Baking waffles
1. Close the plates. Then connect the appliance to the mains power supply. (If necessary, the batter
collection tray can be laid on the base to catch any dripping batter.)
•Note: It may be necessary to slightly grease the plates with cooking oil before baking
depending on the foodstuff.
2. Turning on: Set the power switch to Iposition.
3. Set the thermostat to the desired temperature. The HEAT indicator light turns on.
4. When the set temperature is reached, the HEAT indicator light turns Off. (Note: During use, the
HEAT indicator light keeps on and off, indicating the set temperature is being kept.)
5. Lift the upper plate and pour the waffle batter on the bottom plate. Then close the upper plate.
6. Turn the both plates clockwise 180 degrees using the handles until locked into place again. This
ensures even spreading of the batter on both plates.
7. Set the timer dial to the desired baking time.
8. When the cooking time expires, the appliance gives an audible beep.
9. Turn the appliance to its original position and lift the upper plate. Remove the baked waffles with a
heat-proof wooden/plastic spatula.
10. After use: Set the thermostat to MIN and power switch to O. Then disconnect from the power
supply.
Tips for baking waffles
• Do not pour too much batter as excess batter might drip out of the plates during baking.
• Ideal baking time depends on many factors, like batter amount, batter thickness, ingredients, etc.
• Browning level also depends on many factors, like batter ingredients, baking time, room temperature,
etc. Sugary batter, for example, will turn brownish faster.
• Avoid opening the plate repeatedly during baking, otherwise the waffles may stick on the plates or
not bake at all.
Overheating protection
This appliance is featured with an overheat protection. Should the temperature exceed safe levels the
appliance will automatically cut off power.

difficult to remove. To prevent this, follow the cleaning steps below:
•Always turn OFF the appliance and disconnect from the power supply before cleaning.
• Allow the appliance to cool before cleaning, but for best results clean the plates when they are still
slightly warm.

• Take care when using scrapers to remove cooking residues as they can damage the cooking surface.
• Dry thoroughly after cleaning.
Warning: Do not use steel wool as it may leave shards that could Contaminate food.
