Ceramic Stone Coated

2 Slice Sandwich Maker

Page 2

1912 Midland Metal Spinners was founded by

George Cadman, who was then 65 years old, as

a metal holloware manufacturing company, in St.

Mark’s Street, Wolverhampton. They later moved

into the Tower and Fort Works in Pelham Street,

which ultimately gave rise to the famous Tower

brand name.

1937 Tower exhibited some of their latest holloware

designs at the British Industries Fair. As you can

see from the original poster, their stand No. A410

must have been a great sight as it promoted their

“Beautiful, inexpensive, untarnishable Plate, at

prices all can afford to pay”.

Healthy Toasted Sandwiches

The Tower 2 Slice Sandwich Maker means you

can enjoy delicious toasted sandwiches quickly

and at any time of the day or night. The ceramic

non-stick plates close to seal your sandwich and

its contents. There is no need for extra oil which

means healthier eating for you and your family.

1961 Tower became one of the largest

manufacturers of aluminium holloware, electric

kettles, tea pots and other household articles with

over 1,000 employees.

1974 Russell Hobbs took ownership of the

expanding Tower brand.

3USINGYOURAPPLIANCE

Beforerstuse:

• Carefully unpack the appliance. Remove all packaging materials.

• Place the appliance on a at, level surface. Open the sandwich maker lid.

• Wipe the cooking plates with a damp cloth so that they are clean.

• Note: Use a small amount of cooking oil to season the cooking plates, and wipe off any excess with a dry cloth. This only needs to be done once.

• Wipe the outside of the housing with a soft damp cloth. NEVER immerse the power cord and plug in water or any other liquid.

• Close the appliance.

• Plug into the wall outlet and pre-heat for 10 minutes.

• Note: During this initial phase some smoke may be emitted from the sandwich maker. This is normal.

Usingyourappliance:

1. Connect to your electrical supply and the red indicator lamp will switch on to show that the appliance is pre-heating.

2. Close the lid while the pre-heating occurs. During this time prepare your sandwich ingredients.

3. The appliance is ready for use once the green indicator illuminates. This will take approximately 5 minutes.

Preparingsandwiches:

1. Butter the bread on the outer surfaces and place desired llings within.

2. Lift safety catch and open the sandwich maker. Place sandwiches on the heating plates.

3. Close the casing to ensure that the sandwich is placed evenly.

4. Lock the safety catch.

5. Normal cooking times will be 3-6 minutes for each sandwich. The red light will turn on and off, as the thermostat keeps the sandwich maker at the proper baking temperature.

CAUTION: The appliance is not to be operated in the open position.

CAUTION: The cooking surface is hot; handle with care.

Servingyoursandwiches:

1. Remove the sandwiches from the heating plates with a plastic or wooden spatula.

2. Be careful with your sandwiches, the llings will be quite hot.

3. Allow to cool for a few minutes before enjoying.

Tips:

• Always preheat your sandwich maker fully.

• Ensure the lid of the sandwich maker is down whilst preheating.

• Butter, margarine and olive oil can all be used to coat the outside of your bread.

• Light/Low fat versions of margarines are not recommended as they do not withstand heat.

• Fillings: Try to use canned or pre-cooked fruit as fresh fruit may give off excessive juices when heated. Be careful when biting into toasted sandwiches containing llings such as cheese and tomato or jam as they retain heat and can burn if eaten too quickly.

• Processed cheeses tend to ‘run’ under higher temperatures.

• Pat moist ingredients (such as sliced tomatoes and fruits) dry before adding to your sandwich.

• Allow hot sandwiches to rest for 2 -3 minutes after removing them from the sandwich maker. This helps the llings cool slightly and means they will run less.

Fillings:

Savoury: Ham, Cheese And Tomato Tuna Melt - Tuna, Mayonnaise And Cheese Roast Pork And Apple Sauce Turkey, Stufng and Cranberry Cheese, Beans and Sausage BLT - Bacon, Lettuce And Tomato Brie, Cranberry Sauce and Rocket

Sweet: Chocolate Spread and Banana Toffee and Apple Cherry Pie Filling Apple and Blackcurrant Apple and Sultanas

4TROUBLESHOOTING&FAQ’S

Questions

Do the indicator lights show when my sandwich is done?

How long will it take to make a toasted sandwich?

Why are my llings spilling over during cooking?

Answers

No. The indicator lights only indicate power, and that the sandwich maker has reached the correct temperature. Ensure you do not leave the sand

wich maker during use.

We recommend toasting your sandwiches for around ve minutes. Generally the sandwiches will be ready approximately 3 – 6 minutes after adding them to the sandwich maker, depending on your preference.

You may have added too many llings to your sandwiches. Ensure that no llings are ‘overowing’ when you add the sandwich to the Sandwich Maker. Fillings such as cheese and jam reach very high temperatures when heated and can spill over.
