Characteristics of the appliance
With the sandwich maker you will be able to toast sandwiches
with filling quickly. The sandwich maker allows you to cook
one or two slices of bread for toasting at the same time.
The cooking plates are divided into four triangular zones
and covered with a specially designed layer to prevent the
sandwiches from sticking to the cooking plate. The sandwich
maker has two indicators:
red: the red light indicates that the appliance has been
–
connected to the mains supply,
green: you can use the appliance for toasting now.

Before using for the first time
Remove your sandwich maker from the packaging.
●
Make sure that the voltage shown on the rating plate of
●
the appliance corresponds to that in the mains supply.
Clean the inside of the sandwich maker with a slightly
●
damp cloth or paper towel.
Brush the cooking zones with a small amount of oil or
●
butter.
Pre-heat the sandwich maker for about 5 minutes with
●
the lid open to remove any remnants originating from the
manufacturing process.
When using the sandwich maker for the first
time, with the cooking zones getting hotter
you may notice a fine smoke haze. It is not
dangerous nor is it a sign that your appliance
is defective. The appliance should cease to
emit the haze after several cooking cycles.
Remove the plug from the mains socket, and allow the
●
sandwich maker to cool down fully.
When the appliance has cooled down, wipe the remnants
●
of oil away from the cooking plates with paper towel.
How to use and how your sandwich
maker works
1
Place your sandwich maker on a dry, even surface near
the mains socket.
2
Close and latch the toaster.
3
Plug the appliance into the mains socket. The red light
will come On.
4
Wait for about 3-4 minutes for the green indicator to
illuminate. The green light shows that the cooking plates
have reached the correct cooking temperature.
A
B
The green indicator will cycle On and Off. This
is a sign showing that the correct cooking
temperature is maintained.
To get golden brown sandwiches, spread the
outside of bread with butter.
5
Unlatch and open the toaster.
6
Place sandwiches on the lower cooking plate.
7
Close the lid carefully. If necessary, use a wooden
spatula to hold the sandwiches in place. If you cannot close
the lid properly, it means that the sandwiches are overfilled,
and you need to remove some of the filling.
Do not force the lid down. This can damage
your sandwich maker.
Toasting time depends on your taste and the
type of bread. Sandwiches are usually toasted
for ca. 3-8 minutes. You can unlatch and open
the lid to decide if you still want to toast your
sandwiches.
Be careful. The appliance may generate hot
steam when operating. The hot steam may also
escape when you open the lid. Risk of burns!
8
Unlatch and open the lid.
Remove the toasted sandwiches.
●
Use a wooden spatula to remove sandwiches
and remnants from the sandwich maker.
Sharp and/or metallic objects may damage the
cooking plates.
The cooking plates are hot. Be very careful to
avoid burns.
9
When you have finished the toasting, switch the
appliance off, and allow it to cool down fully. Remove the
plug from the mains socket to switch the appliance off.
Shortly after the toasting, the filling may still be
hot. When eating, take special care to avoid the
risk of burns.
Cleaning and maintenance of sandwich maker
Your sandwich maker does not require any specific
●
maintenance.
Keep and store the sandwich maker clean, as it has

●
cleaning, and allow it to cool down fully.
Wipe your sandwich maker with a soft, slightly damp
●
cloth, and then dry it with a soft, clean cloth.
Do not use cleaners that may scratch or damage external
●
surfaces and a protective layer of the heating plates.
