coating.

11.Keep the lids closed to preserve the heat until ready for the next sandwich.

12.After use, immediately unplug from the electrical outlet.

13.If sandwiches are not to be consumed immediately, place them on a paper napkin to absorb condensation. To keep hot, place on a rack in an ovenproof dish and warm in the oven at about 200° - 250°F. Sandwiches will keep for about 20 minutes and then begin to dry out.

RECIPES

CURRIED CHICKEN: Combine 1/4 cup finely chopped, cooked chicken, 1/4 tsp. Curry powder, 1 Tbsp. mayonnaise and 1/4 Tbsp. chopped parsley.

FRUIT SURPRISE: Combine 1/4 cup leftover canned fruit, 1/4 - 1/2 tsp. cinnamon or mixed spice, 1-2 tsp. sugar, 1 Tbsp. sour cream.

VEGETABLE MEDLEY: Combine 1/4 cup leftover cooked vegetables, 2 Tbsp. Grated American cheese, salt and freshly ground pepper, 1/4 tsp. curry powder.

CARE AND CLEANING

This appliance requires little maintenance. It contains no user serviceable parts. Do not try to repair it yourself. Refer it to qualified personnel if servicing is needed.

NEVER IMMERSE APPLIANCE IN WATER. UNPLUG AND ALLOW TO COOL BEFORE CLEANING.

TO CLEAN: Do not use steel wool, scouring pads or abrasive cleaners, as this will damage the finish.

Inside cleaning: Wipe heating plates with absorbent paper toweling or a soft cloth. To remove filling that may adhere to the non-stick plates, simply pour a little cooking oil onto the baked-on food; allow to stand for 5 to 10 minutes. This should make it easy to remove with absorbent paper toweling or a soft cloth. If not, wipe the heating plates with a slightly dampened cloth and a little non-abrasive detergent.

Outside cleaning: Wipe dry with a soft, dry cloth. The sandwich maker can be placed in a vertical position (handles pointed up) for neat and compact storage.

TO STORE: Unplug unit and let it cool. Store in its box or in a clean, dry place. Never store it while it is hot or still plugged in. Never wrap cord tightly around the appliance. Do not put any stress on cord where it enters unit, as this could cause cord to fray and break.
