4. Close the appliance and connect the plug to a wall socket (220–240 V~,

50 Hz). The red control lamp lights up and indicates that the heating is operational. Set temperature regulator to stage 4–5 and the preheating begins. As soon as the required temperature is reached, the control light switches off.

5. Heat the appliance up for a couple of minutes without dough, in order to

eliminate possible manufacturing residues. Make sure the room is well ventilated during this process. After the initial heating process the appliance might show signs of wear, which do not affect its features and do not constitute a reason for rejection.

6. Before first use, slightly grease both waffle plates with heat resistant grease

like margarine, for example, using a pastry brush (as the waffle plates are non-stick coated, greasing is only necessary before the very first use).

7. The appliance may generate a slight smell when first using it, which is

8. The first waffle should not be used and should be thrown away.

1. Place the batter – best with a scoop – in the middle of the lower baking

plates. When the appliance is closed, the batter spreads out uniformly. If you fill with too little batter, the upper part of the appliance does not lie properly; the upper side of the waffle will then not become as brown as the lower side. If you fill with too much batter, the batter runs out and soils the appliance.

2. Close the appliance immediately after filling with batter, so that the waffles

will become equally brown above and below.

3. A few seconds after the batter has been filled, the control lamp turns on; the

4. The desired degree of browning can be achieved with the continuously

adjustable temperature regulator. With a low setting, you obtain lighter and with higher setting darker waffles. All degrees of browning are in the continuous intermediate range.

5. When the baking process has been completed, the control lamp switches

off and shows, that the waffles are ready. The heating is interrupted. If the waffles are too light choose a higher baking setting, if they are too dark, choose a lower setting.

6. After removal of the waffle, the appliance can immediately be filled again

with batter. The control lamp turns on again. Continue until all of the batter has been used.

7. After baking, unplug the appliance. It is not switched off until disconnected

from the mains. Attention: After disconnecting, the appliance is still very hot for some time! CLEANING Before cleaning, always turn off the appliance by switch to the „0“position, and unplug it from the electrical outlet. Allow the appliance to cool before cleaning it.

1. Never immerse the appliance into water or any other liquid.

2. It is best to clean the baking surface while it is still warm with a soft brush

or with a damp cloth.

3. Never use pointed or hard objects. They would scratch the antistick coating.

4. The appliance must be completely dry before using it again.

RECIPES Waffles taste best when they are still warm and fresh from the maker. If you want them to be crispy then you should not pile them on top of each other, but leave them to cool off a little on a cake grid. But waffles also taste very good when served cold. They remain fresh and crisp for some time when kept in a closed container (e. g. a cookie jar – do not forget to let them cool off first). However, you need to mix more grease into the dough. Another alternative is just to deep freeze the waffles. If the dough contains only small amounts of grease, Copyright UNOLD AG | www.unold.de UNOLD ©24 von 80 Stand 11.6.2021

Sweet waffles Add 1 pinch of salt, ground cloves, chopped or ground nuts or almonds, sultanas, chopped apples, cinnamon, cardamom, anise, ginger powder, coriander, grated lemon cests or lemon juice etc. A dash of alcohol (rum, arrak, cherry brandy) refines each recipe. Serve the waffles dusted with icing sugar. Serve them with strawberries and whipped cream, with hot raspberries, with apple purée or ice cream, etc. Common waffles (crispy, sweet) Approx. 10 waffles Ingredients: 125 g butter, 75 g sugar, 1 bag vanilla sugar, 3 eggs, 1 tbsp rum, 125 g flour, 125 g cornflour, 2 tsp baking powder, milk (approx. 1/8 l). it is advisible to grease the anti-adhesive baking surfaces slightly with a greasing brush. The waffles can then be removed more easily from the waffle mould. If you use too much grease it can spill over while making the waffles and make the appliance dirty. Moreover, the waffles then also develop spots. If the batter leads to undesired results, e. g. it remains clinging to the waffle mould or the waffles are not of an even brown color, you might need to change to a better quality flour. Therefore only use high quality flour. Another reason: old grease, which was not removed completely, might be burnt. In such a case, clean the baking surfaces carefully and then grease them with butter or bacon rind. If you add milk (especially full-cream milk) and sugar to the batter you get darker waffles. On the other hand, if you add coconut grease to the batter the waffles keep a lighter appearance. The batter ingredients such as butter, margarine, eggs, milk, etc. have the same temperature. For this reason, it is advisible to keep the ingredients at room temperature for some time before using them. This will keep the dough from clogging and developing spots during baking. Here are a few basic recipes which have already been tried out in our laboratory kitchen. You can easily change these recipes to meet individual tastes by varying the different ingredients. If you want to make more or less waffles you can, of course, alter the amounts specified accordingly. If you want to use stevia instead of sugar, simply replace the specification for sugar with a specification for stevia. (Caution: In this case the dough will be somewhat thinner). Honey or syrup is used like sugar. In this case the sweetening effect is not as strong, however browning of the waffles is more pronounced.
