Safety instructions
How to avoid the risks of an
electrical shock
• The Panini Maker may only be used in dry rooms
indoors. Protect the appliance from spray water –
even when it is switched off.
• Use the appliance only if the local mains voltage
complies with the rated voltage of the appliance.
• Do not connect the appliance to a multiple connection power socket on which other electrical
devices are operating at the same time; this could
lead to an overload of the power circuit.
• Switch the appliance off after every use.
Additionally, disconnect the power plug.
• When cleaning, ensure that water cannot permeate
into the appliance. NEVER clean the appliance
under running water.
- 2 -
NEVER submerse the appliance in water or
other liquids.
• Protect the power cable from damage. Be careful
not to pinch/squeeze it, and keep it away from
hot objects. Do not allow the power cable to
hang freely from a table or workcounter.
• NEVER open the housing of the appliance.
• Arrange for defective power plugs and/or cables
to be replaced at once by qualified technicians
or our Customer Service Department.
• Repairs may only be carried out by experienced
specialists or workshops authorised to do so by
the manufacturer.
• This appliance is not intended for use by individuals (including children) with restricted physical,
physiological or intellectual abilities or deficiences
in experience and/or knowledge unless they are
supervised by a person responsible for their safety
or receive from this person instruction in how the
appliance is to be used.
• Children should be supervised to ensure that
they do not play with the appliance.
• Do not operate this appliance by means of an
external time switch or a separate remote control
system.
• After switching it off, allow the appliance to cool
completely before cleaning and storing it.
How to avoid the risk of fire
and injury
• Place your Panini Maker on a flat, non-slip and
heat-resistant surface and not on or close to other
appliances that could emit a significant level of
heat (e.g. toasters, kitchen ovens).
• Do not operate the appliance close to easily
flammable objects, such as curtains or next to
rolls of paper towels.
Even when used properly, some parts of the
appliance become very hot (such as the top
and bottom housing plates). After switching the
appliance off, take care not to touch these surfaces until they have cooled down completely.
• To avoid a dangerous overheating, ALWAYS
unwind the full length of the power cable.
• During use, the Panini Maker can be opened and
closed without risk by using the heat-insulated grip.
You can thus prevent the appliance
from being damaged
• To avoid damaging the non-stick coating of the
Sandwich Maker, remove your cooked foods
only with a plastic or wooden spatula or some
other suitable, non-metallic implement.
• For the same reason, do not use abrasive cleaners
and sharp objects to clean the appliance.

Commissioning
Operation
1. Take the appliance out of the packaging. Remove
all additional transport packing, e.g. plastic wrap
or cable holders.
2. Before the first usage, check that all items have
been delivered and there are no visible damages.
3. Read these operating instructions carefully.
4. Set up the appliance according to the safety
instructions.
5. Open the safety closure 4 .
6. Clean the appliance with a damp cloth as described in "Cleaning and Care".
7. Close the appliance.
8. Insert the plug into a power socket and allow the
appliance to heat up at its maximum temperature
setting for approx. 5 minutes.
Note:
Due to manufacturing residues, this initial heating up
could result in a light production of odour and smoke.
This is completely normal and is not dangerous.
Provide for sufficient ventilation, for example, open
a window.
9. After being heated up, remove the plug from
the wall socket and allow the appliance to
cool down.
10. Clean the appliance once more with a damp
cloth.
1. Close the appliance lid at the handle 6.
2. Push the grease catchment tray 7 into the app-
liance.
3. Insert the power plug into a wall power socket.
The red control lamp “Power” 2 glows.
4. Select the desired level with the heat level regulator 1. As soon as the selected heating level
has been reached, the green control lamp “Ready” 5 glows.
Note:
The green control lamp „Ready“ 5 also lights up
when the heat level regulator 1 is at position „0“.
As soon as you have set the heat level regulator 1
to the required position, the green control lamp
“Ready” 5 will go off until the desired temperature
has been attained.
Note:
The green control lamp “Ready” 5 can repeatedly
switch itself off. This means that the programmed
temperature has fallen, and the appliance is automatically heating itself up again!
5. Open the appliance lid and place the foodstuff
to be toasted/grilled on the lower hotplate 9.
6. Close the appliance lid using the handle 6.
Due to the positioning of the upper hotplate 9
being variable, even with thick items it is always
parallel to the lower hotplate 9. This ensures an
optimal cooking result.
7. After a short period check the browning of the
foodstuff. To do this, open the appliance lid
using the handle 6
Note:
Start with short cooking times and expand on them
until you have discovered the ideal duration.
- 4 -
8. When you are satisfied with the browning, open
the lid and remove the foodstuff.
Warning:
Do not use sharp or pointed objects to remove the
foodstuff. They could damage the surfaces of the
hotplates 9!
9. Turn the heat level regulator 1 to “0” and
remove the plug from the power socket.
Warning:
When the appliance is not in use, always remove
the plug from the power socket. It is not sufficient
to simply place the heat level regulator 1 in the
position “0”!
Tips and Tricks
• To make meat softer and to speed up grilling, it
can be marinaded beforehand. Suitable as the
basis for this are, for example, sour cream, red
wine, vinegar, buttermilk, or the fresh juice from
papayas or pineapples. Subject to taste, add
herbs and spices. Do not add salt, salt extracts
water from the meat and makes it hard. Place
the meat in the marinade so that it is completely
covered and then close the receptacle. It is best
to let it stand overnight.
• The hotplates 9 have a non-stick coating, extra
fat is therefore not needed. If you wish to use fat
anyway, please ensure that the fat/oil is suitable
for cooking, e.g. rapeseed oil.
• If you are not sure if the foodstuff is cooked in
the middle, use a standard commercial meat
thermometer.
Cleaning and Care
Important!
Before cleaning, remove the plug from the wall socket
and wait until the appliance has cooled down completely. Risk of injury!
Important!
Never clean the appliance under running water,
and never submerge it in water. The appliance
could be irreparably damaged!
• Draw the cleaning scraper 0, after the hotplates 9 have cooled, over the hotplates 9 so that
the fat and other residues are gathered together
so that you can better remove it.
• Wipe the hotplates 9 with a moist cloth. For
stubborn soiling use a mild detergent on the
cloth. To avoid destroying the non-stick coating,
do not use aggressive detergents, rough sponges or sharp objects.
• It is best to lay a wet dish cloth on encrusted residues in order to soften them.
A damp cloth is also sufficient for cleaning the outer
surfaces of the appliance.
Be sure to allow all parts to dry completely before
using the Panini Maker again.
Wipe the cleaning scraper 0 with a moist cloth.
For stubborn soiling, apply a mild detergent to the
cloth.
Storage
Store the cleaned appliance at a dry location.
Close the safety closure 4 .
Wrap the power cable 3 around the cable retainers
on the underside of the appliance.
