Panini Press Tips
ALWAYS PREHEAT THE PANINI PRESS 6 MINUTES BEFORE
USING.
• Read the Use and Care Guide before using the panini press.
• Use vegetable cooking spray for convenient, stick-free
cooking. Or if you prefer, brush cooking surfaces with
vegetable oil before preheating.
• Use plastic utensils on the nonstick cooking surfaces. Do
not use metal utensils since they will damage the nonstick
surface.
• Thicker sandwiches may shift when being pressed. Use a
plastic spatula to reposition. Place sandwich in center of
press.
• When a recipe calls for fruit, lock the cover in place above
the fruit so that it heats but does not contact the fruit.
• There is no need to press down on the handle. The weight
of the cover will grill the top of the sandwich.
• Cleanup is easy! Let panini press cool down. Wipe cooking
surfaces with damp paper towel or dish cloth.
• Do not latch the storage latch with anything between the
grids—this could break the storage latch. (Storage latch is
an optional feature on select models.)
