ON, to indicate the unit is “ready to toast” or “ready to use” when temperature is reached.
NOTE: During toasting this “ready” GREEN indicator light will continually cycle ON & OFF, indicating that the
built in thermostat is maintaining correct toasting temperatures.

HINTS FOR USE
1. Always pre-heat your sandwich toaster before use, so that toasting can commence once the “ready”
GREEN LED goes ON.
2. Prepare sandwiches for toasting in one of two ways. One is to prepare the sandwich complete with

cheese may melt and cause the sandwich to stick to the sandwich toaster. To free the sandwiches use
a plastic or wooden spatula. Never use a sharp metal object such as a knife as this will damage the non-
stick surface.
