Before First Use
- Remove all packaging material and check whether the appliance is complete.
- Place the appliance on an even, non-slippery and heat resistant surface.

The waffle plates (4) have a protective coating. To remove the protective layers on the heating elements, heat up the waffle plates on its highest setting (without food) for approx. 10 minutes. Slightly grease the waffle plates with some cooking oil before using the device for the first time. This helps to seal the heating plates and must only be carried out once.

After this preheating process, your waffle maker is ready for operation. Let it completely cool down and clean it as described under Cleaning and Care.
Warning : Plastic bags are a danger to toddlers and babies, therefore keep them away to avoid suffocation
