Frequently Asked Questions - ST109562.13 Emerio

How to prepare a toastie with this appliance?

Plug in the appliance, wait until the green light turns off (preheating). Place the buttered bread slices with the buttered side facing outward on the lower plate, add the filling, close and lock. Let cook for 2 to 4 minutes until the green light comes back on. Remove with a wood or plastic spatula.

Why do the red and green lights turn on?

The red light indicates that the appliance is powered. The green light indicates that the plates are heating; it turns off when cooking temperature is reached and turns on again when the thermostat maintains the temperature.

Can I use metal utensils to remove the sandwich?

No, never use metal utensils (knives, metal spatulas) as they would damage the non-stick coating. Use only wood or heat-resistant plastic.

How to clean the non-stick plates?

Unplug the appliance and let it cool completely. Clean the plates with a soft damp cloth. For crumbs, use a very soft brush. Never immerse the appliance in water and do not use abrasive cleaners.

What to do if the power cord is damaged?

Do not replace the cord yourself. Return the appliance to a HEMA store or entrust it to a qualified professional to avoid any risk of electric shock.

Can the appliance be used by children?

Yes, but only under supervision and from age 8, after receiving instructions. Children must not play with the appliance. Cleaning by a child aged 8 or older must be supervised. Keep the appliance and its cord out of reach of children under 8 years.

How to recycle the appliance at the end of its life?

This appliance is marked with the selective sorting symbol (WEEE). Do not dispose of it with household waste. Take it to a recycling center or to your HEMA store for recycling in accordance with directive 2012/19/EU.

What is the warranty period and how to activate it?

The warranty is 2 years from the date of purchase. Keep your receipt. For a claim, present the appliance and proof of purchase at a HEMA store. The warranty does not cover normal wear, external damage, or incorrect use.

Can I prepare other foods than sandwiches?

The appliance is designed only for toasting sandwiches (sandwich bread). Do not use other foods that could damage the coating or cause overflow. Follow the filling tips in the manual: cheese, ham, pineapple, tomatoes, etc.

What to do if the sandwich is too thick and the appliance does not close?

Never force the lock. Remove some filling to reduce thickness. If the bread is too loaded, the appliance may not close properly and the sandwich will not cook evenly.
