SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (cont'd)
Warning: This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To
reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only
one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not
fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.
SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS
A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting from
entanglement or tripping over a longer cord. Longer detachable power-supply cords
or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use. If
a longer detachable power-supply extension cord is used:
1. The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least
as great as the electrical rating of the appliance, and:
2. The cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter top or
tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
LINE CORD SAFETY TIPS
1. Never pull or yank on cord or the appliance.
2. To insert plug, grasp it firmly and guide it into outlet.
3. To disconnect appliance, grasp plug and remove it from outlet.
4. Before each use, inspect the line cord for cuts and/or abrasion marks. If any
are found, this indicates that the appliance should be serviced and the line cord
replaced. Please return it to an authorized service representative.
5. Never wrap the cord tightly around the appliance, as this could place undue
stress on the cord where it enters the appliance and cause it to fray and break.
DO NOT OPERATE APPLIANCE IF THE LINE CORD SHOWS ANY DAMAGE OR
IF APPLIANCE WORKS INTERMITTENTLY OR STOPS WORKING ENTIRELY.
CAUTION: To ensure continued protection against risk of electric shock, connect to
properly grounded outlets only.
IMPORTANT: During the first few minutes of initial use, you may notice smoke and/
or a slight odor. This is normal and should quickly disappear. It will not recur after
appliance has been used a few more times.

heating plates with a damp cloth and towel dry. Brush or wipe the heating plates
with a small amount of vegetable oil or non-stick cooking spray.
HOW TO USE

2. Lightly glaze both heating plates with a small amount of vegetable oil or non-stick
cooking spray and close the casing for the sandwich maker to heat up.
3. After 4-6 minutes, the power/temperature light will turn off, indicating that the
sandwich maker is ready to use.
4. Prepare sandwiches by buttering bread on outer surfaces and placing desired
ingredients within. Lift cover latch and open the sandwich maker; place sandwich
on heating plates. CAUTION: Cooking surface is hot; handle with care.
5. Close the casing to ensure that the sandwich is placed evenly; lock the handle.
Normal cooking time will be 3-6 minutes for each sandwich. The power/

utensil. BE CAREFUL with sandwiches, the fillings will be quite hot. Allow to cool
for a few moments before enjoying.

Cleaning and Maintenance
This appliance requires little maintenance. It contains no user serviceable
parts. Do not try to repair it yourself. Refer it to qualified personnel if
servicing is needed.
TO CLEAN
Always unplug the sandwich maker from the power source and wait until it
cools down before cleaning. Wipe with a dry paper towel to absorb excess
oils. Brush crumbs from the grooves, and wipe with a damp cloth and mild
soap. Never immerse in water. Avoid using metal or sharp utensils, as they
will scratch the non-stick surface. Do not use cleaners or oven cleaners on
the heating plates. To clean handles and other parts, use a damp cloth with
mild soap and towel dry.
