Then, by the handle, fold the lid up until it rests in a stable open position. Espe-
cially ensure that there are no foreign objects (e.g. promotional material, packa-
ging) on the waffle plates.

IMPORTANT - When using the appliance for the first time, you may notice a fine
smoke haze and some smoke may escape. This is caused by heating the com-
ponents of the appliance for the first time. There is no need for concern. To avo-
id any influence on the taste of your food, you should let the appliance operate
approx. 20 minutes without any food on it. If the smoke haze persists on further
use, unplug the appliance and leave it cool down to room temperature. Then cle-
an the appliance thoroughly, especially ensuring that no residues of food stick to
the waffle plates and in the moat at the rim of the lower waffle plate. If the smoke
haze still persists, return the appliance to an authorized service centre for exami-
nation and repair.
WARNING
– The heating elements start operation as soon as the appli-
ance is switched on. Both waffle plates (base and lid) and even the exterior of the
appliance get hot! Only touch the appliance at the operating elements (buttons,
browning control dial, handle)! During heating, ensure good ventilation.
NOTE
The following step of preparation is only required for brand-new products. There
is no need to make any settings for this procedure.
NOTE
There is no need for concern, when heating up the appliance without any food.
The heating elements are temperature-controlled, preventing the appliance from

thoroughly. To prepare the non-stick coatings for use: Drip only a few drops
of cooking oil on a dry, clean kitchen towel and use this for wiping the non-stick
coatings of the waffle plates.
