• When removing the waffles, be sure not to ac-
cidentally damage the coating of the baking sur-
faces. If you do, it will be harder to separate the
waffles from the surfaces.
• After baking the last waffle, remove the plug from
the mains power socket and allow the appliance
to cool with the lid up.
8. Cleaning and care
Attention!
Never open the appliance housing. There are no
user-serviceable elements inside. When the casing
is open, there is the risk of receiving a fatal electrical
shock.
Before cleaning the appliance, ....
• remove the plug from the mains power socket
and allow it to cool down completely.
• Under no circumstances may the components of
the appliance be submerged in water or other
liquids! There would be the risk of a fatal electric
shock upon the next use of the appliance should
moisture be present in the voltage conducting
elements .
• First of all, clean the baking surfaces with a dry
paper towel to soak up the grease residue.
• Then clean all surfaces and the power cable
with a lightly moistened dish cloth. Always dry
the appliance well before using it again.
• Do not use detergents or solvents. These could
not only cause damage to the appliance, they
can also leave traces that could be baked into
the next waffles.
In the case of stubborn residues:
• NEVER make use of hard objects. These could
damage the coatings of the baking surfaces.
• It is better to lay a wet dish cloth on the encrusted
residues in order to soften them.
