Frequently Asked Questions - RCWM-02-E Royal Catering

How to use my Royal Catering RCWM-02-E waffle maker for the first time?

Before first use, clean the plates with a damp cloth and dry them. Plug in the appliance, set the thermostat to the desired temperature (usually 200°C) and wait for the light to go out. Pour the batter, close the lid and let cook for 3 to 5 minutes.

What type of batter to use for crispy waffles?

For crispy waffles, use a batter made with flour, eggs, melted butter and sugar. Let the batter rest for 30 minutes in the refrigerator before cooking. A high temperature (200-220°C) gives a better crispiness.

How to clean the waffle maker plates?

Unplug the appliance and let it cool down. The plates are removable: remove them and wash them in hot soapy water with a non-abrasive sponge. Do not put them in the dishwasher. Dry completely before reinserting.

What to do if the waffle maker does not heat up?

Check that the appliance is properly plugged in and that the thermostat is not on the minimum position. If the indicator light does not come on, the thermal fuse may have blown. Contact customer service for a replacement.

Does the non-stick coating wear out over time?

Yes, with intensive use, the non-stick coating may wear out. Avoid using metal utensils and prefer wood or silicone. If scratches appear, it is advisable to replace the plates.

Can I prepare other foods than waffles?

This waffle maker is designed only for waffles. Using other foods (brownie batter, eggs) may damage the coating and is not recommended.

How to set the temperature for soft waffles?

For soft waffles, set the thermostat between 160°C and 180°C. Longer cooking at moderate temperature gives a tender interior and slightly golden exterior.

What to do if the batter sticks to the plates?

Make sure the plates are non-stick and lightly oiled before each use. If the batter sticks, check that the temperature is high enough (at least 180°C) and that the batter is not too liquid.

The waffle maker gives off a burnt smell on first use, is that normal?

Yes, during the first use, manufacturing residues may emit an odor. Let the appliance heat empty for 10 minutes in a ventilated area. The odor will disappear after a few uses.

Where can I buy spare parts?

Spare parts (plates, thermostats, handles) are available on the Royal Catering manufacturer website or from authorized dealers. Check the manual for exact references.

2.1. Electrical safety

a) The plug must fit the socket. Do not modify the plug in any way. Using original plugs and matching sockets reduces the risk of electric shock. b) Avoid touching earthed elements such as pipes, heaters, boilers and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if the earthed device is exposed to rain, comes into direct contact with a wet surface or is operating in a damp environment. Water getting into the device increases the risk of damage to the device and of electric shock. c) Do not touch the device with wet or damp hands. d) Use the cable only for its designated use. Never use it to carry the device or to pull the plug out of a socket. Keep the cable away from heat sources, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or tangled cables increase the risk of electric shock. e) If using the device in a damp environment cannot be avoided, a residual current device (RCD) should be applied. The use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock. f) Do not use the device if the power cord is damaged or shows obvious signs of wear. A damaged power cord should be replaced by a qualified electrician or the manufacturer's service centre. g) ATTENTION! DANGER TO LIFE! While cleaning, never immerse the device in water or other liquids. h) When the device is no longer used, switch it off and pull the plug out of the socket.
