ADDITIONAL SAFETY

INFORMATION

This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other).

As a safety feature, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way.

If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does

not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this

safety feature.

A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting

from entanglement or tripping over a longer cord. An extension cord

may be used with care; however, be sure the marked electrical rating

is at least as great as the electrical rating of this appliance. The extension

cord should be positioned such that it does not drape over the counter

or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over.

The electrical rating of this appliance is listed on the bottom panel

of the unit.

Wolfgang Puck,

owner of the famous

Spago restaurants and

one of the most influential

chef-restauranteurs in

America, is credited with

reviving California’s rich

culinary heritage. His

cooking innovations,

a result of blending fresh

California ingredients with his classical French techniques, are enjoyed

by world leaders, stars and fellow chefs alike. He established other

trend-setting restaurants like Postrio in San Francisco, Chinois on

Main in Santa Monica, Vert and Trattoria del Lupo, and his latest creation,

Cut, a gourmet steakhouse in the Beverly Wilshire Hotel. Home chefs

can also share Mr. Puck’s talents through his cookbooks and, of

course, through his appliances!

Using Your Panini Maker

Your Panini Maker is best used with thick, crusty breads, such as French,

Italian, and focaccia. The top grill plate is weighted to compress and

grill a Panini to perfection in about 3 minutes (depending on the bread,

filling, and personal taste). Your Panini Maker can also be used to grill a

variety of food items, such as meats, poultry, fish, and vegetables.

1Completely pull out Drip Tray prior to use. Place drip tray

underneath grease channel so that any drippings will fall into

the tray.

2Preheat the grill to the desired temperature. Your grill will not

properly preheat unless the grill is in the closed position. Close the

cover and plug into a 120-volt 60 HZ AC outlet only. The red light will

turn on indicating that the appliance is preheating. After approximately

8 minutes, the green light will turn on indicating that the appliance is

preheated and ready for use.

3Open the lid using the black handle only, being careful not to touch

any hot surfaces such as the housing or grill plates. We recommend

the use of oven mitts or potholders to prevent the risk of injury.

4Place items to be cooked on the bottom grill plate.

5Lower the cover and cook the food according to desired

temperature or doneness. Do not apply excessive force to close the

lid and do not lock latch on handle.

Note: The green ready light is thermostatically controlled and will

cycle on and off during cooking to ensure that the correct

temperature is maintained.

Important: Grill only with the lid in the closed position.

6When you have finished using your appliance, unplug power

cord from outlet and allow the unit to cool down completely

before cleaning.

Before Your First Use

Carefully unpack the appliance and remove all packaging materials.

Ensure that the unit is unplugged. Remove the cooking plates and wash

in warm soapy water or place in the dishwasher.

Caution: Do not immerse the appliance, cord or plug in water.

To remove any dust that may have accumulated during packaging, wipe

the exterior with a clean, damp cloth.

Important: Do not use harsh or abrasive cleansers on any part of

the appliance.

About Your Panini Maker

The English translation of Panini means little breads, or rolls, and is

equated with sandwiches. In the United States, Panini has come to denote a

grilled Italian sandwich.

The Panini sandwiches of today are generally made using fresh, crusty

Italian breads. Your Panini Maker uses the weight of the heated upper

grill plate to grill both sides at the same time. Use your Panini Maker to

prepare authentic Italian Paninis and Cuban sandwiches, as well as to

grill poultry, meat, fish, sausages, and a variety of other foods. Your

Panini Maker is designed to sear foods perfectly. The special hinged top

plate inherent on all Panini grills allows the grill to be used on extra thick

sandwiches and food items.

Helpful Hints

• Be sure to always wash the grill plates after each use to remove any

residue that may have accumulated.

• Do not use sharp objects or attempt to cut food on top of the grill

plates.

• Always preheat for 8 minutes until the green ready light illuminates

before use. Have all ingredients in place before cooking starts.

• For best results, spread mayonnaise on both outer sides of panini

sandwiches before cooking. This will give darker, crustier grill marks

on the bread.

• Do not use metal utensils, as this may damage the nonstick surface

of the grill plates.

• If additional sandwiches are desired, lower the lid to preserve the

heat while you prepare the additional sandwiches.

• Let sandwiches cool slightly before eating. Cheese, especially,

becomes very hot. Soft or melted fillings will firm slightly.

• For easy storage, use the cord wrap on the underside of the unit.

Your Panini Maker is designed to stand vertically, taking up the least

amount of storage space. See figure 4.

• For easy cleanup, you can lay your food on a piece of parchment

paper, leaving a two-inch border on each side. Place a second piece

of parchment paper over your food, fold three sides in, and press to

make a sealed seam. Fold in one more time and press. Load packet

onto the panini with open end positioned over the drip tray so fat

can freely flow into the tray.

Care and Cleaning

Other than the cleaning mentioned in this manual, no other servicing or

maintenance of this appliance is required. Repairs, if necessary must be

performed by an authorized service center.

Caution: Do not immerse the appliance, cord or plug in water.

Before cleaning and when finished using your appliance, unplug power

cord from outlet and allow to cool completely. Before cleaning and when

finished using your appliance, unplug power cord from outlet and allow

to cool completely. Wipe the inside and the edges of the grilling plates

with a clean, damp cloth. To remove stubborn stains or food, use the

nylon brush included with your unit, or other utensils regarded as safe

for nonstick surfaces.

Do not use steel wool or scouring pads. Do not use abrasive cleansers.

Wipe the exterior with a clean, damp cloth. Dry all parts thoroughly

before using again or storing.

3Crack each egg into a separate cup.

4Place bread onto Panini Maker and slip one egg into each “well.”

Sprinkle with salt and pepper and lower the lid carefully. Note: If your

bread is too soft when loading into the grill, leave the ends of an

open pair of tongs in the grill before closing the lid to avoid popping

the delicate yolks.
