MAINTENANCE & CLEANING
The outer frame and base:
Before cleaning your appliance, unplug it and let the iron cool down.
Clean the frame with a sponge dipped in warm water and liquid detergent.
Stubborn marks may be removed with a fit-to-purpose product.
Never use abrasive products or metallic brushes.
Never immerse the appliance in water or hold it under running water.
The drip trays:
These are in stainless steel and can be removed.
May be put into a dishwasher or hand-washed.
The baking grids:
After use, simply wipe the iron and baking grids with a moist cloth; do not
wash them.
NEVER
abruptly cool a heated iron ; this will result in permanent
unwarranted damage.
With time a film will form over the grids due to the repetitive baking process
and grease cycles. This film might cause for a flaky appearance of the
baking grids and can easily be removed using a metallic brush.
No harm can be done to the cast iron baking grids by metallic brushes.
Once the film is removed, redo all steps as described in the waffle iron
initialization process on page 3.
We advise you to periodically remove this film, preventing the baking grids
from becoming laden with grease.
