OPERATING YOUR BREVILLE TOAST & MELT
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.
TOASTED SANDWICHES
1. Insert the power plug into a 230V or
240V power outlet and then turn the
power ON. The red ‘POWER’ light
will illuminate.
2. Allow the sandwich press to pre-heat
with the top cooking plate in the closed
position until the green ‘READY’
light illuminates.
3. During this time, prepare the sandwich.
When the sandwich press has pre-
heated, place the sandwich onto the
bottom cooking plate. Always place
sandwiches towards the rear of the
bottom cooking plate.
4. Close the top cooking plate. The top
cooking plate has a floating hinge that
is designed to evenly press down on the
sandwich (see Fig 1).
Fig. 1
5. Toasting should take approximately 5-8
minutes. Exact toasting time will be a
matter of taste. It will also depend on the
type of bread and type of filling used.
6. When the sandwich is cooked, use the
handle to open the sandwich press and
raise the top cooking plate. Remove
sandwich with the help of a plastic or
wooden spatula. Never use metal tongs
or a knife as these can cause damage to
the non-stick coating.
NOTE
Always allow the sandwich press to
pre-heat until the green ‘READY’
light illuminates.
NOTE
The safety locking storage clip should
not be used to clamp down the top
cooking plate when the sandwiches
are in the sandwich press. The weight
of the top cooking plate will gradually
press down the sandwich during the
cooking process.
NOTE
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.
CAUTION
HOT SURFACE - The temperature of
accessible surfaces may be high when
the appliance is operating.
Fully unwind the cord from the cord
storage facility before use.

10
OPERATING YOUR BREVILLE TOAST & MELT
Your sandwich press features an Adjustable
Height Control feature which allows you
to fix the top plate to a range of positions
above the bottom plate. This allows your
sandwich press to be used as an open
toaster ideal for toasting open sandwich
melts. It can also be used for toasting
sandwiches where you don’t need to apply
the weight of the top plate.
OPEN SANDWICH MELTS
1. Allow the sandwich press to pre-heat
until the green ‘READY’ light illuminates.
2. Place sandwich to be melted on
bottom plate.
3. Move the Adjustable Height Control clip
on the right hand side of the sandwich
press to the desired height (see Fig 2).
4. Slowly lower the top plate until it rests
on the Adjustable Height Control clip.
5. The top plate will radiate the desired
heat to melt ingredients such as cheese.
6. Toasting melts should take
approximately 3-4 minutes. However
exact toasting time will be a matter of
taste. It will also depend on the height of
the top plate.

Adjustable Height Control
Toasts or melts any bread
thickness in minutes.

NOTE
The Adjustable Height Control can be
moved to accommodate thick or thin
melts by sliding the clip forwards or
backwards along the arm.

HINTS FOR
BEST RESULTS
from your Breville Toast & Melt

13
HINTS FOR BEST RESULTS
BREAD
Most types of bread can be used; white,
wholemeal, kibbled wheat, wholegrain,
raisin loaf and so on. The sandwich press
is ideal for toasting foccacia, Turkish bread,
baguettes as well as bread rolls. Raisin
bread, brioche or other sweet breads which
contain a high sugar content will tend to
brown quicker.
FILLINGS
Try to use canned or pre-cooked fruit as
fresh fruit may give off excessive juices
when heated. Be careful when biting into
sandwiches containing fillings such as
cheese and tomato or jam as they retain heat
and can burn if eaten too quickly.
TOASTING BREAD
The unique flat plate design makes the
sandwich press ideal for toasting plain
breads, and Turkish bread, without any
fillings or spreads. Try toasting Turkish
Bread with jams for a great alternative to
standard breads at breakfast.
FAT FREE SNACKS
Due to the non-stick flat plate design, it is
not necessary to use any butter or margarine
on the outside of your toasted snacks.

CARE, CLEANING
& STORAGE
for your Breville Toast & Melt

15
CARE, CLEANING & STORAGE
Before cleaning, switch the power off at the
power outlet and then remove the power
plug. Allow your sandwich press to cool
before cleaning. The appliance is easier to
clean when slightly warm.
Always clean your sandwich press after each
use to prevent a build up 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. Allow
to stand for five minutes then wipe with a
damp cloth.
NOTE
The cooking plates are coated with a
non-stick surface, do not use abrasives.
NOTE
Do not use spray-on non-stick coatings
as this will affect the performance of the
non-stick surface on the cooking plates.
STORAGE
To store your sandwich press:
1. Switch off at power outlet and unplug
power cord from the wall.
2. Allow the sandwich press to fully cool.
3. Slide the Adjustable Height Control
towards the front handle to the ‘LOCK’
position so that the top and bottom
cooking plates are locked together
(see Fig 4).
Fig. 4
4. Wrap the power cord in the cord storage
area below the appliance (see Fig 5).
5. Store on a flat, dry, level surface.
Fig.5
NOTE
The storage clip should not be used
to clamp down the top plate when
sandwiches are in the sandwich press.
WARNING
Do not immerse any part of the
sandwich press in water or any
other liquid.
