5. Safety instructions
To avoid potentially fatal electric
shocks:
1. Intended Use
• Ensure that the appliance never comes into con-
tact with water when the plug is inserted into a
mains power socket, especially if it is being used
in the kitchen or close to sources of water.
• Ensure that the power cable never gets wet or
moist when the appliance is in use. Place the
power cable such that it cannot be squashed or
damaged in other ways.
This appliance is intended for baking waffles for
household use. It is not intended for the preparation
of other foods nor for commercial or industrial pur-
poses.
2. Technical data
• Arrange for defective power plugs and/or cables
to be replaced at once by qualified technicians
or our Customer Service Department.
Voltage :
Power consumption :1200 W
220-240 V / 50 Hz
~
• Always pull the plug out of the power socket after
use. Simply switching the appliance off is not suf-
ficient, as it remains under power for as long as
the plug is inserted into the power socket.
• Do not use an external timing switch or a separate
remote control system to operate the appliance.
3. Items supplied
• Waffle iron
• Operating manual
• Recipe book
To avoid the risks of fire or injury:
• Parts of the appliance will become hot during
operation; you should hold the appliance only
by the grip. The control knob can also become
hot after a certain amount of operation – for this
reason, it is best to wear oven mitts.
• Baked foods can burn! Therefore, never place
the appliance under flammable objects, especially
flammable curtains.

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
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.

(1 - 4). The further you turn the control knob
q
to the right, the darker the waffles will be after
baking.
First clean the appliance as described chapter 8.
Note:
Turn the control knob
to at least position 1.
q
Lightly grease the baking surfaces with butter,
margarine or oil that is suitable for baking.
The three dots before position 1 do not have a
baking function.
Heat the appliance briefly to the maximum tempera-
ture (Position 4) with the lid closed.
2. As soon as the green operating lamp goes out,
w
the appliance has reached its preset temperature!
Note:
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.
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
to the right.

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.
