Frequently Asked Questions - TKG SM 7 KALORIK

Why does my appliance produce smoke on first use?

This is normal: the non-stick coating emits a slight harmless smoke. Let the appliance heat up empty for 10 minutes to eliminate it.

Should I butter the plates before cooking a croque-monsieur?

No, it is not necessary thanks to the non-stick coating. You can however add a little butter for more flavor.

How long does it take to cook a croque-monsieur?

About 2 to 3 minutes, but adjust according to your cooking preference. The green light indicates the temperature is ready.

Can I use a metal fork or knife to remove the croque?

No, use only a wooden or heat-resistant plastic spatula. Metal utensils would scratch the non-stick coating.

USE

• Protective coating burn off will cause smoking on first use. This is NOT harmful and will disappear after a short time. However, we advise you to operate the appliance for 10 minutes without food before the first use.
• When using for the first time, wipe the surface of the plates with a damp cloth, then dry. You may season the plates with butter, margarine or cooking fat. Since the sandwich maker has a non-stick surface, the use of butter or oil is optional.
• Close the sandwich maker and plug into the electrical outlet. The red pilot light will come to indicate that the appliance is switched on.
  • Prepare your sandwich while the unit is heating.
• The green pilot light will come on when the cooking temperature is reached. During use, this ready light will come on and off regularly. This simply means that the thermostat is regulating the appliance's temperature.
  • Attention: during operation, the baking plates heat up. Pay attention not to get burned.
• Fully open the sandwich maker. Place a slice of bread in the bottom half with the buttered side against the plate.
• Fill the sandwich.
• Add the top slice with the buttered side up and carefully close the toaster. Do not force shut. Steam will be ejected from between the plates; make sure that fingers do not come into contact with it.
• Lock the two halves with the wire clip while toasting.
• Your sandwich will be toasted in 2 to 3 min or longer to suit your taste. Open the toaster and remove sandwich using a plastic or wooden spatula. Never use a metal knife as this may damage the non-stick coating.
• Close the lid to preserve the heat until you are ready to toast the next sandwiches.
  • Prepare additional sandwiches if desired while the others are cooking.
• Unplug immediately when finished.

HINTS FOR BEST RESULTS

• Always preheat before use. Plug cord into power outlet while preparing the fillings.
• Flavoured butter may also be used.
• For additional flavour use bacon dripping. Brush drippings on the outside of the bread.

CLEANING

• Before cleaning, unplug and wait for the appliance to cool down.
• Wipe the outside with only a slightly moistened cloth ensuring that no moisture, oil or grease enters the cooling slots.
• Wipe the inside and the edges of the plate with a paper towel or a soft cloth.
• Do not clean the inside or outside with any abrasive scouring pad or steel wool as this will damage the finish.
• Do not immerse in water or any other liquid.
