SHORT CORD
INSTRUCTIONS
Your Breville appliance
is fitted with a short
power supply cord to
reduce personal injury or
property damage resulting
from pulling, tripping or
becoming entangled with a
longer cord.
If an extension cord is
used,
(1) the marked electrical
rating of the cord set or
extension cord should
be at least as great as the
electrical rating of the
appliance, (2) the cord
should be arranged so
that it will not drape over
the countertop or table-
top where it can be pulled
on by children or tripped
over unintentionally and
(3) the extension cord
must include a 3-prong
grounding plug.
BREVILLE ASSIST®PLUG
Your Breville appliance
comes with a unique
Assist®Plug, conveniently
designed with a finger hole
to ease removal from the
power outlet.

Functions
BEFORE FIRST USE
Remove any promotional materials and
packaging materials before use. Check that the
cooking plates are clean and free of dust.
If necessary, wipe over with a damp cloth.
When using the sandwich press for the
first time you may notice a fine smoke haze.
This is caused by the heating of some of the
components. There is no need for concern.
NOTE
• Always allow the sandwich press to pre-heat
until the green ‘READY’ light illuminates.
• The LOCK position is for the storage only.
It should not be used to clamp down the top
cooking plate when sandwiches are in the
sandwich press.
CRUSH CONTROL
TOASTED SANDWICH
This setting will reduce the weight of the top
cooking plate, giving fluffy cooking results
similar to cooking in a frying pan.
1. Insert the power plug into a 120V power
outlet. Switch the On/Off switch to the ON
position. The orange ‘POWER’ light will
illuminate.
2. Allow the sandwich press to preheat with
the top cooking plate in the closed position
until the green ‘READY’ light illuminates.
3. Place sandwich on the bottom cooking
plate. Always place sandwiches in the
center of the bottom cooking plate.
4. Move the Adjustable Height Control clip on
the right hand side of the sandwich press to
the CRUSH CONTROL position.
5. Close the top cooking plate. The top
cooking plate has a crush control hinge
that is designed to evenly and lightly press
down the sandwich.
6. Toasting should take approximately
3–5 minutes. Exact toasting time will be a
matter of taste. It will also depend on the
type of bread and type of filling used.
7. When the sandwich is cooked, use the
handle to open the sandwich press and
raise the top cooking plate. Remove
sandwich with a plastic or wooden spatula.
Never use metal tongs or a knife as these
can cause damage to the non-stick coating.
CAUTION
HOT SURFACE - The temperature of
accessible surfaces may be high when the
appliance is operating.
Fully unwind the cord from the cord storage
area before use.

OPEN SANDWICH MELTS
1. Insert the power plug into a 120V power
outlet. Switch the On/Off switch to the ON
position. The orange ‘POWER’ light will
illuminate.
2. Allow the sandwich press to preheat with
the top cooking plate in the closed position
until the green ‘READY’ light illuminates.
3. Place sandwich to be melted on the bottom
plate. Always place sandwiches in the
center of the bottom cooking plate.
4. Open the lid and move the Adjustable
Height Control clip on the right hand side
of the sandwich press to OPEN MELT
position.
5. Slowly lower the top plate until it sits in the
OPEN MELT position.
6. The top plate will radiate the desired heat to
melt ingredients such as cheese.
7. Toasting melts should take approximately
5–7 minutes. However, exact toasting time
will be a matter of taste. It will also depend
on how far the food is away from the
top plate.

Care & Cleaning
Before cleaning, switch the On/Off switch
to the Off position and unplug the sandwich
press. Allow your sandwich press to cool before
cleaning.
Always clean your sandwich press after each
use to prevent a buildup of baked-on foods.
Wipe cooking plates with a soft cloth. If cooked
on food is not removed by this method reheat
the unit for 1–2 minutes, then brush with a little
oil or melted butter.
NOTE
• The cooking plates are coated with a
non-stick surface; do not use abrasives.
• Do not use spray-on non-stick coatings as
this will affect the performance of the
non-stick surface on the cooking plates.
STORAGE
1. Switch the On/Off switch to the Off
position and unplug the sandwich press.
2. Allow the sandwich press to fully cool.
3. Move the Adjustable Height Control clip on
the right hand side of the sandwich press to
LOCK position so that the top and bottom
cooking plates are locked together.
4. Wrap the power cord in the cord storage
area below the appliance.
5. The sandwich press is designed to be stored
at upright position for compact storage.
Store on a flat, dry, level surface.
