IMPORTANT
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.
Operation

2. Plug the unit into a power source. Ensure the electrical cable is not damaged and does not hang over the counter, and the “ON/OFF”
button is set to the “ON” position
3. Your toaster is ready to use
4. Visually check the toaster is clean, in good repair and safe
5. Lightly grease the plates and set the thermostat to the desired cooking temperature.
As a guide, 200°C for toasted sandwiches. Adjust the dial accordingly to get the desired results
6. Allow approximately 20 minutes warm up time
7. Place the food item on the bottom plate and lower the top plate onto the food
8. Once desired result is achieved remove the food item from the unit
9. During intermittent use, it is recommended that the plates be kept closed when not cooking. While closed, the temperature should
be turned down to 100°C - 150°C. This will minimise heat loss, save power and provide a faster heat up time when the unit is next
required
After Hours
