Hot surfaces – risk of burns

ating surfaces are getting hot during operation. Do not touch the exterior of
the Design Wafflemaker or the heating surface 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 panel.
• The appliance is electrical heated. The heating starts as soon as the power switch is turned
on. Do not place any foreign burnable substance (such as papers, plastics, textiles or alike) on
the heating surface, to avoid risk of fire. The appliance needs some time to cool down after
switching OFF the appliance. Do not leave any cooking cutlery on the hot heating surface. Be
aware of not touching the hot heating surface with any parts of your body or heat-sensitive
items. Ensure to open the lid all the way to make sure that it cannot fall down and cause per-
sonal damage.
• Be especially careful when you have to move the appliance while operating or shortly after
use when it is still hot. Hot liquids (such as grease or hot batter) could leak out of the appliance
and cause personal injury or material damage. Always pull the power cord and let the appli-
ance cool down before moving or cleaning the appliance.
•
Warning! Always open the lid all the way otherwise the lid might fall down and
causes personal injury.
• Operate the appliance on a well accessible, stable, level, dry, heat insensible and suitable
surface (such as glass, ceramics, stone or metal). Do not place it on a surface made of plastic
(or plastic covered) or vanished or coated wood to avoid damage caused by overheating.
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 immediately
wipe off spilled liquids. Do not place the appliance near the edge of the table or counter or on
inclined or wet surfaces or where it can fall.
• Do not place the appliance or any parts of it on or near hot surfaces (heater, gas burner,
grill or oven). Do not place the appliance on the power cord. If the power cord warms up du-
ring operation or is likely to be damaged, it must be replaced by an authorised service centre.

non-stick coating
The heating surface has a non-stick coating. If the coating is damaged, grazed or parts of it
detach from the heating surface do not use the appliance anymore.

surface to avoid damaging the coating. Only use cooking cutlery made of wood or heat in-
sensitive plastic. Never cut on or try to scrape off batter from the heating surface using hard,
sharp-edged items.
• Never use abrasive cleaners, cleaning pads or any hard and sharp objects (i.e. metal scou-
ring pads) for cleaning. Clean the appliance with a damped sponge or cloth and carefully dry
