OPERATING YOUR BREVILLE PRODUCT

BEFORE FIRST USE

Remove any promotional materials and
packaging materials before use. Check that
the cooking plates are clean and free of dust.
If necessary, wipe over with a damp cloth.

When using the panini press for the first
time you may notice a fine smoke haze.
This is caused by the heating of some of the
components. There is no need for concern.

TOASTED PANINIS

1. Insert the power plug into a 110/120V

power outlet and then turn the
power ON. The red POWER light
will illuminate.

2. Allow the panini press to pre-heat with

the top cooking plate in the closed
position until the green READY
light illuminates.

3. During this time, prepare the panini.

When the panini press has pre-heated,
place the panini onto the bottom
cooking plate. Always place panini
towards the rear of the bottom
cooking plate.

4. Close the top cooking plate. The top

cooking plate has a floating hinge that
is designed to evenly press down on
the panini.

5. Toasting should take approximately

5–8 minutes. Exact toasting time will be
a matter of taste. It will also depend on
the type of bread and type of filling used.

6. When the panini is cooked, use the

handle to open the panini press and
raise the top cooking plate. Remove
panini with the help of a plastic or
wooden spatula. Never use metal tongs
or a knife as these can cause damage to
the non-stick coating.

NOTE

Always allow the panini press
to pre-heat until the green READY
light illuminates.

NOTE

The safety locking storage clip should
not be used to clamp down the top
cooking plate when the panini is in
the panini press. The weight of the
top cooking plate will gradually
press down the panini during the
cooking process.

NOTE

When using the panini. Press for the
first time you may notice a fine smoke
haze. This is caused by the heating of
some of the components. There is no
need for concern.

CAUTION

HOT SURFACE - The temperature of
accessible surfaces may be high when
the appliance is operating.

Fully unwind the cord from the cord
storage facility before use.

OPERATING YOUR BREVILLE PRODUCT

Your panini press features an adjustable
height control feature which allows you
to fix the top plate to a range of positions
above the bottom plate. This allows your
panini press to be used as an open toaster
ideal for toasting open sandwich melts. It
can also be used for toasting sandwiches
where you don’t need to apply the weight of
the top plate.

OPEN SANDWICH MELTS

1. Allow the panini press to pre-heat until

the green READY light illuminates.

2. Place sandwich to be melted on

bottom plate.

3. Move the adjustable height control clip

on the right hand side of the sandwich
press to the desired height.

4. Slowly lower the top plate until it rests

on the adjustable height control clip.

5. The top plate will radiate the desired

heat to melt ingredients such as cheese.

6. Toasting melts should take

approximately 3–4 minutes. However
exact toasting time will be a matter of
taste. It will also depend on the height of
the top plate.

Adjustable Height Control

Toasts or melts any bread
thickness in minutes.

NOTE

The adjustable height control can be
moved to accommodate thick or thin
melts by sliding the clip forwards or
backwards along the arm.

HINTS FOR BEST RESULTS

BREAD

Most types of bread can be used; white,
wholemeal, kibbled wheat, wholegrain, raisin
loaf and so on. The panini press is ideal for
toasting foccacia, Turkish bread, baguettes
as well as bread rolls. Raisin bread, brioche
or other sweet breads which contain a high
sugar content will tend to brown quicker.

FILLINGS

Try to use canned or pre-cooked fruit as
fresh fruit may give off excessive juices
when heated. Be careful when biting into
sandwiches containing fillings such as
cheese and tomato or jam as they retain heat
and can burn if eaten too quickly.

VERSATILITY

The flat bottom plate design makes the
panini press ideal for toasting plain bread
and Turkish bread without any fillings or
spreads. The flat bottom plate is also perfect
for cooking breakfast items such as eggs
and pancakes.

FAT FREE SNACKS

Due to the non-stick flat plate design, it is
not necessary to use any butter or margarine
on the outside of your toasted snacks.

CARE, CLEANING & STORAGE

Before cleaning, remove the plug from the
power outlet. Allow your panini press to cool
before cleaning.

The appliance is easier to clean when
slightly warm.

Always clean your panini press after each
use to prevent a build up of baked-on foods.

Wipe cooking plates with a soft cloth. If
cooked on food is not removed by this
method reheat the unit for 1–2 minutes, then
brush with a little oil or melted butter. Allow
to stand for five minutes then wipe with a
damp cloth.

NOTE

The cooking plates are coated with a
non-stick surface, do not use abrasives.

NOTE

Do not use spray-on non-stick coatings
as this will affect the performance of the
non-stick surface on the cooking plates.

4. Wrap the power cord in the cord storage

area below the appliance.

5. Store on a flat, dry, level surface.

STORAGE

To store your panini press:

1. Unplug from the power outlet.

2. Allow the panini press to fully cool.

3. Slide the adjustable height control

towards the front handle to the LOCK
position so that the top and bottom
cooking plates are locked together.

NOTE

The storage clip should not be used
to clamp down the top plate when
sandwiches are in the panini press.

WARNING

Do not immerse any part of the panini
press in water or any other liquid.
