OPERATING YOUR BREVILLE PANINI PRESS

Before first use
Remove any promotional materials and
packaging materials before use. Check
that the cooking plates are clean and
free of dust. If necessary, wipe with a
soft, damp cloth.
When using the panini press for the first
time you may notice a fine smoke haze.
This is caused by the heating of some of the
components. There is no need for concern.
To use as a panini press
1. Insert the power plug into a 110/120 volt
power outlet. The Red power 'On' light
will illuminate.
2. Allow the panini press to pre-heat with the
top cooking plate in the closed position
until the green 'READY' light illuminates.
3. During this time, prepare the panini. When
the green 'Ready' light illuminates, place
the panini onto the bottom cooking plate.
Always place panini towards the rear of
the bottom cooking plate.
4. Close the top cooking plate. The top
cooking plate has a floating hinge that is
designed to evenly press down on the
panini (see Fig. 1).
5. Toasting should take approximately 5-8
minutes. Exact toasting time will be a
matter of taste. It will also depend on the
type of bread and type of filling used.
6. When the panini is cooked, use the
handle to open the panini press and raise
the top cooking plate. Remove the panini
with the help of a plastic or wooden
spatula. Never use metal tongs or a knife
as these can cause damage to the non-
stick coating.
NOTE:
Always allow the panini press to
pre-heat until the green 'READY'
light illuminates.
NOTE:
The locking storage clip should
not be used to clamp down the top
cooking plate when the paninis are
in the panini press. The weight of
the top cooking plate will gradually
press down the sandwich during the
cooking process.
NOTE:
When using the panini press for
the first time you may notice a fine
smoke haze. This is caused by the
heating of some of the components.
There is no need for concern.
