• Always pre-heat the unit before use.
• Be careful when biting into sandwiches containing fillings such as cheese, tomato or
jam, as they retain heat and can burn if eaten too quickly.
• It is not necessary to butter the outside of the bread, as the unit has non-stick cooking
surfaces. However, to encourage even browning of bread, spreading a small amount
of butter or margarine is recommended.
• Unplug and allow the unit to cool completely before cleaning.
• Clean cooking surfaces with a cloth or sponge dampened with hot, soapy water.
DO NOT IMMERSE THE UNIT IN WATER OR ANY OTHER LIQUID. DO NOT
PLACE THE UNIT IN A DISHWASHER.
• To remove cooked-on food, use a nylon scrubby or non-abrasive cleanser. A steel
wool pad or other abrasive cleansers may damage the non-stick surface.
• To clean the exterior, simply wipe with a dampened cloth and polish dry with a dry soft
cloth.
• Store it in closed position. Simply bring the cooking surfaces together and press the
securing latch located on the side of the cast-metal arm. This will lock the cooking
surfaces together. The unit stands on end for convenient space-saving vertical
storage. Wrap cord under unit.
• DO NOT use metal utensils or sharp metal objects such as a knife, as this will damage
the non-stick coating.
• DO NOT cut food on top of the unit's cooking surface.
