Operation
∙ Close the lids.
∙ Plug in the appliance. The red indicator
light comes on.
∙ Turn the thermostat control to its
maximum setting.
∙ Preheat the waffl e iron for about eight
minutes. It is then ready for use.
∙ Once the pre-set temperature is reached,
the green ready-light comes on.
∙ Open the two lids.
∙ Before use, the non-stick plates should
be lightly greased with a small amount of
oil or fat that is specifi cally intended for
frying and may be safely heated to high
temperatures.
∙ Put the required amount of dough on the
middle of each of the lower plates.
∙ Close the upper lid and press down gently
to help spread the dough evenly.
∙ The baking time is in general 2 - 3
minutes, depending on the nature
of the dough as well as the selected
temperature.
∙ Shortly after the dough is put in the waffl e
iron, the green ready-light goes out. It will
come on again once the baking process
is fi nished, when the waffl es can be
removed.
∙ When taking the waffl es off the plates, do
not use any sharp or pointed objects likely
to damage the non-stick coating.
∙ Check the level of browning. Should the
waffl e be too light or too dark, adjust the
temperature control or baking time.
∙ Place fresh dough into the waffl e iron
immediately after removing the waffl e.
∙ After use, remove the plug from the wall
socket and allow the appliance to cool
down with its cooking plates open.
Practical hints
∙ In order to maintain the crispness of the
waffl es, place them next to each other
on a rack to cool. (Placed on top of each
other, the waffl es will lose their crispness).
∙ If milk is used instead of water, the waffl es
will be softer and darker.
∙ In order to achieve even browning,
all ingredients should be of the same
temperature.
General care and cleaning
∙ Before cleaning, remove the plug from the
wall socket and wait until the appliance
has cooled down with the cooking plates
open.
∙ To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not
clean the appliance with water and do not
immerse it in water.
∙ Do not use abrasives or harsh cleaning
solutions.
∙ Clean the outside of the appliance with a
soft, slightly damp cloth only.
∙ The non-stick plates can be cleaned
with a soft damp cloth, a soft brush or a
sponge.
