- To heat bread, switch the button to the "II" position.
- Press two rolls or baguette pieces onto the bread spikes to warm them. Be aware that the spikes become very hot, posing a burn risk.
- Once cooking is complete, carefully remove the lid and take out the sausages using a fork.
- Slide the hot sausage into the warmed bread and add condiments like mustard or ketchup as desired.
- After use, switch the button to the OFF position and unplug the hot dog machine.
Maintenance Features
Cleaning and Storage:
