Using Your Panini Maker
Your Panini Maker is best used with thick, crusty breads, such as French, Italian,
and focaccia. The top grill plate is weighted to compress and grill a Panini to
perfection in about 3 minutes (depending on the bread, filling, and personal taste).
Your Panini Maker can also be used to grill a variety of food items, such as meats,
poultry, fish, and vegetables.
1 Completely pull out Drip Drawer prior to use. Place drip tray underneath
grease runoff so that any drippings will fall into the tray.
2 Preheat the grill to the desired temperature. Close the cover and plug into a
120-volt 60 HZ AC outlet only. The red light will turn on indicating that the
appliance is preheating. After approximately 8 minutes, the green light will turn
on indicating that the appliance is preheated and ready for use.
3 Open the lid using the black handle only, being careful not to touch any hot
surfaces such as the housing or grill plates. We recommend the use of oven
mitts or potholders to prevent the risk of injury.
4 Place items to be cooked on the bottom grill plate.
5 Lower the cover and cook the food according to desired temperature or
doneness. Do not apply excessive force to close the lid and do not lock latch
on handle.
Note: The green ready light is thermostatically controlled and will cycle on
and off during cooking to ensure that the correct temperature is maintained.
Important: Grill only with the lid in the closed position.
6 When you have finished using your appliance, disconnect the plug from the
wall and allow the unit to cool down completely before cleaning.
