Intended Use

This Panini Grill is intended for toasting small bread rolls and sandwiches or for grilling other foodstuffs. It is intended for domestic use only, it is not intended for use in commercial applications.

Safety instructions

How to avoid the risks of an electrical shock

• The Panini Maker may only be used in dry rooms indoors. Protect the appliance from spray water - even when it is switched off.
• Use the appliance only if the local mains voltage complies with the rated voltage of the appliance.
• Do not connect the appliance to a multiple connection power socket on which other electrical devices are operating at the same time; this could lead to an overload of the power circuit.
• Switch the appliance off after every use.
  Additionally, disconnect the power plug.
• When cleaning, ensure that water cannot permeate into the appliance. NEVER clean the appliance under running water.

NEVER submerse the appliance in water or other liquids.

• Protect the power cable from damage. Be careful not to pinch/squeeze it, and keep it away from hot objects. Do not allow the power cable to hang freely from a table or workcounter.

• NEVER open the housing of the appliance.

• Arrange for defective power plugs and/or cables to be replaced at once by qualified technicians or our Customer Service Department.

• Repairs may only be carried out by experienced specialists or workshops authorised to do so by the manufacturer.

How to avoid the risk of fire and injury

• Place your Panini Maker on a flat, non-slip and heat-resistant surface and not on or close to other appliances that could emit a significant level of heat (e.g. toasters, kitchen ovens).
• Do not operate the appliance close to easily flammable objects, such as 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 housing plates). After switching the appliance off, take care not to touch these surfaces until they have cooled down completely.

• To avoid a dangerous overheating, ALWAYS unwind the full length of the power cable.
  During use, the Panini Maker can be opened and closed without risk by using the heat-insulated grip.
• This appliance is not intended for use by individuals (including children) with restricted physical, physiological or intellectual abilities or deficiencies in experience and/or knowledge unless they are supervised by a person responsible for their safety or receive from this person instruction in how the appliance is to be used.

• Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

• Do not operate this appliance by means of an external time switch or a separate remote control system.

• After switching it off, allow the appliance to cool completely before cleaning and storing it.

You can thus prevent the appliance from being damaged

• To avoid damaging the non-stick coating of the Sandwich Maker, remove your cooked foods only with a plastic or wooden spatula or some other suitable, non-metallic implement.
• For the same reason, do not use abrasive cleaners and sharp objects to clean the appliance.

Commissioning

1. Take the appliance out of the packaging. Remove all additional transport packing, e.g. plastic wrap or cable holders.
2. Before the first usage, check that all items have been delivered and there are no visible damages.
3. Read these operating instructions carefully.
4. Set up the appliance according to the safety instructions.
5. Open the safety lock 4
6. Clean the appliance with a damp cloth as described in "Cleaning and Care".
7. Close the appliance.
8. Insert the plug into a power socket and allow the appliance to heat up at its maximum temperature setting for approx. 5 minutes.

① Note:

Due to manufacturing residues, this initial heating up could result in a light production of odour and smoke. This is completely normal and is not dangerous.

Provide for sufficient ventilation, for example, open a window.

1. After being heated up, remove the plug from the wall socket and allow the appliance to cool down.
2. Clean the appliance once more with a damp cloth.

Operation

1. Close the appliance lid at the grip 6
2. Push the grease catchment tray ① into the appliance.
3. Insert the power plug into a wall power socket. The red control lamp "Power" ② glows.
4. Select the desired level with the heating level selector 1. As soon as the selected heating level has been reached, the green control lamp "Ready" ⑤ glows.

① Note:

The green control lamp "Ready" 5 also lights up when the heat level regulator 1 is at position 0^ As soon as you have set the heat level regulator 1 to the required position, the green control lamp "Ready" 5 will go off until the desired temperature has been attained.

① Note:

The green control lamp "Ready" ⑤ can repeatedly switch itself off. This means that the programmed temperature has fallen, and the appliance is automatically heating itself up again!

1. Open the appliance lid and place the foodstuff to be toasted/grilled on the lower hotplate 9.
2. Close the appliance lid. Due to the positioning of the upper hotplate 9 being variable, even with thick items it is always parallel to the lower hotplate 9. This ensures an optimal cooking result.
3. After a short period check the browning of the foodstuff. To do this, open the appliance lid.

① Note:

Start with short cooking times and expand on them until you have discovered the ideal duration.

1. When you are satisfied with the browning, open the lid and remove the foodstuff.

Warning:

Do not use sharp or pointed objects to remove the foodstuff. They could damage the surfaces of the hotplates 9!

1. Turn the heat level regulator 1 to "0" and remove the plug from the power socket.

Warning:

When the appliance is not in use, always remove the plug from the power socket. It is not sufficient to simply place the heat level regulator ① in the position "0"!

Tips and Tricks

To make meat softer and to speed up grilling, it can be marinaded beforehand. Suitable as the basis for this are, for example, sour cream, red wine, vinegar, buttermilk, or the fresh juice from papayas or pineapples. Subject to taste, add herbs and spices. Do not add salt, salt extracts water from the meat and makes it hard. Place the meat in the marinade so that it is completely covered and then close the receptacle. It is best to let it stand overnight.

• The heating plates g are non-stick coated, so extra fat is not necessary. If you still want to use fat anyway, ensure that it is a fat/oil suitable for frying, such as canola oil.
• If you are not sure if the foodstuff is cooked in the middle, use a standard commercial meat thermometer.

Cleaning and Care

Important!

Before cleaning, remove the plug from the wall socket and wait until the appliance has cooled down completely. Risk of injury!

Important!

Never clean the appliance under running water, and never submerge it in water. The appliance could be irreparably damaged!

• Draw the cleaning scraper 10, after the hot plates 9 have cooled, over the hot plates 9 so that the fat and other residues are gathered together so that you can better remove it.
• Wipe the hotplates with a moist cloth. For stubborn soiling use a mild detergent on the cloth. To avoid destroying the non-stick coating, do not use aggressive detergents, rough spon-ges or sharp objects.

It is best to lay a wet dish cloth on encrusted residues in order to soften them.

A damp cloth is also sufficient for cleaning the outer surfaces of the appliance.

Be sure to allow all parts to dry completely before using the Panini Maker again.

Wipe the cleaning scraper with a moist cloth. For stubborn soiling, apply a mild detergent to the cloth.

Storage

Store the cleaned appliance at a dry location. Close the safety lock ④ Wrap the power cable ③ around the cable retainers on the underside of the appliance.
