Never leave the appliance unattended.

Before first use, wipe down all surfaces with a damp cloth and dry.

The cooking surface should be lightly coated with a small amount of vegetable oil.

This can be applied with a paper towel. The oil will help protect the non-stick cooking surface. This should be done periodically to maintain the non-stick quality.

Find a dry, suitable, level surface near an electrical outlet.

Preheat the appliance by closing the lid and plugging into an electrical outlet.

When the power is on, the red power light will come on. The green ready light will stay off while the appliance is preheating.

While the appliance is preheating, you may prepare the ingredients for your homemade quesadilla.

When the appliance is hot and ready to cook your quesadilla, the green ready light will come on. NOTE: The appliance should preheat for a minimum of 3-7 minutes.

During this time, you may notice slight smoking or a slight odor; this is normal with most new appliances. The smoking and odor is caused by the residues burning off the cooking surface and the Heating element. Allow the appliance to preheat until

9. smoke and odor no longer exists.

Slide the drip tray under the front of the appliance.

10. Raise the quesadilla maker lid, always using the front handle to prevent accidental burns. For additional safety use an oven mitt or a potholder to open the lid.

11. Place a tortilla, centered, on the lower cooking surface.

12. Add desired ingredients evenly on top of the bottom tortilla. When all ingredients have been added, top with the second tortilla.

13. Close the lid using a potholder or oven mitt.

14. Lock the lid after lowering.

15. There are two locking positions for the Lid. Lock lid in position 1 for thinner quesadillas and position 2 for more thickly stuffed quesadillas.

16. Do not force the lid to lock.

17. NOTE: Steam may be released from appliance during cooking. For yoursafety, avoid contact with steam, as it is very hot and can cause burns.

18. The cooking time will range between 3-7 minutes, depending on the type of fillings, the amount of fillings and personal taste.

19. Do not overcook! This will cause the cheese and other food fillings used to melt excessively and run out of tortillas.

20. Once the quesadilla has completed cooking, raise the lid with a potholder or oven mitt. Remove the quesadilla from the cooking surface with a flat plastic or wooden utensil. Do not use metal utensils, as this may scratch and damage the non-stick cooking surface.

21. If cooking more than one quesadilla in a session, after removal of the first quesadilla, lower the Lid to maintain heat until ready to cook the next quesadilla.

22. After unplugging the appliance, make sure the red power light is off to prevent any sparking from the outlet.

23. Once the appliance is cool, remove the drip tray to empty and clean.

helpful tipS

• NEVER leave the unit unattended while operating.

Tortillas are recommended for use in your Quesadilla Maker. Make sure they are fresh tortillas, not old nor stale.

Make sure fillings are evenly distributed on the bottom tortilla to about 1/2 inch from the edge, so that the edges of the tortilla can seal together and ingredients stay inside of tortillas.

Use soft ingredients: shredded cheeses, prepared salsa, and thinly cut or shredded

• cooked meat, chicken and vegetables. Never use anything with bones nor pits included, nor anything uncooked such as raw meats, chicken, etc.

Avoid processed cheeses as they liquefy quickly and will drain out of the quesadilla.

Do not use more than 1/4 cup of shredded cheese or 1/2 cup of salsa, as they will leak out while cooking your quesadilla.

The average time for cooking a quesadilla, if not overfilled, is 3-7 minutes.

Crisping of the tortilla occurs while cooking, therefore, less time cooked = less crisping.

Longer cooking will create a crispier quesadilla. Do not overcook quesadilla.

Never force the Lid to lock, this could result in damage to the hinge of the Lid.

Always have the Drip Tray in place when cooking a quesadilla. Check the Drip Tray frequently during cooking sessions to prevent overflow.

Should melting occur that causes leakage of the tortillas, gently wipe up melted cheese, etc. from the non-stick cooking surface before cooking the next quesadilla.

This will prevent burning or scorching of previously melted cheeses, etc.

You can reheat previously cooked quesadillas by placing the quesadilla on the preheated unit, lining up the grill marks on the quesadilla with the plate pockets, lowering the lid, and reheating for 1-3 minutes.

Always allow the appliance to cool before removing the drip tray and wiping out the interior for cleaning.

To prevent overstuffing, make sure that you do not fill tortilla on lower plate past the inner rim: Make sure that lid is locked in correct position to ensure that tortillas seal properly.

cleaninG & maintenance

Please take care of your Quesadilla Maker by following these simple instructions and precautions. Cleaning is a snap.

Disconnect from the electrical outlet by unplugging the appliance.

Make sure the appliance is cool before removing the Drip Tray.

Empty the drip tray, then clean it in hot or warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry.

Wipe the non-stick cooking surface with a damp, nonabrasive cloth or paper towel and dry.

Wipe the exterior with a damp, non-abrasive cloth and dry.

Remember to periodically coat the cooking surface with vegetable oil to preserve the non-stick finish. This also helps the crisping process.
