IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

The Elite Brand takes consumer safety very seriously. Products are designed and manufactured with our valued consumers’ safety in mind. Additionally, we ask that you exercise a level of caution when using any electrical appliance by following all instructions and important safeguards.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE AND SAVE FOR FUTURE REFERENCE

WARNING:
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed as below:

Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
To protect against electrical shock do not immerse the cord, plug, or appliance in water or any other liquid.
Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
Unplug from the outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before putting on or taking off parts.
Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner. Return the appliance to the nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair, or adjustment.
The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the appliance manufacturer may cause injuries.
Do not use outdoors.
Do not let the cord hang over the edge of the table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.
Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.
A fire may occur if the appliance is covered or touching flammable material, including curtains, draperies, walls, etc., when in operation.
Always attach the plug to the appliance first, then plug the cord into the wall outlet. To disconnect, turn any control to “off”, then remove the plug from the wall outlet.
Do not use the appliance for other than intended use.
Do not attempt to dislodge food when the appliance is plugged in
Do not place any of the following materials in the unit: Paper, cardboard, last, ic,c, and the like.
Some countertop and table surfaces, such as Corian®, wood, stone, and/or laminates, are not designed to withstand prolonged heat generated by certain appliances. It is recommended by countertop manufacturers and Maxi-Matic that a hot pad or trivet be placed under your Elite deep fryer to prevent possible damage to the surface.

SHORT CORD PURPOSE

Note:
A short power cord is provided to reduce the risk of personal injury resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a long cord. If an extension cord is used: (1) the marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the product; (2) the extension cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can unintentionally be pulled on or tri ed ver by children or pets.

POLARIZED PLUG

If this appliance is equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other), please follow the below instructions: To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If you are unable to fit the plug into the electrical outlet, try reversing the plug.

If the plug still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Never use the plug with an extension cord unless the plug can be fully inserted into the extension cord. Do not alter the plug of the product or any extension cord being used with this product. Do not attempt to defeat the safety PPO of a polarized plug.

HOW TO USE

Close the sandwich maker and plug it into the wall outlet; the red power light will go on. It will take about 5 to 8 minutes to reach baking temperature. When the Green Ready Light turns on, the sandwich maker is ready to cook!

Prepare desired sandwich fillings while the unit is heating up.
Open the top of the sandwich maker. Season the plates with butter or margarine if desired.
Pour the lace slice of bread onto the bottom plate.
Fill with desired sandwich condiments. Lay the top layer of bread over the top of the filling.
Close the top lid of the sandwich maker and use the clasp to fasten the handles. Steam will eject from between the sandwich maker so please ensure that fingers do not contact with steam.
Toast for approximately 3 to 6 minutes or until golden brown.
Open the sandwich maker and remove sandwiches using a plastic or wooden spatula. NEVER use metal or sharp utensils to remove food as they may scratch or damage the non-stick surface.
Close the top of the sandwich maker to preserve the heat until ready to toast the next sandwiches.
Unplug the unit when finished using it.

FOR BEST RESULTS:

Always preheat the sandwich maker before use. Plug the cord into a power outlet while preparing the fillings.
For soft or liquid sandwich fillings, use medium-sliced bread.
Flavored butter or margarine can also be used.
A teaspoon of sugar sprinkled on the outside of bread slices makes the toasted sandwiches crispier; especially fruit-filled sandwiches.
