NEVER submerse the appliance in water or

• Protect the power cable from damage. Be careful
not to pinch/squeeze it, and keep it away from
hot objects. Do not allow the power cable to
hang freely from a table or workcounter.
• NEVER open the housing of the appliance.
• Arrange for defective power plugs and/or cables
to be replaced at once by qualified technicians
or our Customer Service Department.

the manufacturer.
How to avoid the risk of fire
and injury
• Place your Panini Maker on a flat, non-slip and
heat-resistant surface and not on or close to other
appliances that could emit a significant level of
heat (e.g. toasters, kitchen ovens).
• Do not operate the appliance close to easily
flammable objects, such as curtains or next to
rolls of paper towels.
Even when used properly, some parts of the
appliance become very hot (such as the top
and bottom housing plates). After switching the
appliance off, take care not to touch these sur-
faces until they have cooled down completely.
• To avoid a dangerous overheating, ALWAYS
unwind the full length of the power cable.
• During use, the Panini Maker can be opened and
closed without risk by using the heat-insulated grip.
• This appliance is not intended for use by indivi-
duals (including children) with restricted physical,
physiological or intellectual abilities or deficiences
in experience and/or knowledge unless they are
supervised by a person responsible for their safety
or receive from this person instruction in how the
appliance is to be used.
• Children should be supervised to ensure that
they do not play with the appliance.
• Do not operate this appliance by means of an
external time switch or a separate remote control
system.
• After switching it off, allow the appliance to cool
completely before cleaning and storing it.
You can thus prevent the appliance
from being damaged
• To avoid damaging the non-stick coating of the
Sandwich Maker, remove your cooked foods
only with a plastic or wooden spatula or some
other suitable, non-metallic implement.
• For the same reason, do not use abrasive cleaners
and sharp objects to clean the appliance.
