Place the appliance on a flat, heat resistant stable surface and ensure a minimum of 10cm free
space around the appliance. Do not operate your appliance inside a cabinet or directly under a wall
cabinet.
•
Plug the appliance into an electrical power outlet.
•
Note: Make sure the voltage indicated on the appliance matches the local voltage before
connecting the appliance to mains power. Rated voltage: 220-240V~ 50-60Hz.
•
Allow the appliance to heat up for approximately 5 minutes. Apply a thin coating of cooking oil to
the cooking plates and carefully rub it in with a paper towel. You only need to condition the
cooking plates when using your waffle maker for the first time.
•
WARNING! The cooking plates will get very hot.
•
NOTE: On first use there may be a small amount of haze / smoke and an odour emitted from the
appliance. This is perfectly normal and will subside after few minutes of use.
•
Unplug the appliance and now it is ready for use.
HOW TO USE YOUR WAFFLE MAKER
1.
Before using the appliance, clean the baking surfaces with a damp cloth. Dry it with paper towel.
2.
Close the appliance and plug it into a mains power outlet socket. Both red power light and green
working light will light up, indicating that the waffle maker is connected to the mains power and
begins heating. The red power indicator will remain on until you unplug the appliance.
3.
It will take approximately 3 minutes to reach the recommended baking temperature. The green
working light will go OFF when the waffle maker is ready for use.
4.
Open the appliance and brush the baking plates with a small amount of vegetable oil.
5.
Fill batter into the bottom baking plate. Ladle just enough batter to fill the lower grid so that the
peak area of the grid is covered.
6.
Close the appliance. The green working light will turn ON when another baking cycle begins. The
waffle will be ready in around 3 - 5 minutes.
7.
Open the appliance and check whether the waffle is sufficiently done. If you prefer a darker one,
continue baking until the desired colour is achieved. After toasting, open the appliance and remove
the waffle from the grid with a heat-proof synthetic or wooden utensil.
8.
If additional baking is required, close the waffle maker to retain heat. Wait until the green working
light goes OFF again before making more waffles.
9.
After using the waffle maker, disconnect the power plug from the mains power outlet socket.
NOTE:
Gently close the lid and ensure to lock the appliance with a click sound. Do not slam the lid down, as it
may cause the mixture to come out of the mould.
Do not open the appliance during the first 2 minutes after filling in the batter. It will cause splitting of
the under-baked waffle and make it difficult to remove.
WARNING!
1.
Never use sharp forks or knifes to remove the waffle as this would damage the non-stick coating
on the baking surface. Use only heat-resistant plastic or wood utensils only.
2.
Always unplug the appliance from the power outlet socket when not in use.
