READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: A risk of fire and electrical shock exists in all electrical appliances and may cause personal injury or death. Please follow all safety instructions.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:

◆ Read all instructions before using the appliance.

◆ Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles with care. Hot pads or

oven mitts are recommended.

◆ To protect against electrical shock, do not immerse cord, plug or sandwich maker in water or other liquid. See instructions for cleaning.

◆ Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used near children.

◆ This appliance is not for use by children.

◆ Do not use appliance unattended.

◆ Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to

cool before putting on or taking off parts, and before moving or cleaning the appliance.

◆ Do not operate any damaged appliance. Do not operate with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions, or has been dropped or damaged in any manner. Contact Consumer Service for return authorization, for examination, repair or adjustment.

◆ When using this appliance, provide 4 to 6 inches air space above, behind, and on both sides for air circulation. Do not use on surfaces where heat may cause a problem.

Snackster Snack n’ Sandwich Maker Use and Care Guide

◆ Do not place on or near hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.

◆ Use appliance only as indicated in these instructions.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION: A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risk of personal injury resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Extension cords are available from local hardware stores and may be used if care is exercised in their use. If an extension cord is required, special care and caution is necessary. Also the cord must be: (1) marked with an electrical rating of 125 V and at least 13 A, 1625 W, (2) if the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a grounding 3-wire cord, and (3) the cord must be arranged so that is will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over accidentally.

POLARIZED PLUG: This appliance has a polarized plug, (one blade is wider than the other). As a safety feature to reduce the risk of electrical shock, this plug is intended to fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.

GROUNDED-TYPE PLUG: Some models have a 3-prong grounded-type plug. This plug will only fit into an electrical outlet made for a 3-prong plug. This is a safety feature. If the plug should fail to fit the outlet, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.

ELECTRIC POWER: If the electric circuit is overloaded with other appliances, your Snackster may not function properly. It should be operated on a separate electrical circuit from other appliances.

This product is for household use only.

CAUTION: Never place any part of appliance in water or other liquids.

1. Before using, wipe cooking surfaces with a damp cloth and dry. Condition non-stick cooking surfaces by lightly coating with vegetable shortening. Close lid.

2. Plug into a 120 V ~ 60 Hz outlet. The red power-on light will come on. Always allow sandwich maker to heat until the green preheat light comes on, approximately 5 minutes. Initially, some smoking may occur. This is normal for newly manufactured appliances and will not occur after the first few uses.

CAUTION: Appliance surfaces are hot during use.

3. Follow directions in each section for individual recipe: flavored butters, roll-ups, sandwiches, or hot pockets.

4. Close lid and latch ONLY if recipe directions indicate to do so. Do not force shut. Do not latch if recipe contains uncooked eggs or will increase in volume when cooked; allow it to expand with lid unlatched.

5. Refer to recipe for cooking time and special instructions. The green light will continue to turn off and on during use.

6. Cooking time is 4-6 minutes for most recipes. Lift the lid to check for doneness. Leave in longer to toast darker or cook until done.

7. Remove snack with plastic, nylon, or wooden utensil to protect the non-stick surface. Never use a sharp, metal object. You may make 1-8 snacks at a time, depending on the size sandwich maker you have.

CAUTION: Allow sandwich, hot pockets and roll-ups to cool before eating as filling becomes very hot.

8. When finished, unplug and allow to cool before cleaning.

Hints

◆ Bread will toast better if the outside is buttered, but the butter may be omitted.

◆ Food needs to be cooked before placing between bread slices.

◆ Avoid using processed cheese as it tends to ‘run’ under high temperatures.

◆ Use a pizza cutter to cut pockets apart.

◆ Eight slices of bread will make 8 snacks. Recipes may be cut in half.

User Maintenance Instructions

This appliance requires little maintenance. It contains no user serviceable parts. Do not try to repair it yourself. Refer it to a qualified appliance repair techinician if servicing is needed.

Care and Cleaning

CAUTION: Unplug from electrical outlet before cleaning. Never immerse appliance in water or other liquids.

1. While cooking surfaces are still warm, brush with clean, soft pastry brush or cloth.

2. Do not use steel wool or coarse scouring pads. Remove stubborn stains with a plastic mesh puff or pad. For best results, use only products with directions stating safe for cleaning non-stick cooking surfaces.

3. The exterior finish should be cleaned with a non-abrasive cleaner and a soft, damp cloth; dry thoroughly.

4. Close latch and stand on end for storage.

Snackster Snack n’ Sandwich Maker Use and Care Guide

Sandwiches

Recipes for sandwich pockets are made with a filling between two slices of bread. Round top and large slices of bread will seal around the edges of the sandwich better, but any type and flavor of bread may be used. To make sandwiches, butter one side of two slices of bread. Place buttered sides together. Follow recipe directions to spread the filling over unbuttered side of bread OR to add two tablespoons of fillings in two opposite corners of the unbuttered side of bread. DO NOT OVERFILL. Place the top slice of bread with filling onto sandwich maker with buttered side down (position filling over pockets). Repeat for other sandwiches. Then carefully place second slice of bread on top with buttered side up. Close lid and latch. If too much filling is used, the excess will run out of the snack while cooking. If too little filling is used, the design will not develop on your snack.
