n
It may take a few seconds for the green light to switch off.
This is normal.
n
The green light runs on a thermostat and indicates when the
product is up to temperature. As part of the cooking cycle the
light will go on and off during this process. You will need to
assess if the waffle is cooked by lifting the lid.
n
When you are happy the waffle is cooked, remove it by gently
loosening the edges with a heat-proof plastic spatula. Never
use metal utensils, as they may damage the non-stick coating.
N.B.
The first time you use the appliance, it may have a slight
odour and may smoke a little. This is normal and common to
appliances with a non-stick surface.
Hints & Tips
Using the Waffle Maker
n
The Waffle Maker has been designed with a handle that locks
down to secure the contents when cooking.
n
Always preheat your Waffle Maker completely before using.
n
The lid of the Waffle Maker should be closed whilst preheating.
n
For evenly filled waffles, pour the batter onto the centre of
each grid and spread out evenly to the edges.
n
Do not overfill the plates, this may cause the batter to overflow.
n
Waffles are best served hot, immediately after cooking, but
baked waffles, may be kept warm in a low oven. Do not wrap
in foil as they may loose their crispiness.
n
Baked waffles may be frozen. Allow to cool completely, place
in plastic food bag. Use baking parchment to keep the waffles
separated and freeze. Reheat in a toaster or under a grill.
n
For added flavour, serve your waffles with fruit syrups, warmed
fruit compote, fresh berries, chopped fruit or yogurt.
n
For sweeter waffles serve with a dusting of icing sugar,
whipped cream, ice cream or chocolate sauce.
