6. Place the remaining bread on top with the buttered side on the
outside (this will give your toasted sandwich a lovely golden
colour during cooking).
7. Close and latch the lid and allow to cook for approx 4-5 minutes
until golden and cooked. Leave the sandwich in the toaster for
more or less time according to taste.
8. Release the latch and open the lid. Watch out for escaping
steam—use a tea towel or wear oven gloves. Remove the
toasted sandwich with a non-metallic spatula. Don't use a metal
blade as this can damage the non-stick surface of the plates.
9. Once cooked, take care when eating as fillings, especially fruit
or tomato, can be very hot.
Important points:
• Always allow a 2cm gap around the filling.
• Never overfill your toasted sandwich.
• Too much filling can leak out and also make the latch difficult
to close.
CLEANING

and allow it to fully cool down before cleaning it.
Do not immerse the main body, cord set or plug in
water or liquid of any kind.
Never use steel wool, scouring pads, abrasive

one minute with the lid closed. The cooking plates can also be
washed in a dishwasher.
