Using your waffle maker

Before first use

• Unpack your waffle maker. You may wish to keep the packaging for future use.
• Remove and wash the waffle plates thoroughly to remove any impurities or residues that may be left over from the manufacturing process (follow the directions under Care and Cleaning).
• Clean the outside of your waffle maker with a soft damp cloth. The cover can be polished with a soft dry cloth.
  Note that the first time you use your waffle maker, you may notice a slight burning smell and a little smoke. This is completely normal and will soon disappear.

DuraCeramic™ coated waffle plates
The waffle plates feature the exclusive DuraCeramic™  coating. This specialised natural ceramic coating is designed to transfer heat quicker and more efficiently than standard non-stick coatings – meaning faster cooking times for your  delicious home-cooked snacks. In addition, the DuraCeramic™ coating is scratch resistant – this is a product built to last. Peace of mind comes from the fact that the DuraCeramic™  coating is PTFE and PFOA free, so this exclusive  coating is durable and easy to clean.
DuraCeramic™  coating – designed to handle whatever you throw at it with ease.

Using your waffle maker
Take care around hot surfaces. The waffle plates get very hot. DO NOT touch anyparts,orattempttoremoveorreplacethewaffleplatesuntilcompletely cooled.
Steam may escape from around the waffle maker during cooking. Never leave your waffle maker unattended while in use.

1. Plug your waffle maker into the mains supply socket and switch the socket on if required. The green power light will come on and your waffle maker will start heating up.

2. When your waffle maker is fully heated the amber ready-to-cook light will come on.
   This light will come on and go out during cooking.

3. Unclip the latch on the handle and open the lid.

4. Carefully pour your batter mix into the bottom waffle plate. For the perfect waffle, we recommend you pour a ladleful (about 75ml) into the centre of each grid of the waffle plate. Make sure you don’t overfill the waffle plate as the  mixture may spill over the edges of the plate.

5. Close the lid. DO NOT clip the latch shut during cooking. This allows the waffle to rise and the steam to release (you may notice the lid lift slightly as the waffle rises). Cook the waffle according to the recipe time.

6. When cooked, open the lid. Watch out for escaping steam – we recommend that you use a tea towel or wear oven gloves. Remove the waffle with a non-metallic spatula.
   Don’t use a metal blade as this can damage the DuraCeramic™  surface of the plates.

7. Unplug your waffle maker from the mains supply socket. Do not leave the waffle maker plugged in when not in use.

Hints and tips

• When preparing your Classic and Luxury waffle batters, make sure that you don’t over-mix. Ideally these batters should be slightly lumpy. Producing smooth batters will result in chewy waffles that won’t rise well.
• If you are preparing more than 1 batch of waffles, keep these warm in your oven until the others are ready. Arrange in a single layer in an oven tray and place into your oven at a low heat. This way everyone can enjoy their waffles at  the same time.
• Freezing and reheating waffles is easy. Allow to cool completely and then stack 2 waffles with a layer of baking parchment between each one. Wrap in plastic wrap or a freezer bag and freeze. To reheat simply pop the frozen waffles  into your toaster or under the grill.

Care and cleaning

Unplug and switch off your waffle maker and allow it to fully cool down before cleaning it. Never immerse the main body, cord set or plug in water or liquid of any kind.
Never use steel wool, scouring pads, abrasive cleaners or metallic utensils to clean your waffle maker.

1. Wipe the waffle plates with absorbent paper or a soft damp cloth.

2. Clean the outside of your waffle maker with a soft damp cloth. The cover can be polished with a soft dry cloth.

3. Remove one plate at a time. Press the corresponding release button and lift the plate away from the heating element.

4. Immerse the plates in warm, soapy water. Rinse with clean water. Wipe dry with a soft cloth.
   Note: We recommend that you wash the plates by hand only, in order to preserve the DuraCeramic™ coating.

5. Replace one plate at a time. Guide the positioning tabs into the slots located on the hinge side of the waffle maker. Press the plate gently to lock in place onto the heating element.
   Note: The bottom plate is slightly shallower than the top plate. Each plate will only fit into the appropriate position on the waffle maker (bottom or top).

Storage

1. Allow the waffle maker to cool fully before storing and ensure that the appliance is clean.
2. Lock the waffle plates together by clipping the latch shut. Wrap the cord in the cord storage area.
3. Store the appliance upright. Alternatively, on a flat, level surface, away from the edge and where it cannot be easily knocked over.

Connection to the mains supply

This appliance must be earthed.

This appliance is fitted with either a moulded or rewirable BS1363, 13 amp plug. The fuse should be rated at 13 amps and be ASTA approved to BS1362.

If the plug is unsuitable, it should be dismantled and removed from the supply cord and an appropriate plug fitted as detailed below. If you remove the plug it must not be connected to a 13 amp socket and the plug must be disposed of immediately.

The wires of the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:

GREEN/YELLOW  = EARTH          BLUE = NEUTRAL          BROWN = LIVE

The wire which is coloured GREEN/YELLOW must be connected to the terminal in your plug which is marked with an E or by the earth symbol () or coloured GREEN or GREEN /YELLOW.

The wire which is coloured BLUE must be connected to the terminal in your plug which is marked with the letter N or coloured BLACK.

The wire which is coloured BROWN must be connected to the terminal in your plug which is marked with the letter L or coloured RED.

If any other plug is used, a 13 amp fuse must be fitted either in the plug or adaptor or at the distributor board.
