CAUTION!
Do not keep the plates closed for extended periods at high temperatures without any
food product being cooked, as this may cause the plates to buckle.
Operating Instructions
First Time Operation
Before cooking for the first time the plates need to be seasoned as follows:
Visually check the toaster is clean, in good repair and safe.
Wipe the top and bottom plates clean and apply a liberal coating of paraffin or vegetable oil.
Set the thermostat to 100
o
C. The pilot light will illuminate indicating that the grill is heating.
When the grill has reached the set temperature the pilot light will go out. Wipe the excess oil from the
plates. (Caution: take care when wiping excess oil off plates as plates and oil will be hot.)
Cooking
Visually check the toaster is clean, in good repair and safe.
Lightly grease the plates and set the thermostat to the desired cooking temperature. As a guide, a setting
of 215
o
C should suffice for toasted sandwiches but experience will dictate the most appropriate settings to
use.
Allow a short warm up time - around 20 minutes should suffice.
Place the food on the bottom plate and close the top plate onto the food.
During intermittent use, it is recommended that the plates be kept closed when not cooking. While closed, the
temperature should be turned down to around 150
o
C. This will minimise heat loss, save power and provide a
faster heat up time when the grill is next required.
Temperature Adjustment
The temperature of the plates can be adjusted by using the thermostat knob located on the front of the
unit.
After Hours
The unit MUST be switched OFF.
CAUTION!
The surfaces on this unit are hot!
