5. Operating Instructions

Follow these steps to prepare a crispy sandwich using your microwave:

2. Load the Press: Open the sandwich maker press. Carefully place your prepared sandwich inside one half of the press.
3. Secure the Sandwich: Close the press and use the adaptable silicone strap to stabilize the sandwich, ensuring it is held firmly between the double-heating plates.
4. Microwave: Place the closed sandwich maker press into your microwave. The cooking time will vary depending on your microwave's wattage and desired crispness. Start with 1-2 minutes.
5. Rotate for Even Crispness: After the initial cooking time, carefully remove the hot press from the microwave (using oven mitts). Rotate the press halfway to ensure balanced crispness on both sides of the sandwich. Return to the microwave for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until desired crispness is achieved.
6. Serve: Once cooked, carefully open the press and remove your hot, crispy sandwich.
