Making toasted sandwiches
Two different types of sandwich plates can be used for making
sandwiches: the cut & seal plates and the rectangular-shaped plates.The
cut & seal plates cut and seal the bread, producing triangular toasted
sandwiches.The rectangular-shaped plates only seal the bread and
produce rectangular-shaped toasted sandwiches.

1 Place the sandwich plates in the appliance.
When you place the plates into the appliance properly, you will hear a
click.
2 Slightly grease the plates with a little butter or oil.
C
3 Select the sandwich setting by turning the thermostat knob to
setting ◊.
4 Insert the plug into the wall socket.
You can adjust the length of the cord by winding part of it round the
brackets on the base of the appliance.
5 The red power-on light and the green ready-to-cook light go
on.
6 Prepare the ingredients for your toasted sandwich.
For each sandwich you need two slices of bread and a suitable filling.
Read the chapter 'Recipes for toasted sandwiches' for suggestions.
Slightly butter the sides of the bread that come into contact with the
plates to obtain an even, golden brown result.

7 The sandwich maker is ready for use as soon as the ready-to-
cook light goes out.
Put two slides of bread with the buttered sides on the lower plate,
spread the filling onto the bread and put two other slices of bread on
top, with the buttered sides pointing up.You can also toast only one
sandwich, if you wish.To ensure optimal sealing, fillings should not be
spread too close to the edges of the slices of bread.
C
8 Close the appliance.
Lower the upper plate carefully onto the bread until the auto-lock
mechanism clamps it onto the lower plate.
Never leave the sandwich maker unattended when it is switched on.
While cooking, the green ready-to-cook light goes on and goes out
from time to time as an indication that the heating elements are
switched on and off to maintain the correct temperature.
