Frequently Asked Questions - Tradition BSWA-516 WILFA

How do I preheat the waffle iron?

Plug in the appliance and close the lid. The red indicator light will turn on. Wait until the light turns green (about 4 minutes), then the waffle iron is ready.

What should I do if the waffle sticks to the upper plate?

Use a plastic or wooden spatula to gently remove the waffle. Never use metal utensils as they may damage the non-stick coating.

Can I use cooking spray in the waffle iron?

No, the use of cooking spray is not recommended. Instead, season the plates with a little oil before first use.

How do I adjust the browning level of the waffles?

Slide the thermostat control: to the left (down) for lighter waffles, to the right (up) for darker waffles.

What should I do if the lid does not open easily?

Let the waffle bake a little longer and then try to lift the cover again. Do not force it open.

How do I clean the waffle iron?

Unplug and let it cool. Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth. Clean the baking plates with kitchen paper after cooling. Do not immerse in water or use abrasive cleaners.

Is the waffle iron safe to use with an extension cord?

Yes, but use a cord with a rating at least equal to the appliance's rating (1200 W) and position it so it does not drape over the counter or cause a tripping hazard.

Wilfa offers a 5-year guarantee from the date of purchase, covering manufacturing defects. Keep your receipt as proof.

• Do not use the appliance for anything other than its intended purpose.

- This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved. Children shall not play with the appliance.

- Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children unless they are older than 8 and supervised. Keep the appliance and its cord out of reach of children less than 8 years.

- This appliance is intended for household use only.

- Insert the plug into an earthed electrical socket. Ensure that the voltage that should be used corresponds to the voltage specified on the appliance.

- The surface may be hot.

- If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.

- The appliance is not intended to be operated by means of an external timer or separate remote-control system.

This appliance comes with a short power cord in order to reduce risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. An extension lead may be used with care, and the marked electrical rating must be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance. The extension lead must be positioned so that it will not drape over the counter or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children, or cause a tripping hazard. The electrical rating of this appliance is stated on the base plate of the unit.

FIRST TIME USE

Before using the appliance for the first time, clean the baking plates with a damp cloth. We recommend that you season the baking plates with a little oil the first time you use the appliance. You do not need to repeat this later. The first two waffles should not be eaten. The use of cooking spray in the waffle iron is not recommended.

HOW TO MAKE WAFFLES

1. Close the waffle iron and prepare the batter while the waffle iron heats up.
2. The indicator light around the thermostat button is red. When the indicator light turns green (after about 4 minutes), the waffle iron is ready for baking.
3. Open the waffle iron and pour the batter into the middle of each of the lower baking plates. Use the scoop provided to ensure that you have the correct amount of batter. Close the appliance carefully. Do not force it together. Steam may be emitted between the baking plates.
4. When the green indicator light goes out, a red light comes on. After several minutes, the green light comes on again, indicating that the waffles are ready.
5. If you think the waffles are too dark or too light, adjust the thermostat.

NB!

• Ensure that your fingers do not come into contact with the baking plates.
• During baking, the red light will switch on and off and the thermostat will keep the waffle iron at the appropriate temperature.
• Waffles are cooked in about 3 minutes or longer, depending on your personal taste. When the waffles are ready, open the waffle iron and remove the waffle with a plastic or wooden spatula. Never use a metal knife, as this may damage the non-stick coating.
• The appliance must be kept closed between baking.
  • After use, pull the plug out of the socket.

USEFUL TIPS

• Always pre-heat the waffle iron before baking. First insert the plug, and then prepare the batter while the waffle iron heats up
• If you want light-coloured waffles, slide the thermostat down (to the left). If you prefer darker waffles, slide the thermostat up (to the right)..

• If the cover does not open easily, leave the waffle to bake for a little longer and then try to lift the cover again.

• If the waffle sticks to the upper baking plate, remove it using a plastic or wooden spatula.

• To avoid burning your mouth, allow the waffle to cool slightly on a wire rack before eating.
  • Garnish baked waffles with fruit or ice cream to create your own specialities.

CLEANING

• Always pull out the plug before cleaning and allow the appliance to cool down.
• Do not immerse the appliance in water or hold it under running water.
• Wipe the upper surface of the waffle iron with a slightly damp cloth.
• Use kitchen paper or another suitable cloth to clean the baking plates after they have cooled down.
• Never use sharp or pointed objects or abrasive powder to clean.
