Using your sandwich
toaster

Open the sandwich toaster by undoing
the locking clip on the handle and raising the
upper half of the toaster with the handle.

Before using your sandwich toaster for the
first time, wash and dry the cooking plates.
The appliance must be fully closed and
fastened for pre-heating and cooking.

Prepare your sandwich in advance. For
best results lightly butter the bread on the
OUTSIDE, do not cut the bread in half before
cooking your sandwich.

Do not use low-fat spread products for
greasing sandwich plates or spreading on
bread, as they are not suitable for these
purposes. For best results use vegetable oil
or butter.

1 Plug the sandwich toaster into the mains

socket and switch on. The red light › will

glow indicating it is switched on.
2 Keep the sandwich toaster closed while

preheating. When the orange light fi

comes on this shows the sandwich toaster

is ready for use. Please note that this light

will cycle on/off during use.
3 Now open the toaster and place the

sandwiches on the hot plates.

REMEMBER THE TOASTER PLATES ARE

VERY HOT.

When using for the first time you may

notice a fine smoke haze being emitted

from the unit, this is due to the ‘bake in’ of

some of the components and is not

harmful.
