Important Safeguards
POWER CORD INSTRUCTIONS
1. A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the hazard resulting from
entanglement or tripping over a long cord.
2. Extension cords may be used if care is exercised. If it is necessary to use
an extension cord, it should be positioned so that it does not drape over the
counter or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over
unintentionally.
3. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be the same or higher than
the wattage of the appliance (the wattage is shown on the rating label
located on the underside or back of the appliance).
4. Avoid pulling or straining the power cord at the outlet or appliance connections.
POLARIZED PLUG
1. Your appliance is equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the
other).
2. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this plug is intended to t into a
polarized outlet only one way.
3. If the plug does not t fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it does not t,
please consult a qualied electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety
feature by modifying the plug in any way.
WARNING: Improper use of the power cord may result in electric shock.
Consult a qualied electrician if necessary.

Before First Use
CAUTION: The unit is on when it is plugged in. When the unit is plugged in, the
orange “Power-On” light will be illuminated.
WARNING: The sandwich maker cooking plates
get very hot. Avoid touching them and the outer
housing to avoid possible injury.
*Always use oven mitts when using your
appliance.
1. Place the unit on a clean, dry, heat-resistant level surface. Plug the unit into a 120 volt 60 Hz
AC only outlet. Close the lid and allow the unit to preheat.
2. We nd it best to plug the unit in rst and then prepare the sandwiches while waiting for the
appliance to heat up. Follow the directions of your chosen recipe.
3. Aer a few minutes, the green “Ready” light will turn on, indicating that the unit is now ready
to cook. Li the lid to its fully upright position.
Carefully unpack the sandwich maker and remove any packaging materials. Wipe the surface of
the cooking plates with a clean, damp cloth or sponge, then dry with a clean, dry cloth. This will
remove any dust which may have settled during packaging. Wipe the cooking plates with a small
amount of cooking oil. The outside of the sandwich maker may be wiped with a clean, damp cloth
or sponge. Do not immerse the sandwich maker in water or any other liquid. Do not use
harsh or abrasive cleaners.

NOTE: Sandwich maker has been designed for use with standard size breads.
NOTE: Cook only with the lid in the closed position.
4. Carefully place the sandwiches onto the cooking plates and lower the lid. Do not apply
excessive force to close the lid. If the lid will not fully close, rearrange the sandwiches until
the lid will close. Steam may come from the sides of the unit while closing the lid, so care
must be taken not to burn yourself. Lock the lid into place using the latch at the front of the
sandwich maker.
During the toasting process, the green indicator light may ash on and o. This is simply the
sandwich maker adjusting the temperature as the sandwiches are being cooked.
Most sandwiches should be ready in 2-4 minutes. Depending on personal preference and
taste, this time may vary slightly.
5. Unlock the lid and li it to its fully upright position. Remove the sandwiches from the cooking
plates with a plastic or wooden spatula.
Do not use metal utensils, as this may damage the nonstick surface of the cooking plates.
6. If additional sandwiches are desired, lower the lid to preserve the heat while you prepare the
additional sandwiches. Simply repeat the above steps to make as many tasty sandwiches as
desired.
7. When you are nished using the sandwich maker, be sure to unplug and allow to cool before
cleaning and storing.
8. Always follow cleaning instructions (pg. 7) before storing.
9. The sandwich maker can be latched closed and stored upright.
CAUTION: Do not overll your sandwiches. Excessive ingredients may not allow
you to close and lock your sandwich maker. Forcing the lock will possibly damage
the product.

• Wipe the cooking plates with a small amount of cooking oil.
• Always preheat the unit before cooking.
• Try using avoured butters to make interesting and exciting sandwiches.
• Try dierent avours of breads and llings to create your own specialties.
• Use pizza sauce, spaghetti sauce or tomato sauce interchangeably. About 1 tablespoon
(15 mL) per bread slice works well.
• Standard size breads are ideal and cook more evenly than thicker sliced bread.
• Use 1/4 to 1/3 cup (50 to 75 mL) cup chopped meat or vegetable mixture per sandwich.
• Bread slices should t within the square designs of the bottom cooking surface. If bread is
large, trim to t or cut in half, making a smaller sandwich. However, for best results, do not
remove crusts from bread.
• Use very thinly sliced or shaved meats.
• Let sandwiches cool slightly before eating. Cheese, especially, becomes very hot. So or
melted llings will rm slightly.
Helpful Hints
Be sure to unplug and allow to cool before cleaning. Do not immerse in water. Wipe the inside and
the edges of the cooking plates with a clean, damp cloth. For removing stubborn stains or food, use
a nylon brush or another utensil that is safe for nonstick surfaces. Do not use steel wool or scouring
pads. Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners. The exterior may be wiped with a clean, damp cloth.
