For each waffle place sufficient batter into the centre of the bottom baking surface so that it spreads itself to approx. On this first use the development of a light odour may occur, caused by production residues (a slight smoke development is also possible). When it has cooled down, thoroughly wipe the baking plates once more with a moist cloth. If you wish to bake two waffles at the same time, place the same amount of batter into both baking areas. It can happen that, during the baking process, the green operating lamp q goes out briefly and then lights up again. This indicates that the adjusted temperature had fallen, causing the appliance to automatically heat itself back up to the programmed temperature. You can determine the level of browning either by adjustment of the temperature regulator e or by means of the baking time. In this way, the waffles can be baked to a golden yellow or a crispy brown. If the waffles are not yet ready, reclose the waffle iron and let them bake for a little longer. When the casing is open, there is the risk of receiving a fatal electrical shock. Before commencing with the cleaning of the appliance, remove the plug from the mains power socket and allow the appliance to cool down. This would bring about the risk of a potentially 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 any grease residue. Then clean all surfaces and the power cable with a lightly moistened dish cloth. Residues from these cleaning agents could possibly find their way into the next few waffles and thus lead to personal injury!When removing the waffles, be sure not to accidentally damage the coating of the baking surfaces. After baking the last waffle, remove the plug from the mains power socket and allow the appliance to cool down, with the lid up. It is better to lay a wet wash cloth on the encrusted residues in order to soften them. [. . . ] Mix all ingredients together uniformly, this will ensure a constant level of browning.
