Toasters and Sandwich Makers

To achieve a good result when preparing your toasted sandwich, it is essential to wait until the appliance heats up before you start toasting the bread. This means that the heat from the plates will immediately seal the ingredients inside the sandwich. The appliance is ready to use when the heating light goes out.

The best way to remove the sandwich from the plates is with a wooden or plastic utensil (for example, a spatula). Do not use metal, sharp, or abrasive kitchen utensils, as they may damage the plates.

In addition to preheating the sandwich maker, you can spread butter on the side of the bread that will be in direct contact with the plate. This will give you a more golden and crispy result.

Yes, you can use sliced bread, baguettes, wholemeal bread, seeded bread, or panini. For best results, avoid bread that is very thin or too soft.

If you are using your toaster for the first time, it is normal for it to emit some smoke. However, if this happens after you have used the appliance a few times, you should check whether there are any food remnants or any kind of grease inside it. If you have checked these aspects and it still emits smoke, you should contact an FLAMA Authorized Technical Assistance Service.

On some FLAMA models, the sandwich maker plates are not removable. See the features listed on each product page.

No. These appliances are intended only for preparing toasted sandwiches and should not be used as a grill.

To clean the sandwich maker, first unplug the appliance and let it cool completely. Next, remove excess grease from the plates with a piece of paper towel. Finally, you can clean them with a damp cloth or sponge. Never use metal, sharp, or abrasive kitchen utensils, as they may damage the plates.
