5. Safety Instructions 

To avoid life-threatening electric
shocks:

• Make certain that the appliance never
comes into contact with water as long
as the power plug is in the socket.
In particular, when you use it in the
kitchen near the sink.

• Make sure that the power cable
never gets wet or moist when the
toaster is in use. Lay the cord such
that it cannot be pinched or otherwi­se damaged. If the power cord or the
power plug become damaged, have
them replaced by customer service
before using the appliance again.

• Always pull the plug out of the power
socket after use. Switching off the
device is not sufficient because the
device receives power as long as the
power plug is connected to the socket.

To prevent fire hazards and the risk of
injury:

• Parts of the appliance can become hot
during operation; you should only
ever use the grip to hold the appliance.
The control knob can also become hot
after a certain amount of operation –
for this reason, it is best to wear oven
mitts.

• Bread can catch fire! Therefore, never
put the appliance under flammable
objects, especially flammable curtains.

• Never leave the appliance unattended
when it is in use.

• Do not allow children and the elderly
to handle heat-generating household
appliances without supervision – they
may not properly appreciate the
associated dangers.

• Very hot steam can escape when ope­ning the lid. It is best to always wear
oven mitts while opening the appliance.

6. Preparing the waffle iron

Before starting up the appliance, make
certain that ...
the appliance, power plug and power
cord are in proper condition and ...
all packaging materials have been
removed from the appliance.

First clean the appliance as described
under 8.

Then grease the baking surfaces lightly
with butter, margarine or oil that is
suitable for baking.

Heat the appliance breifly to the maxi­mum temperature with the lid closed:

 To do this, plug the power plug into

the socket and turn the control knob
all the way to the right.

 The red operating light turns on as

long as the power plug is in the socket.
The green operating light turns on as
long as the appliance is heating
up – when it turns off, the appliance
has finished heating.

• Now pull out the power plug again
and let the appliance cool down with
the lid open.

Clean the appliance again as described
under 8. The waffle iron is now ready
for use.

7. Baking waffles

If you have prepared a batter for the
waffle iron according to your recipe
book:

 Heat the appliance with the lid closed.

To do this, insert the power plug into
the socket and turn the control knob
to roughly the centre.

 As soon as the green operating light

goes out, the appliance is hot!

• Grease the hot baking surfaces lightly
with butter, margarine or oil that is
suitable for baking.

• Then spread the batter evenly across
the bottom baking surface. 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. The degree of browning can
be determined by adjusting the con­trol knob or altering 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 accidentally damage the coa­ting of the baking surfaces. Otherwise
it will be harder to separate the waffles
from the surfaces.

• After baking the last waffle, pull the
power plug out of the socket and
allow the appliance to cool with the
lid up.

8. Cleaning and care

Never open the casing of the appliance.
There are no operating elements inside.
When the casing is open, there is a risk
of life-threatening electrical shock.

Before cleaning the device, ....

• First pull the power plug out of the
power socket and let the device cool
off completely.

• The parts of the appliance may never
be submerged in water or other
liquids! There could be potential
hazard of life-threatening electric
shock, if moisture enters the voltage
conducting parts upon operating the
appliance again.

• Clean the baking surfaces after using
initially with a dry paper towel to
soak up the grease residue.

• Then clean all surfaces and the power
cord with a slightly damp wash cloth.
Always dry the appliance well before
using it again.

• Do not use any cleansers or solvents.
This can damage the appliance or
leave residues that could be incorpo­rated into the next waffles.

In case of stubborn residues:

• Never make use of hard objects. This
could damage the coating of the waffle
surfaces.

• It is better to lay a wet wash cloth on
the encrusted residue in order to
soften it.

9. Storage

Let the appliance cool off completely
before storing it. Wind the power cord
around the holder under the bottom of
the appliance. Store the appliance in a
dry location.

10. Disposal

Never through the appliance
into normal household trash.

Dispose of the waffle iron through a
certified disposal company or your com­munity disposal centre. Observe the cur­rently applicable regulations. In case of
doubt, please contact your waste dispo­sal centre.

11. Warranty & Service

The warranty conditions and the service
address can be found on the warranty
