∙ Once the operating temperature has been
reached, the green indicator light comes
on and shows the appliance is ready for
use.
∙ Open the toaster.
∙ Place the prepared food or sandwiches
onto the lower plate and close the lid.
∙ To make sandwiches with ordinary bread :
∙ Press both housing elements together
and ensure they lock into place. Caution:
Do not try to close the plates by force;
if they are diffi cult to close, reduce the
amount of food.
∙ To make a sandwich with panini, or to grill
food:
∙ Close the lid lightly, but do not lock it.
∙ We recommend the following cooking
times:
∙ approx. 3-4 minutes for sandwiches,
∙ approx. 4-5 minutes for panini
sandwiches,
∙ For grilling, the cooking times depend
largely on the food type.
∙ Open the appliance and take out the food.
In order to prevent the non-stick plates
from being damaged, do not use sharp or
pointed objects while placing or removing
food.
∙ If you want to go on cooking, close the top
plate and wait until the ready-light comes
on again before repeating the next cycle.
∙ Always remove the plug from the wall
socket after use and allow the appliance
to cool down before cleaning.
Cleaning and care
∙ Before cleaning, remove the plug from the
wall socket and wait until the appliance
has cooled down with the cooking plates
open.
∙ To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not
clean the appliance with water and do not
immerse it in water.
∙ Do not use abrasives or harsh cleaning
solutions.
∙ With its non-stick grill plates, the
appliance requires little maintenance. The
plates may be cleaned with a soft damp
cloth or a soft brush.
∙ The exterior of the housing can be
cleaned with a soft damp cloth.
Recipes
Sandwiches
∙ Before toasting, always lightly butter the
outside of the bread and place the slices
with the buttered side against the cooking
plates. The butter helps the browning
process and makes it easier to remove
the toast from the cooking plates.
∙ The fi lling (cheese, ham etc.) should be
cut to match the sandwich shape. Ensure
that the fi lling does not overlap the slice of
bread.
