ENG CORD Examine the power cord carefully before using it. If it is damaged, you must not use the unit. The cord should only be replaced by

, its after-sale service department or a qualified person approved by in order to avoid danger for the user. The cord used is a H05RR-F 3G 0.75mm². These units are in compliance with directives 2006/95/CE, 2004/108/ CE, DEEE 2002/96/CE, RoHs 2002/95/CE and the CE food contact regulation 1935/2004.

FIRST USE ENVIRONMENT

**Unroll the cord completely.

**Plug the appliance in. **The green light comes on and the ready signal sounds to indicate when the ideal cooking temperature has been reached. You may then grease the plates and begin cooking (see Cooking Tips).

**We recommend cleaning the cooking plates before the first use with a little hot water and a sponge. Dry thoroughly.

**A new appliance may smoke slightly when used for the first time. To reduce the chance of smoking, heat the appliance for 10 minutes and then let cool for approximately half an hour.

DAILY OPERATION Protection of the environment – DIRECTIVE 2002/96/CE In order to protect our environment and our health, electrical units at the end of their working lives must be disposed of according to very specific rules requiring the involvement of everyone, both suppliers and users.

That is why your unit, as indicated by the symbol on its nameplate, must not be put into a public or private garbage can intended for household wastes. At the time of its disposal, it is your responsibility to bring your unit to a public collection center designated for the recycling of electrical and electronic equipment. If you need information about centers for the collection and recycling of discarded units, please contact the local authorities in your region, the household waste collection services or the store where you bought your unit.

**To turn off the appliance, unplug the cord.

**Unplug the appliance. **Allow it to cool completely. **Press the plate eject buttons immediately next to the plates. **Remove the plates and insert new plates.

**Use the control panel for precise control over browning of your waffles. Use the dial to adjust the waffle iron temperature and control browning precisely. Adjust the selection control to modify cooking time:

- Faster cooking for softer waffles (seared to keep them soft and chewy on the inside and crispy on the outside) - Slower cooking for extra-crispy waffles (heated longer to remove all moisture from the inside and make them crispy through and through). **Pour the batter onto only one plate taking care to cover all squares completely. Note that it is much easier to use a jug with spout for this instead of a ladle. **Close the lid, wait 3 to 4 seconds and then rotate the head. **After 2 more minutes, rotate the head back to its starting position. IMPORTANT: The rotation process is important for making the best waffles. If you do not do this, your waffles will look less appetizing (squares on top tray not filled in completely, light spots on waffle making the surface irregular). Even with rotation, this may happen also if you do not use enough batter. However, be careful as the appliance may release steam during turning. We recommend using a potholder or mitt when rotating. **The green light will come on and the appliance will emit four short tones when it is time to open the lid. IMPORTANT: Cooking waffles is a subtle art in which the slightest change in ingredient proportions in the dough can affect appearance and flavour significantly. The timing of the green ready light was calculated based on a standard waffle dough recipe and the opinions of a representative consumer panel. Differences in timing due to your own particular preferences are not to be considered a defect of the appliance.

**Always unplug appliance and allow to cool completely before cleaning. **Never submerse the appliance in water. **Never use oven cleaners or other stripping products. **Lid and base: clean with a damp sponge and, if necessary, mild detergent. **Non-stick cooking plates: Generally soak for a few minutes, clean using a soft sponge and mild detergent and then rinse with warm water. Dry the plates thoroughly before placing them back into the appliance.

Never grease the appliance before pre-heating but instead just before pouring in the batter. **Heat the appliance until the green light comes on and the ready signal sounds. **Although plates in the appliance have non-stick coating, we recommend greasing them lightly. **Open the appliance and grease both plates using a silicone brush, paper towel or piece of cotton. (If using a brush, dip it into a small cup of cooking oil to cover it well.) Grease again only lightly before cooking the next waffles. After that, grease again only if the waffles start to stick on opening the lid.

**Remove the waffles by piercing each one with a sharp-tipped knife and lifting away gently from the cooking plate.

**Spread about a tablespoon (or four smaller spoonfuls if four moulds) of thick batter on the lower plate.

**Close the lid and squeeze the handles for a few moments to help distribute the batter evenly. Close the locking mechanism securely. Note: This mechanism may be left attached to the appliance. Position it to the left or right depending on whether you are right or left-handed.

**Waffle top and bottom coming apart: removing too quickly from mould.

**Waffles breaking apart: batter too watery or too dry (not enough fat). **Waffles burning: cooking too long or forgetting about waffles! **Waffles burnt on one side, uncooked on the other: filled improperly or batter too watery or appliance not rotated. **Waffles sticking to moulds: plates greased incorrectly or plates too hot for first waffles or too much sugar or not enough fat in the batter. 1.2

What to do in the event of problems

**Do not turn over the iron as for waffles.

**The green indicator light will go out after about 10 seconds. **When the green light comes on again, you may open the iron. Keep in mind that the timing of the green light was configured for cooking waffles. Ideal cooking time may vary depending on the recipe. In this case, you may check before the green light comes on to see whether cooking is complete by opening the lid; if your mini-waffles, etc., are ready, then remove them from the appliance and continue the cooking cycle ignoring the green light. **If your mini-waffles appear to be stuck to both plates, do not open the lid any further; if you hold it in its current position for a few moments, the mini-waffles should come away from the top plate under their own weight. If they do not, insert a spatula and carefully tease the mini-waffles away from the plate. **The mini-waffles may appear soft, but they become firm very quickly. If you want to roll them up, you may do so using a dowel

**Unplug the appliance. **Allow to cool, remove the plates and soak for 5 minutes, brush the plates with a nylon or other plastic dish brush. Dry the plates thoroughly, insert them again, plug the appliance back in and follow the cooking instructions carefully from the start. **Apply grease repeatedly if cooking many waffles. We guarantee beautiful waffles if you follow the provided instructions closely. 2.

MINI-WAFFLES, BRICELETS AND DRY WAFFLES

**We recommend starting with positions 2.5 and ‘moelleux’ (‘soft’).

**Heat the appliance until the green light comes on. **Grease the plates just before pouring the batter.

stick directly on the cooking plate. To roll up the miniwaffles, place the dowel on a mini-waffle, lift up one edge of the waffle, roll it up quickly and then remove the dowel.

**You may also roll them up into cones to eat as they are, filled with a frozen dessert or folded into triangles, halves or quarters. **Note that unlike waffles, mini-waffles or wafers are generally served entirely cold. They may also be stored for several days in a biscuit tin. 3.

**When the green light comes on and the ready signal sounds, you may remove the toasted sandwich.

**Paninis are quick and easy to make. Where possible, prepare all ingredients before heating the appliance.

**We recommend starting with positions 2.5 and 'moelleux' ('soft'). **Make paninis with 'special panini' bread or pieces of precooked baguettes about 20cm long. For the panini fillings, use your imagination: thinly-sliced tomatoes, cured ham, basil, mozzarella, etc. Be careful not to overstuff your paninis and make sure that the bread does not go beyond the width of the plates. **Put two paninis in the unit. **Close the unit by tightening it gently and progressively. Install the closing clip and use it to lock the unit. This is important so that the bread is properly flattened and your paninis are properly cooked and marked. Note: This mechanism may be left attached to the appliance. Position it to the left or right depending on whether you are right or left-handed.

**Toasted sandwiches are quick and easy to make. Where possible, prepare all ingredients before heating the appliance.

**We recommend starting with positions 2.5 and 'moelleux' ('soft'). **Heat the appliance until the green light comes on. **The two outside faces of the sandwich coming into contact with the plates should be lightly buttered. **Place two sandwiches in the appliance. **Close the lid slowly and gently. Close the locking mechanism securely. Note: This mechanism may be left attached to the appliance. Position it to the left or right depending on whether you are right or left-handed.

**Do not turn over the iron as for waffles.

**As soon as the green light goes on and your hear the signal, you can remove the paninis.

**Do not turn over the iron as for waffles.

RECIPES COOKING MEAT

**We recommend starting with positions 2 and 'moelleux' ('soft').

**Heat the appliance until the green light comes on. **Use only steaks, filets, rib steaks..., do not cook meat on the bone such as chops, rib of beef… **Put the meat in the unit. **Do not use the tightening clip as this could crush the meat if it is thick. **Monitor the cooking and take out the meat when it is cooked to your taste.

To begin, here is some advice on the ingredients to use, according to your preferences…

**For soft waffles, use milk and cream. These waffles must be eaten as soon as they are removed from the mould. **For light, crunchy waffles use water and beer. **Be they soft or crunchy, it is important to use yeast. (Use 10g of yeast per 500g of flour – leave the batter to stand for 30 to 60 minutes). Using baker’s yeast gives better quality waffles but requires the batter to stand for around 2 hours. WARNING: when standing, batter made with baker’s yeast can expand to several times its initial volume… So make sure you use a big enough container!

500g of flour – 200g of finely chopped ham – a pinch of salt – 3 or

4 eggs – 1 sachet of baking powder – 125g of butter – ¾ L of liquid (water, milk and, if you wish, a glass of dry white wine).

500g of flour – 1 sachet of baking powder – ¾ L of liquid (water, beer or milk, its your choice!) – a pinch of salt – 125g of butter –

30g of sugar – 2 sachets of vanilla sugar – vanilla essence, kirsch or rum – 3 or 4 eggs.

Pour the flour into a terrine dish. Add the salt and egg yokes.

Beat with a whisk together with the water (having dissolved the baking powder in the water) and white wine. Add the melted butter. Beat once more. Add the finely chopped ham. Then fold in the egg whites, having beaten them stiff. Leave to stand for ½ and hour. Eat the waffles immediately after cooking.

Melt the butter and allow to cool slightly. Pour the flour into a mixing bowl. Add the salt, sugar and eggs. Beat with a whisk.

In a bowl, dissolve the baking powder in the liquid. Pour this mixture into the mixing bowl together with the melted butter. Flavour according to taste. Beat until the batter is completely uniform. Leave to stand for 30 minutes. Eat the waffles when still warm, sprinkled with icing sugar or with jam, honey, chestnut purée, chocolate, Chantilly cream, maple syrup, ice cream, fresh fruit, etc.

(or bricelets or dry waffles) The results are always better when using ordinary flour rather than cake flour.

WAFFLES WITH CREME FRAICHE

500g of flour – 150g of butter – 10g of baking powder – ¼ L of water – ¼ L of crème fraîche – 4 eggs – a pinch of salt.

BRICELETS DE DIVONNE

4 eggs – 200g of sugar – 250g of melted butter – the zest from 2 lemons – 250g of flour – a pinch of salt.

Pour the flour, salt and egg yokes into a mixing bowl. In a bowl, dissolve the baking powder in the liquid. Pour this mixture into the mixing bowl and beat with a whisk until you obtain a uniform batter.

Add the melted butter, cream, and egg whites, having beaten them stiff. Leave to stand for ½ an hour at room temperature. Eat the waffles when still warm, sprinkled with icing sugar.

Beat the eggs, then add the sugar, melted butter, lemon zests, salt and sifted flour. The batter will be runny. Leave to stand for

24 hours in a cool place. Place a quantity of batter the size of a walnut on the plate.

ENG TOASTED SANDWICHES PANINI Always put a pat of butter at the exterior of each slice of bread.

NEAPOLITAN PANINI Fill your 'special panini' bread with slices of tomato, fresh basil leaves, and then slices of mozzarella. Add a dash of olive oil. Close the panini and grill it for a few minutes.

Gruyere, Chester or any other type of cheese you can grate. Beat the following in a saucepan:

30g of butter – 30g of flour – ¼ litre of milk – 2 egg yokes.

CHEESE PANINI Fill your 'special panini' bread with mozzarella and gorgonzola.

Close the panini and grill it for a few minutes. N.B. For a Savoyard panini, replace the mozzarella and gorgonzola with raclette cheese or Reblochon.

Mix and gradually add 50g of grated cheese. Add seasoning and spread the batter on slices of French bread or white loaf (1cm thick).

CROQUE-MONSIEUR Garnish a slice of bread with grated gruyere. Place a slice of ham on top of the gruyere. Cover with more gruyere and place the second slice of bread on top.

CURED HAM/PARMESAN PANINI Fill your 'special panini' bread with a slice of cured ham and mozzarella.

Add a few leaves of rocket and shavings of parmesan. Close the panini and grill it for a few minutes.

Make a hollow in the first slice of bread with the back of a spoon, break an egg into it and add seasoning (salt and pepper). With the spoon, make a similar hollow in the other slice of bread and place it on top of the egg.
