or any other liquids.

labels. You may wish to keep the packaging for future use.

HOW TO USE YOUR CREPE MAKER

WARNING: The surface of your Crepe Maker will become hot, so exercise caution

.

IMPORTANT! DO NOT use metal utensils to spread the batter, this will damage the non­stick cooking surface. Always use the spreader and spatula supplied with the product.

1. Plug the appliance into the wall socket. The red power light and the Green working indicator
will light up on standby mode. Set the control dial to the desired cooking temperature setting
from light to dark. The red lamp will be ON constantly. The green lamp will light up when the
appliance has stopped heating (when it reaches the desired temperature or when it is on standby
mode).

2. Preheat the unit on either light or dark setting. Once the cooking plate is at the correct
temperature for your recipe and the batter has been prepared, you can start making crepes or
pancakes.

3. Spray a little oil onto the cooking plate. When making pancakes, spoon the batter onto the

cooking plate. You will be able to cook up to 4 small pancakes at a time. Take care as the batter
will spread. Flip them over after about 1 minute and start cooking the other side.

4. To cook crepes, heat the unit with low heat and use a spoon to pour a thin layer of batter onto
the cooking plate. Use the batter spreader to spread the batter evenly in a circle over the cooking

plate. When you have made a large circle, turn the control dial up to continue cooking.

Spreading the batter on a low heat helps the crepe not to tear.

5. The crepe will be covered with little bubbles after 2 minutes. Loosen the edges with the

wooden spatula and flip the crepe over. The second side will cook quicker. When it is golden
brown, remove the crepe from the cooking plate. Repeat if you wish to make more crepes. You

can keep crepes warm by placing them in an oven on a low heat setting and cover with
greaseproof paper in between layers.

6. Switch OFF and remove the plug from the plug socket once you have finished.

CAUTION: Coming in contact with hot surfaces can cause severe scalding. Never leave the
appliance unattended during use. Adult supervision required when used by or near young
children.



To remove any stubborn residues, pour a small amount of cooking oil onto the hardened batter.
Allow to set for 5 minutes, and then wipe the softened batter off with a soft cloth.
