Before Your First Use
Carefully unpack the appliance and remove all packaging materials.
Ensure that the unit is unplugged. To remove any dust that may have
accumulated during packaging, wipe the exterior with a clean, damp
cloth.
Caution: Do not immerse the appliance, cord or plug in water.
Important: Do not use harsh or abrasive cleansers on any part of
the appliance.
We recommend a "trial run" to familiarize yourself with your grill and to
eliminate any protective substance or oil that may have been used for
packing and shipping. Plug the unit in and let it heat for 15 minutes. A
small amount of smoke and odor may be detected. This is normal and
will go away after subsequent uses. This is procedure is only needed
with new units before their first use.
About Your Wolfgang Puck
Panini Press
The English translation of Panini means little breads, or rolls and is
equated with sandwiches. In the United States, Panini has come to denote a
grilled Italian sandwich.
The Panini sandwiches of today are generally made using fresh, crusty
Italian breads. Your Wolfgang Panini Maker uses the weight of the
heated upper grill plate to grill both sides at the same time. Use your
Panini Maker to prepare authentic Italian Panini's and Cuban
sandwiches, as well as to grill poultry, meat, fish, sausages, and a variety
of other foods. Your Panini Maker is designed to sear foods perfectly.
The special hinged top plate inherent on all Panini grills allows the grill to
be used on extra thick sandwiches and food items.

Using Your Panini Press
Your Panini Maker is best used with thick, crusty breads, such as French,
Italian, and focaccia. You can grill a Panini to perfection in about 3
minutes (depending on the bread, filling, and personal taste). Your Panini
Maker can also be used to grill a variety of food items, such as meats,
poultry, fish, and vegetables.
Warning: Always ensure that your Drip Cup is in place before using your
Panini Press. Never use your Panini Maker without your Drip Cup in
place.
1
Preheat the grill. Your grill will not properly preheat unless the grill
is in the closed position. Close the cover and plug into a 120-volt
60 HZ AC outlet only. The red light will turn on indicating that the
appliance is preheating, and the green light will illuminate when the
appliance is preheated and ready for use.
2
Open the lid being careful not to touch any hot surfaces such as
the housing or grill plates. We recommend the use of oven mitts or
potholders to prevent the risk of injury.
3
Place items to be cooked on the bottom grill plate.
4
Lower the cover and cook the food according to desired
temperature or doneness. Do not apply excessive force to close
the lid.
Note: The green ready light is thermostatically controlled and will
cycle on and off during cooking to ensure that the correct
temperature is maintained.
Important: Grill only with the lid in the closed position.
5
When you have finished using your appliance, disconnect
the plug from the wall and allow the unit to cool down completely
before cleaning.
