Do not touch the exterior of the Design Wafflemaker while the appliance is in use.
Always keep your hands, face and arms as well as any clothing and other heat-sensitive
objects away from the Wafflemaker during operation and only touch the handle,
attachment, or the control panel. Do not touch the heating surface.
Connect the appliance directly to a separately protected mains power supply wall
socket with protective conductor (earth/ground;
220/240 V, 50 Hz, AC, rated for 16 A).
The netindicatorlight will turn on as soon as the plug is connected to the power outlet.
3. Preheat your Design Wafflemaker on setting 4 or preferred setting (setting 1: slight
browning; setting 6: deep browning), turn on the appliance and wait round about 4
minutes. You will hear 6 beeps and the green indicator light will be illuminated when
the appliance is preheated and ready for filling in the batter. Turn the browningcontrol
on the preferred setting. For best results, do not open waffle maker during cooking
process. Doing so will interfere with the timing mechanism.
It is Important that the heating surface is preheated and greased before the first
usage. After finishing the first waffle no more greasing is necessary. To grease,
spray the hot grids with cooking spray or brush them with a flavourless oil. Then
wipe with a paper towel or pastry brush.
4. Make sure the appliance is ready-to-operate and the green indicatorlight is
illuminated before pouring the batter onto the heating surface.
NOTE: It is normal that a slight burnt smell occurs during the first operation (section
´First use` of the operating instructions).
WARNING! Pouring batter onto the preheated heating surface batter or grease might
spurt out. Keep enough distance to the appliance during operation and do not touch the
hot exterior or heating surface of the wafflemaker. For opening the lid use the handle only.
NOTE: For best results, do not open waffle maker during cooking process. Doing so
will interfere with the timing mechanism.
5. Using the recipes provided, fill measuring scoop to the 3/4 mark or to top of
scoop, depending on the recipe. (For loose batters, fill to the 3/4 mark; for thicker
batters, fill to the top.) Pour batter evenly into the centre of the waffle grids. Use a
heat-proof spatula (no metal cooking cutlery!) to spread the batter evenly over the
grids. Close the lid and rotate the unit 180° to the right. The turning locks the lid.
Pay attention not touching the hot exterior of the appliance.
6. When the waffle is completely baked, the waffle maker will sound 3 beeps. Baking time
is determined by browning level. Choose a setting on the browning control dial. For
golden brown waffles, we recommend using setting 4.
7. Once the waffle is ready and the waffle maker has beeped 3 times, rotate the waffle
maker 180° to the left, open the lid and remove waffle by gently loosening the edges with
