candles, cigarettes, and heating elements of the appliance), causing severe injuries to persons
and serious damage.
DO NOT cook any high-proof alcoholic liquid or alcoholic
foodstuffs (e.g. mulled wine, grog) on the appliance. Do not pour any alcoho-
lic liquid on the appliance to avoid risk of explosion and fire.
Non-stick coating
The heating plates of your Design Waffle Maker Pro are provided with non-stick coatings. Even
without using additional oil, food will not stick to the coated surfaces. Due to the baked food,
some discolouration may occur. However, this will not affect the baking performance.
Please adhere to the following precautions:
•
Before first use,
wipe the non-stick coatings of the heating plates with a little cooking oil.
Thereafter, there is no need to add any further oil for baking.
• Do not use the appliance, if the non-stick coating is scratched, cracked or detached due to
overheating.
• Only use wooden or heat-resistant plastic cooking utensils with the appliance. Do not use
hard or sharp objects for scratching, stirring, or cutting on the coatings. We will not be liable
for damage to the non-stick coating, if metal utensils or similar objects have been used. Do not
use any spray-on non-stick coatings.
• The non-stick coatings minimise the effort of cleaning. Do not use abrasive scourers or ab
-
rasive cleaners for cleaning. Even stubborn residues can be removed via a soft sponge or soft
nylon brush and warm dishwater.

Before first use
Before firts use the waffle maker should be preheated for ten minutes closed and the tempe-
rature control set to the highest setting. This will remove the smell typically encountered when
first switching on the waffle maker. Please ensure sufficient ventilation. Clean the appliance
afterwards as described in ›Care and cleaning‹.
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 (see: ›Safety instructions‹). Do not remove the rating label.
2. Wipe the heating plates with a damp soft cloth and warm soapy water. Dry it properly after
cleaning.
Note:
When using the Design Waffle Maker 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 temperature control setting without any dough. If the burnt smell occurs again on later
use, clean the appliance (see: ›Care and cleaning‹). If the burnt smell persists stubbornly even
after thoroughly cleaning the appliance, return the appliance to an authorised service centre
for examination and repair.
3. To grease the heating plates, brush the hot grids with a flavourless oil. Then wipe with a
paper towel or pastry brush.
4. Preheat your Design Waffle Maker Pro on the highest temperature control setting, turn on
the appliance and wait round about 8 minutes. The green indicator light will be illuminated
when the appliance is preheated and ready for filling in the dough. Turn the temperature con-
trol to the preferred setting. For best results, do not open waffle maker during cooking process.
Use
1. Prepare the dough. You will find a ›Recipes‹ section at the end of this manual.
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 plates.
Close the lid.
Do not touch the exterior of the Design Waffle Maker 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 waffle maker during operation and only touch the handle, or the temperature control.
Do not touch
the heating plates.
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 red indica-
tor light will turn on as soon as the plug is connected to the power outlet.
3. Preheat your Design Waffle Maker Pro on the highest temperature control setting. Therefore
turn on the appliance and wait round about 8 minutes. The green indicator light will be illumi-
nated when the appliance is preheated and ready for filling in the dough. Turn the temperature
control to the preferred setting. For best results, do not open the waffle maker during cooking
process. It is important that the heating plates are preheated and greased before the first use.
After finishing the first waffle no more greasing is necessary. To grease brush them with a
flavourless oil. Then wipe with a paper towel or pastry brush.
