Do not install the appliance in a hot, ■ wet or very humid environment.
Select a location that does not allow ■ children to reach the hot surfaces of the appliance.
■The mains socket must be easily accessible so that the plug can be quickly pulled out in an emergency.
Electrical connection
For safe and trouble-free operation of the appliance, the following instructions on the electrical connection must be observed:
Before connecting the appliance, ■ compare the connection data (voltage and frequency) on the rating plate with those of your mains power supply. The data must correspond in order to avoid damage to the appliance. If in doubt, ask your electrical appliance retailer.
The mains socket must be protected by at least a 10 A automatic circuit breaker.
Ensure that the connecting cable is undamaged and is not laid over hot surfaces or sharp edges.
The connecting cable must not be ■ strained or bent.
Always unwind the mains cable completely before connecting the appliance to the mains socket.
The electrical safety of the appliance is only assured when it is connected to a properly installed protective earth (PE) conductor system.

Startup
Unpacking
Remove the appliance, all accessory parts and the user manual from the box.
◆ Remove all packaging materials and protective foils from the appliance and the accessories before using it for the first time.
NOTE
Do not remove the rating plate ▶ any warning signs on the appliance.
Keep the original packaging during the warranty or guarantee period in order to return the appliance in the packaging in the event of a warranty or guarantee claim. Transport damage will invalidate the warranty or guarantee.
Check the delivery contents
Check for visible signs of damage or missing items.
Report incomplete or damaged contents to your supplier immediately.
Before using for the first time
Wipe the hot plates (8 and 9) with a ◆ damp cloth.
Lightly oil the hot plates with vegetable oil and fold the lid down.
Turn the temperature regulator (4) to position 6.
Insert the plug into a mains socket. The red power indicator (3) lights up and the appliance starts heating. This can take a few minutes.
NOTE
When using for the first time, it is possible that production-related additives such as grease could cause slight odour or smoke. This is completely normal. Ensure sufficient ventilation.
Wait until the green temperature indicator (2) lights up.
Pull the plug out of the mains socket and allow the appliance to cool down completely.
Wipe the appliance with a damp cloth.
General notes
The waffle mixture should have a thick texture but still smoothly flow off the spoon.
To prevent the waffles from softening, do not lay the finished waffles on top of each other.
Use fresh ingredients only. ■
■The ingredients used should be at room temperature.
Waffles taste best when they are fresh-ly prepared.
Do not use too much baking powder.
■Only fill the lower hot plate with enough mixture so that it is just covered. Use a dipping spoon for thin waffle mixtures and a tablespoon for thick waffle mixtures.
■ Work quickly so that the waffle mixture does not burn onto the lower hotplate.
NOTE
The heating plates (8) and (9) are provided with a ceramic non-stick coating. It prevents the waffle mixture from sticking. It is also resistant to scratching, high temperatures, can be easily cleaned and is environment friendly.
Baking times
The baking time depends on the mixture and the selected setting on the temperature regulator.
The baking time for a thick but smoothly flowing mixture
is 6 - 7 minutes at level 1, ■
3 minutes at level 3, ■
and approximately 40 seconds at level
6, which allows quick preparation of tasty waffles - without long waiting times.
Recipe suggestion
Butter waffles (approx. 10 waffles)
150 g of soft butter ■
60 g of sugar ■
2 packets of vanilla sugar ■
3 eggs ■
200 g of flour ■
12 teaspoon of baking powder ■
14 I of milk ■
Allow the butter to melt and cool down again. Stir in the vanilla sugar and then the eggs. Finally add the flour with the baking powder and the milk. Stir everything to smooth mass.
You will find additional recipes and tips in the recipe book supplied.
Baking waffles
Prepare the waffle mixture.
Oil the heating surfaces each time before using – not before each waffle. Saturate a kitchen roll with vegetable oil and wipe it over the heating surfaces.
◆old the lid down.
- Get the temperature regulator to the desired level.
We recommend level 3.
◆ insert the plug into a mains socket. The red power indicator (3) lights up and the appliance starts heating. Wait until the green temperature indicator lights up. This can take 2 to 3 minutes.
◆old the lid (6) up.
◆fill the middle of the lower hotplate with the waffle mixture.
◆old the lid down.
NOTE
If too much waffle mixture is used, it can ooze out of the side of the appliance. This particularly applies to mixtures with raising agents. Use less mixture when filling the next time.
If you fill with too little mixture, the waffles will be smaller.
During baking, lift up the lid briefly to inspect the waffle. Allow it to bake to a golden brown colour.
NOTE
The first waffles may stick to the ▶ upper hotplate although it was oiled. This will stop happening after a few times.
Remove the finished baked waffle.
NOTE
In order not to damage the coating of the hotplate, only use heat-resistant cutlery made of plastic or wood.
Switching off
If you no longer wish to bake further waffles, pull the plug out of the mains socket.
Wait until the appliance has cooled down before cleaning and storing.
Cleaning and care
Before beginning, pay attention to the safety instructions in the Safety section!
Clean the appliance after each use. ◆
Wipe all parts of the appliance with a ◆ damp cloth.
Storage
If you do not intend to use the appliance for a longer period of time, clean it as described in the section Cleaning and care. Wind the connecting cable onto the cable winder (7).
Store the appliance at a dry, clean and frost-free location which is protected against direct sunlight.
