CoMpACtA SANDWICH MAKER
Before using your Oster
®
Compact Sandwich Maker for the first time, clean and grease
the cooking surfaces:
• With the appliance unplugged, clean the cooking surfaces with a cloth or sponge
dampened with hot, soapy water. DO NOT IMMERSE UNIT IN WATER. Rinse with a
dampened cloth or sponge and wipe dry.
• To grease the cooking surfaces plug the appliance into an electrical outlet. The red
“Power On” Indicator Light will illuminate. Allow the Sandwich Maker to pre-heat until
the green “Ready” Indicator Light turns on. Wipe a small amount of butter or margarine
onto the cooking surfaces, rub lightly and wipe away any excess.
• Note: When using your Sandwich Maker for the first time you may notice a fine smoke
haze being emitted from the unit. This is normal. It is due to the initial heating of
internal components.

• Plug the power cord into an electrical outlet, the red “Power On” Indicator Light will
illuminate and remain lit while the appliance is plugged in.
• Pre-heat your Sandwich Maker until the green “Ready” Indicator Light turns on.
• Once you have prepared your snack, open the Sandwich Maker and place the
sandwiches on the cooking surface. DO NOT OVERFILL.
• Lower the top cooking surface until the handles meet, then secure with the Locking
Latch. DO NOT FORCE THE LID TO CLOSE.
Note:
• Ensure that the cord is kept well away from the cooking surfaces when in use.
• The green “Ready” Indicator Light may turn on and off during cooking. This indicates
that the thermostat is maintaining the proper cooking temperature to prepare snacks
to perfection.
• When the sandwiches are cooked to taste, remove with a plastic spatula.
• The cooking surfaces are coated with a durable non-stick coating. Some sandwich
fillings such as cheese may melt and cause the sandwich to stick to the cooking sur
faces. To free the sandwich, use a plastic spatula or wooden spoon. Never use a sharp
or metal object, as this will damage the non-stick surface.
• AFTER YOU HAVE COMPLETED USING YOUR SANDWICH MAKER, UNPLUG
THE APPLIANCE FROM THE ELECTRICAL OUTLET.
