HINTS
• Always preheat the Sandwich Maker before using.
• Select bread that will fit the Cooking Plates.
• Use approximately 1/3 (85 ml) cup of filling for each sandwich.
• It is not necessary to butter bread, however, the Cooking Plates should
be seasoned lightly with oil/butter occasionally. See #5 in the ‘Before First
Use’ section.
• Do not use processed cheese as it melts too quickly.
• When using sweet filling a teaspoon of sugar on the buttered side of the
bread will add flavour and make the outside of the sandwiches crispier.
• Raisin bread or other sweet breads brown quickly so adjust cooking
time accordingly.
• Pastry may be used instead of bread.
CARE AND CLEANING
1. Unplug the Sandwich Maker and allow it to cool.
2. Wipe the Cooking Plates with paper towels or a soft cloth dampened in
warm soapy water. DO NOT IMMERSE THE UNIT AND DO NOT RUN
WATER DIRECTLY ONTO THE COOKING SURFACE. If some of the fill-
ing has adhered to the Cooking Plates, pour a small amount of cooking
oil onto the baked-on food and allow to stand for 5 to 10 minutes. Wipe
with paper towels.
3. Wipe the outside of the Sandwich Maker with a soft cloth dampened in
warm soapy water.
