OPERATION
Before first use
Before first use and after a long period of storage, clean the appliance with a damp soft cloth
and warm soapy water (see ›Care and cleaning‹).
WARNING: Always unplug the appliance and wait for the appliance to cool down, before
cleaning. Do not pour or drip any liquids on the appliance or power cord. When liquids are
spilled on the appliance, immediately unplug the appliance and dry it to avoid risk of electric
shock or fire. Do not attempt to operate the appliance, when liquids are on or in the electrical
section of the appliance. Do not clean the appliance in the dishwasher.
1. Remove all promotional materials and packing and place the appliance on a convenient
surface (explained in ›Safeguards‹).
2. Wipe the heating surface with a damp soft cloth. Dry it properly after cleaning.
Note: When using the Design Crêpemaker Pro for the first time, you may notice a fine smoke
haze, because of the first heating of some of the components. There is no need for concern.
To prevent smell and taste of your food from being affected, you should heat the appliance on
the highest level without any batter. If the burnt smell occurs again on later use, clean the ap-
pliance(see:›Careandcleaning‹).Iftheburntsmellpersistsstubbornlyevenafterthoroughly
cleaning the appliance, return the appliance to an authorised service centre for examination
and repair.
3. Grease a paper towel lightly with oil. Whipe the heating plate with the paper towel to
prepare the non-stick coating for use.
The temperatures given in the recipes are for information purposes only. You can change them
to suit your requirements.
In between each crêpe, clean the batter spreader or the
wooden batter spreader
with the brush
provided for this purpose and leave these accessories soak in the water tray.
The minimum adjustment of the thermostat will not stop the appliance from heating. At this
adjustment, the heating plate is regulated at around 155°C. The appliance stops heating com-
pletely only when disconnected from the power outlet.
Note: The batter spreader may only be used between positions 1 and 6. Never leave it
permanently on the hot plate (risk of damage). The wooden batter spreader must be used to
spread the batter between positions 7 and 8.

2. Place the appliance on a well accessible, stable, level, dry, and suitable large table or
counter. Do not place any cloth or tissue beneath or on the appliance, to avoid any risk of fire,
electric shock and overheating. Always keep the table or counter clean and dry and immedi-
ately wipe off spilled liquids. Ensure that there is no foreign substance on the heating surface.
Do not touch the exterior of the Design Crêpemaker Pro 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
