To Use as a Sandwich Press
Note: Use the timer to monitor the time elapsed during preheating or cooking (see: Timer
Dial). The timer will ring once when the set time has elapsed. The grill will not turn off, but will
remain heating.
1. Prepare the grill for use as described in section Operating Your Grill Barbecue. Turn the
temperature dial to the SANDWICH position and allow the grill to preheat until the red HEA-
TING power indicator goes out.
2. Ensure the tilt dial is in the FLAT position (level).
3. During preheating, prepare the sandwiches.
WARNING! During operation and especially on placing food on the preheated cooking pla-
tes or on opening the grill during operation, hot fat and juices could splash from the appli-
ance. Always keep your hands and arms as well as any other objects in sufficient distance to
the appliance during operation to avoid scalds and damage. Ensure, that all persons stay in
sufficient distance to the appliance during operation. Always use the handle for opening the
grill. Take care not to upset the appliance, when lifting the top plate to the vertical position.
4. Place the sandwiches onto the base plate. Always place sandwiches towards the rear of
the base plate.
5. Use the handle to carefully close the top plate.
The top plate has a floating hinge system that is designed to
press down evenly on the sandwich. The grilling height control
on the right metal arm of the top plate is used to adjust for the
thickness of the sandwich. The levelling handle on the right
front side of the top plate of the grill may be used to even out
the top plate.
6. Toasting should take approximately 5-8 minutes. Exact toasting time will be a matter of pre-
ference. It will also depend on the type of bread and filling used. If necessary, open the grill
and check the doneness of your food. Beware of hot steam and condensate when lifting the
top plate.
7. When the sandwich is cooked, use the handle to lift the top plate until it stops in the verti-
cal position.
CAUTION! Do not use any sharp or hard objects for scratching or cutting on the cooking plates.
8. Remove the sandwich using a plastic spatula. Never use metal tongs or a knife as these
can cause damage to the non-stick coating of the cooking plates.
There is no need to wait for the appliance to re-heat, before placing other food on the coo-
king plates.
