hints & tips:
G
Don't make the slot width too narrow or close the sandwich cage too
tightly and squash the food item.
G
Slices should be cleanly cut and not have ragged edges.
G
To defrost frozen bread, select the defrost position
control.
G
Cut ingredients thinly - do not use large chunks.
G
Dry/stale bread toasts more quickly than fresh bread and thinly sliced
bread toasts more quickly than thickly sliced bread. Therefore the
browning control should be set at a lower setting than usual.
G
For best results ensure that the bread slices are of an even thickness,
freshness and size.
G
In order to achieve uniform browning, we recommend you wait a
minimum of 30 seconds between each toasting so that the control can
automatically reset. Alternatively select a lower browning control setting
when additional toasting is carried out.
food safety:
G
Thoroughly cook or re-heat ingredients such as meat or fish
prior to adding them to the food item and ensure all
ingredients are piping hot throughout before serving. Do
not re-heat ingredients more than once.
G
Do not leave hot ingredients to cool before toasting the food
item.
G
Ensure all ingredients particularly meat or fish are fresh and
used within use-by dates.
G
Use other vegetable ingredients at room temperature to
avoid them chilling the hot cooked ingredients.
