Helpful Hints
• Be sure to always wash the grill plates after each use to remove any
residue that may have accumulated.
• Do not use sharp objects or attempt to cut food on top of the grill
plates.
• Always preheat for 8 minutes until the green ready light illuminates
before use. Have all ingredients in place before cooking starts.
• For best results, spread mayonnaise on both outer sides of panini
sandwiches before cooking. This will give darker, crustier grill marks
on the bread.
• Do not use metal utensils, as this may damage the nonstick surface
of the grill plates.
• If additional sandwiches are desired, lower the lid to preserve the
heat while you prepare the additional sandwiches.
• Let sandwiches cool slightly before eating. Cheese, especially,
becomes very hot. Soft or melted fillings will firm slightly.
• For easy storage, use the cord wrap on the underside of the unit.
Your Panini Maker is designed to stand vertically, taking up the least
amount of storage space. See figure 4.
• For easy cleanup, you can lay your food on a piece of parchment
paper, leaving a two-inch border on each side. Place a second piece
of parchment paper over your food, fold three sides in, and press to
make a sealed seam. Fold in one more time and press. Load packet
onto the panini with open end positioned over the drip tray so fat
can freely flow into the tray.
