3. Turn the power switch to the “ON” position. The power “ON” indication light located on the control panel
will be illuminated. If the indicator light does not illuminate refer to the trouble shooting section of the
manual.
4. Allow the press toaster to preheat for approximately 30 minutes. The temperature ready indicator light
will turn itself off once the press toaster has reached its optimum operating temperature. The press
toaster is preset to operate with a 205°C surface cooking temperature.

Stainless Steel Protection
Cleaning
For cleaning a stain on the surface of the stainless steel, check the cleaning section of the operation
manual.
All metal surfaces should be checked while cleaning for damage, scuffs or scapes as these can lead to rust
and further damage to the product.
Corrosion Protection
Stainless steel exhibits good resistance to corrosion however, if not properly maintained stainless steel can
rust.
Any sign of mild rust or corrosion should be thoroughly cleaned with warm soapy water and dried as soon
as possible.
NEVER use abrasive pads or cleaners for cleaning.
Medium rust or corrosion can treated by a commercial cleaning agent that contains
citric/oxalic/nitric/phosphoric. Do NOT use cleaning agents with chlorides or other harsh chemicals as this
can cause corrosion. A lemon slice or a few drops few drops of lemon juice added to the water can be
used as a substitute. After treatment, wash with warm (not hot) soapy water and dry thoroughly.
Thoroughly wipe the surfaces dry after cleaning and do NOT let water pool on the unit. Check crevices and
folds for pooling.
If an abrasive product is used while cleaning, thoroughly dry the unit and leave in an open or oxidised
area for the stainless steel protective layer to replenish.
When using, ensure all liquids and moisture is cleaned up straight away. Food liquids such as juices from
vegetables and fruits should NOT be left on preparation surfaces.
Do NOT leave items on the stainless steel such as cutting boards, rubber mats and bottles.
Surface Finish
To protect the polish, stainless steel should be dried by wiping a dry soft cloth in the same direction as
grained polish.
For NON-food contact surfaces, a light oil can be wiped on the surfaces with a cloth to enhance the
stainless steel surface. Wipe in the direction of the grain.
Some commercial stainless stain cleaners can leave residue or film on the metal; this may trap fine
particles of food on the surface, thus deeming the surfaces not food safe.
