Fire danger / Danger of injury
• Place your Sandwich Maker on a flat, slip-proof
and heat-resistant surface and not next to other
appliances that could radiate significant heat
(e.g. toasters, kitchen ovens).
• Do not operate the appliance in the area of easi-
ly flammable objects, such as under curtains or
next to rolls of paper towels.
Even when used properly, some parts of the
appliance become very hot (such as the top
and bottom casing panels). Be careful not to
touch these surfaces until they have cooled
down completely after the appliance is turned
off.
• During operation, the Sandwich Maker can be
opened and closed without danger using the
heat-insulated grip.
• Do not allow individuals (including children) to
use the appliance whose physical, sensorial or
mental abilities or lack of experience and know-
ledge hinder their safe usage of it if they have
not previously been supervised or instructed in
its correct usage.
• Tell children about the appliance and its potenti-
al dangers so that they do not play with it.
• Be careful when taking out the pre-pared sand-
wich. The appliance as well as the sandwiches
are very hot.
• Allow the appliance to cool completely after
switching it off before cleaning and storing it.
In order to avoid damaging the
appliance
• Remove your sandwiches only with a plastic or
wooden spatula or with another suitable, non-
metallic object to avoid damaging the non-stick
coating of the Sandwich Maker.
• For the same reason, do not use abrasive clean-
sers and sharp objects to clean the appliance.
Before the first use
1. Take your new Sandwich Maker out of the pak-
kaging. Remove all additional transport packing,
e.g. plastic wrap or cable holders.
2. Check before initial operation that the package
contents are complete and for possible visible
damages.
3. Read these operating instructions carefully.
4. Set up the appliance according to the safety
instructions.
Vapours can develop when the Sandwich
Maker is heated up for the first time. These va-
pours are not hazardous to your health, but
may affect the taste of your sandwich. For this
reason, we recommend turning on the Sand-
wich Maker once before preparing the first
sandwich and allowing it to heat up for several
minutes without food.
Operation
We recommend that you have all the sandwi-
ches ingredients already accordingly prepared
before you switch on the sandwich maker. We
recommend using toast bread for your sandwi-
ches. In addition to wheat bread, also try full
grain or multi-grain bread.
1. Open the lid of the Sandwich Maker. To do this
pull the fastener r on the handle e forward
and lift the lid up to its fullest extent. If necessary,
remove any dust from the toasting surfaces with
a dry cloth.
2. Grease the toasting surfaces with some
vegetable oil or butter.
3. Close the lid of the Sandwich Maker. The
appliance is closed when the fastener r on
the handle e audibly locks into place.
4. Insert the power plug into a socket to turn on the
appliance. The Sandwich Maker immediately
begins to heat up. The red operation light
"POWER"
q on the lid lights up.
