Frequently Asked Questions - Pocket Sandwich Maker DPM200GBAQ06 Dash

How to use the Dash Pocket Sandwich Maker?

Plug in the appliance, wait for the indicator light to turn off indicating it is hot. Open the lid by the cool-touch handle, place a slice of bread, add your ingredients, then a second slice. Close and let cook for 3 to 5 minutes depending on the type of bread and filling.

How to clean the appliance?

Unplug the appliance and let it cool completely. Wipe the plates with a non-abrasive damp cloth. Never use abrasive cleaners or metal utensils to avoid damaging the non-stick coating. Do not immerse in water.

Can I use crustless bread?

Yes, you can use crustless bread. Make sure the slices are of appropriate size to prevent the filling from escaping during cooking.

What types of ingredients can I use?

You can use cheese, cooked meat, vegetables, scrambled eggs, etc. Avoid overly liquid ingredients or those that overflow. For best results, preheat the appliance well.

Does the appliance heat up quickly?

Yes, the Pocket Sandwich Maker heats up in a few minutes. The indicator light turns off when cooking temperature is reached. Allow about 2 to 3 minutes preheating.

Is it safe to leave the appliance unattended?

No, it is imperative never to leave the appliance unattended while in use. Unplug it after each use and keep it out of reach of children.

Can I use metal utensils?

No, never use metal utensils as they scratch and damage the non-stick coating. Use wooden, silicone, or heat-resistant plastic utensils.

What to do if the appliance does not heat up?

First, check that the plug is properly inserted and that the outlet works. If the indicator does not light up, contact StoreBound customer service at 1-800-898-6970. Do not attempt to repair the appliance yourself.

Is the non-stick coating durable?

Yes, but it requires proper maintenance. Do not use metal utensils, do not clean with abrasive sponges, and do not cook at very high temperatures unnecessarily.

TROUBLESHOOTING

TIPS & TRICKS

The blue Indicator Light on the Pocket Sandwich Maker keeps shutting off.

This is normal. During the cooking process, the heating element will automatically turn on and off to regulate the temperature and ensure that the Cooking Surface does not get too hot or cold. When this occurs, the Indicator Light turns on and off.

How do I know when the Pocket Sandwich Maker is heated and ready to use?

When the Pocket Sandwich Maker reaches the optimal temperature, the blue Indicator Light will turn off and that means you're ready to get cooking!

There is no on/off button.

How do I turn the Pocket Sandwich Maker off and on? To turn on, simply plug in the power cord. When you're done cooking, turn off the Pocket Sandwich Maker by unplugging it.

When using my Pocket Sandwich Maker, the Cover gets hot.

Always lift and lower the Cover by the Cover Handle. To prevent personal injury, DO NOT lift the Cover so that your arm is over the Cooking Surface as it is hot and may cause injury. Lift from the side.

After using my Pocket Sandwich Maker a few times, food is starting to stick to the surface. What is happening?

There is probably a build-up of burnt food residue on the Cooking Surface. This is normal, especially when cooking foods with sugar. Allow the appliance to cool fully, pour on a little cooking oil and let sit for 5-10 minutes. Scrub the Cooking Surface with a non-abrasive sponge or soft bristled brush to dislodge food. Use a damp, soapy cloth to wipe down the Cooking Surface. Rinse the cloth and wipe again. If food remains, pour on cooking oil and let sit for a few hours, then scrub and wipe clean.

My Pocket Sandwich Maker is making a hissing sound while it's cooking. Is this normal? If you overfill the Pocket Sandwich Maker, it will make a noise as extra steam is released.

The Indicator Light will not turn on and the Cooking Surface is failing to heat.

Ensure that the power cord is plugged into the power outlet.

Check to make sure the power outlet is operating correctly.

Determine if a power failure has occurred in your home, apartment, or building.

For soft or jelly-like sandwich fillings, use medium sliced white or whole wheat bread. For small amounts of filling use thinner bread.

Add butter to the Cooking Surface for extra flavor or use a basting brush on the bread slices before grilling.

Get fancy! Suggested garnishes for sandwiches include: Lettuce, parsley, mint, stuffed olive halves, onion, tomato etc...

A teaspoon of sugar sprinkled on the outside makes toasted sandwiches crispier (especially for sandwiches with fruit fillings).
