To Use as a Press Grill (Closed Position)
NOTE: When cooking more than one piece of food, prepare so that the thickness of food items is consistent.
This will allow food to cook quickly, evenly and produces rich grill marks both top and bottom.
1. Follow steps 1 through 6 of the Operating Instructions section entitled: “To Use as a Contact Grill
(Open Position)” described previously.
2. Using a pot holder or oven mitt, pull down the arm and gently lower the top grill plate. The oating hinge
will automatically adjust to the thickness of the food.
3. To ensure perfectly grilled food, look to make sure that the top grill plate lies evenly on the top of
the food. Make sure food is centered on the grill plate. If desired, press the handle down several times
while cooking.
4. Adjust temperature control dial as needed. During grilling, the green READY indicator light will cycle on
and off during cooking. This indicates that the thermostat is maintaining the proper cooking temperature.
NOTE: The raised ridges and tilted bottom plate allow grease, fat and other drippings to run off away from
your food and into the drip tray.
5. Using an oven mitt or pot holder, grasp the handle and carefully lift the top grill plate. Always use
a plastic or wooden spatula to remove cooked food. Test food for doneness. Grill until the food is cooked
to your liking.
WARNING: Never use a sharp or metal object as it may damage the non-stick surface of the grill plates.
CAUTION: Do not leave appliance unattended during use!
6. Turn the temperature control dial to OFF. Remove the plug from the wall outlet.
Panini Preparation: Sandwich Assembly
To prepare delicious pressed sandwiches, follow these simple steps. It is customary to prepare panini from a
hearty loaf of bread. However, panini made from store-bought sliced breads or rolls can be delicious and simple
to prepare. Experiment with a variety of breads, tortillas, atbreads, even pitas. For health-conscious cooks, the
non-stick coating of the grill plates assures crisp and delicious toasting without the use of oil or butter. The raised
ridges and tilted bottom plate allow grease, fat and other drippings to run off away from your food and into the
drip tray.
1. Assemble panini. Brush or wipe both sides of the outside of the sandwich with olive oil, butter or
margarine (optional). When the green READY light illuminates, the Panini Grill is ready to use.
2. Follow steps 1 through 5 of the Operating Instructions section entitled: “To Use as a Contact Grill (Open
Position)” described previously.
3. Center panini, oiled side down, on the bottom grill plate.
4. Using a pot holder or oven mitt, pull down the arm and gently lower the top grill plate. The oating hinge
will automatically adjust to the thickness of the sandwiches.
5. To ensure perfectly grilled panini, all sandwiches placed on the Panini Grill at the same time must be the
same thickness. Look to make sure that the top grill plate lies evenly on the top of the bread. Make sure
sandwiches are centered on the grill plate. If desired, press the handle down several times while cooking.
6. Adjust temperature control dial as needed. During grilling, the green READY indicator light will cycle on
and off during cooking. This indicates that the thermostat is maintaining the proper cooking temperature.
NOTE: The raised ridges and tilted bottom plate allow cheese, fat, and other drippings to run off away
from your panini and into the drip tray.
7. Using an oven mitt or pot holder, grasp the handle and carefully lift the top grill plate. Continue grilling
until the bread is toasted and food is cooked to your liking.
8. To remove your grilled panini sandwiches, always use a plastic or wooden spatula.
WARNING: Never use a sharp or metal object as it may damage the non-stick surface of the grill plates.
CAUTION: Do not leave appliance unattended during use!
9. Turn the temperature control dial to OFF. Remove the plug from the wall outlet.
10. Allow panini to cool to a safe handling temperature before slicing.
