1. Always operate the Grill & Panini Press on a dry, level, heat-resistant surface.
Plug the cord into a 120 volt, AC outlet ONLY. The red power light will
illuminate. While the Grill & Panini Press is preheating (approximately 5
minutes), prepare the sandwiches. The green ready light will light up when the
Grill & Panini Press is ready to use.
2. Carefully lift the hinged top plate and place the sandwiches onto the bottom
plate. Close the top plate onto the sandwiches. The top plate is fitted with a
floating hinge that is designed to evenly press down on the food being grilled.
3. Making Paninis on the Grill & Panini Press should take approximately 5 to 8
minutes, depending on the type and thickness of the bread and the fillings used.
Carefully lift the top plate to view the toasting process. When sandwiches are
toasted, remove them from the Grill & Panini Press with a plastic spatula.
NOTE: Never use metal utensils as they can cause damage to the non-stick
coating on the grill plates.
4. Disconnect the cord from the electrical outlet and allow the Grill & Panini Press
to cool before removing the plates for cleaning.
5. Clean your appliance after each use by following the directions in the “Cleaning
Your Grill & Panini Press” section.
• A small amount of smoke and/or odor may occur upon heating due to the
release of manufacturing oils – this is normal.
• Some minor expansion/contraction sounds may occur during heating and
cooling – this is normal.

Bread – Most types of bread can be used. Raisin bread, brioche or other sweet
breads, which have a high sugar content, tend to brown more quickly. Due to the
non-stick coated grill plates, it is not necessary to use any butter or margarine on the
outside of your toasted snacks.
Fillings – If using fruit, try to use canned or pre-cooked fruit as fresh fruit may give
off juices when heated. Be careful when biting into sandwiches containing fillings
like cheeses and jams, as they retain more heat which can burn if eaten too quickly.
Avoid using metal utensils as they may permanently damage the non-stick cooking
surfaces.
Do not use spray-on or aerosol type non-stick coatings, as this will affect the
performance of the non-stick surfaces of the grill plates.
