9 FEATURES & FUNCTIONS A. Flatbread Maker Base- The Base for the Flatbread Maker holds the oversized Nonstick Baking Plate and the Base Heating Element. The Plate gets hot almost immediately in response to the Heating Element, offering a super-fast preheating time. The Base also holds the Temperature Control Dial that can easily be adjusted up to 465 F for a full range of temperature settings to suit your every baking need. B. Vented Dome Lid with CoolTouch Handle- The Vented Dome Lid holds the second of two Heating Elements, which creates super-crisp exteriors on your flatbreads by directly heating the top of the bread. It can be easily opened by using the CoolTouch Handle. The Domed Lid contains vents for steam to escape; avoid standing near the steam while operating the Flatbread Maker. C. Nonstick Baking Plate- The generous 12-inch nonstick Baking Plate easily holds thin, unleavened flatbreads and a variety of other baked goods. Because the surface is nonstick, use only heat-resistant plastic or wooden utensils to avoid marring the surface. FEATURES & FUNCTIONS Before first use, condition the Plate by coating lightly with a layer of vegetable shortening. Following that treatment, always lightly coat the Baking Plate with cooking spray before adding food to the Plate. If, over time, foods begin to stick, re-condition with a second application of vegetable shortening. D. Easy Temperature Control Dial- With the ease of the Control Dial, you can quickly set the temperature for your baked goods by turning the Dial to the heat setting you prefer. Allow the Flatbread Maker to preheat for 10 minutes before adding foods to bake. 9
