Cooking plates with DuraCeramic

coating FEATURES DuraCeramic

coated cooking plates The cooking plates feature the exclusive DuraCeramic

coating. This specialised natural ceramic coating is designed to transfer heat quicker and more efciently than standard non‑stick coatings – meaning faster cooking times for your delicious home-cooked snacks. In addition, the DuraCeramic

coating is scratch resistant and 4 times more durable than standard non-stick coatings – this is a product built to last. Peace of mind comes from the fact that the DuraCeramic

coating is PTFE and PFOA free, so this exclusive coating is durable and easy to clean. DuraCeramic

coating – designed to handle whatever you throw at it with ease. Variable temperature control The variable temperature control allows you to change the heat setting for cooking different types of food. A low temperature setting is ideal for cooking foods with a high sugar content (e.g. pastries and croissants). A higher temperature setting is recommended for breads and panini rolls. Locking and unlocking the step hinge The oating step hinge must be unlocked before using the sandwich press otherwise the lid cannot be opened. The weight of the top cooking plate will gradually press down on the sandwich during cooking, unless you have moved the oating step hinge to position 1, 2, or 3. When storing or transporting the sandwich press, the oating step hinge must be locked . You must not use the lock to clamp down the top plate when the sandwiches are in your sandwich press or for pre-heating. UK5 Using the oating step hinge You can adjust the oating step hinge of your sandwich press to move the top cooking plate. This lets you place food on the bottom cooking plate (open sandwiches, bacon, eggs, etc.) and the top cooking plate will not come into contact with the food during cooking. You can move the top cooking plate to 3 different positions, depending on the thickness of the food that you are cooking, and how close to the food you want the cooking plate to be.

1. Remove any promotional labels or stickers from your sandwich

2. Place your sandwich press on a at, level surface. Move the

oating step hinge to unlocked to release the top plate and open it.

3. Check that the cooking plates are clean and free of dust. If

necessary, wipe over with a damp cloth.

USING YOUR SANDWICH PRESS

Take care around hot surfaces. The hot plates get VERY HOT. DO NOT touch any parts until completely cooled. Steam will escape from all around the sandwich press during cooking and when opening the lid. Note: During rst use there may be a small amount of smoke and a slight burning odour. This is completely normal and will clear within a few minutes.

1. Always fully unwind the power cord from the cord storage area

of the appliance before use. Insert the plug into a mains supply socket and switch the socket on.

2. Check that the cord is not overhanging the work surface. The

power light and the ready light will both illuminate.

3. Select the required heat setting (low, medium or high) using the

variable temperature control.

4. Allow the sandwich press to preheat in the closed position until

the ready light goes out. The ready light will turn on and off during use.

5. Place the prepared sandwich onto the bottom cooking plate.

Always place sandwiches towards the rear of the bottom cooking plate.

6. Close the top cooking plate which has a oating plate that is

designed to evenly press down on the sandwich. The lid must be closed for cooking. If you are cooking thicker sandwiches, or open sandwiches, move the oating hinge step to setting 1, 2 or 3 to position the top cooking plate higher.

7. Toasting should take approximately 5–8 minutes. The exact

toasting time will depend on the type of bread and the type of lling used.

8. When the sandwich is cooked, open the lid. Remove it using a

plastic or wooden spatula. Never use metal tongs or a knife as these can cause damage to the DuraCeramic

coating. CLEANING Always unplug your appliance before cleaning it. Never immerse any part of the appliance or power cord and plug in water or any other liquid.

1. Switch off and unplug the sandwich press from the mains

2. Allow your sandwich press to cool slightly. The unit is easier to

clean when slightly warm.

3. Always clean your sandwich press after each use to prevent a

build up of baked on foods.

4. Wipe the cooking plates with a soft cloth. If cooked-on food is

not removed by this method, reheat the unit for 1–2 minutes, then brush with a little oil or melted butter. Allow to stand for ve minutes then wipe with a damp cloth.

5. To clean the outside of the sandwich press wipe over with a

damp cloth. Polish with a soft dry cloth. To avoid damaging the DuraCeramic

coating on the cooking plates, do not use harsh or abrasive cleaning materials. Do not use spray-on non-stick coatings because they will affect the performance of the DuraCeramic

coatings on the cooking plates. STORAGE

1. Allow the sandwich press to cool fully before storing and ensure

that the unit is clean.

2. Wrap the cord in the cord storage area below the unit.

3. Lock the plates together by rst lowering the top plate and then

moving the oating step hinge to locked . This will secure the plates together.

4. Store the unit upright. Alternatively, on a at, level surface, away

from the edge and where it cannot be easily knocked over.

RECIPE IDEAS Bread Most types of bread can be used; white, wholemeal, kibbled wheat, wholegrain, raisin loaf and so on. Your sandwich press is ideal for toasting foccacia, Turkish bread, baguettes as well as bread rolls. Raisin bread, brioche or other sweet breads which contain a high sugar content will tend to brown quicker, so we recommend using a lower heat setting. Fillings Try to use canned or pre-cooked fruit as fresh fruit may give off excessive juices when heated. Be careful when biting into sandwiches containing llings such as cheese and tomato or jam, because they retain heat and can burn if eaten too quickly. Never overll your sandwich, especially when using ingredients that contain food colouring, or coloured cheeses. Too much lling can leak out and may stain the housing of your sandwich press. Toasting bread The unique at plate design makes your sandwich press ideal for toasting plain breads, and Turkish bread, without any llings or spreads. Try toasting Turkish bread with jams for a great alternative to standard breads at breakfast. Reheating If the sandwich is not being eaten immediately, place it on a paper napkin to absorb condensation. To keep for longer, place on a rack in an oven-proof dish to keep warm in a low oven, about 100ºC. The sandwich will keep hot for up to 20 minutes this way, but will then begin to dry out. Fat-free snacks Due to the non‑stick ceramic at plate design, it is not necessary to use any butter or margarine on the outside of your toasted snacks.
