For optimal results
,
the filling should be placed well within the
sandwich slices
.
Lower the upper cooking plate carefully onto the bread until
the panini grill is tightly clamped
,
then lock securely with the
clip
.
After
2-3
minutes
,
lift the cool
-
touch handle to check whether
your sandwiches are sufficiently brown
.
The cooking time
required to obtain crisp
,
golden brown sandwiches depends
on the type of bread
,
fillings used
,
and your personal taste
.
Once cooked
,
use a non
-
metallic utensil to remove
.
Do not
use sharp or abrasive kitchen utensils to cut your sandwich
while it is on the non
-
stick plates
.
After use
,
unplug the panini grill from the outlet
,
and allow it to
cool completely before cleaning or storing
.
Note
:
On first use
,
you may notice smoke and a slight odor
.
This is normal due to the initial heating of the internal
components
.

Using Your panini grill
Before using for the first time
,
wipe the non
-
stick cooking plates
with a clean
,
damp cloth
.
Plug the panini grill into a
120
V
/60
Hz power outlet
.
The red light
will illuminate
.
Close the unit using the cool
-
touch handle to allow it to pre
-
heat
while you prepare your fillings
.
After approximately
3
minutes
,
the green light will illuminate to let
you know the plates are ready for use
.
During cooking
,
the green
light will cycle on and off as the thermostat maintains the correct
temperature which ranges from
140-200
°
F
.
Place two slices of bread next to each other on the non
-
stick
plates
.
For crispy
,
golden brown sandwiches
,
spread a thin layer
of butter or margarine on the outward
-
facing slices although this
is not a requirement
.
Add your filling onto each slice and then cover with a second
slice of bread with the buttered side facing the upper cooking
plate
.
Although there is room for two sandwiches
,
you can toast
only one if needed
.
