• Very hot steam clouds can escape when ope-
ning the lid. It is thus best to wear oven mitts
when opening the appliance.
6. Preparing the waffle iron
Before taking the appliance into use check to ensure
that the appliance, the power plug and the power
cable are all in a serviceable condition and that all
packaging materials have been removed.
First clean the appliance as described chapter 8.
Lightly grease the baking surfaces with butter,
margarine or oil that is suitable for baking.
Heat the appliance briefly to the maximum tempera-
ture (Position 4) with the lid closed.
Note:
On this first use the development of a light odour
may occur, caused by production residues (a slight
smoke development is also possible). This is normal
and stops after a short time. Provide for sufficient
ventilation. Open a window, for example.
1. To do this, insert the plug into a mains power
socket and turn the control knob
q
all the way
to the right.
2. The red operating lamp
w
glows all the time
when the plug is connected to a mains power
socket. The green operating lamp
w
glows for
as long as the appliance is heating up – when it
goes out, the appliance has reached its preset
temperature.
• Remove the power plug and, with the lid open,
allow the appliance to cool down .
Clean the appliance again as described under 8.
The waffle iron is now ready for use.
7. Baking waffles
When you have prepared a batter for the waffle
iron according to your recipe book:
1. Heat the appliance with the lid closed. To do this,
insert the plug into a mains power socket and
turn to control knob
q
to the required position
(1 - 4). The further you turn the control knob
q
to the right, the darker the waffles will be after
baking.
Note:
Turn the control knob
q
to at least position 1.
The three dots before position 1 do not have a
baking function.
2. As soon as the green operating lamp
w
goes out,
the appliance has reached its preset temperature!
Grease the hot baking surfaces lightly with butter,
margarine or oil that is suitable for baking.
• Spread the batter evenly across the bottom baking
surface. To determine the correct amount of batter,
fill it with batter until the batter lightly touches the
edge of the baking area. If necessary, increase
the amount of batter used in the next waffle.
Make certain that the batter does not run over
the edge of the baking surface. Now close the
lid.
• After no less than 1 minute, you can open the lid
to check the baking result. Opening the lid early
will only tear the waffle.
• The waffles are finished after about 3 minutes.
You can determine the level of browning either
by adjustment of the control knob
q
or by means
of the baking time. In this way, the waffles can
be baked to a golden yellow or a crispy brown.
• When removing the waffles, be sure not to ac-
cidentally damage the coating of the baking sur-
faces. If you do, it will be harder to separate the
waffles from the surfaces.
