Important safety instructions

●

Before the appliance is used, the main

body as well as any attachments fitted

should be checked thoroughly for any

defects. If the appliance, for instance, has

been dropped onto a hard surface, it

must no longer be used:  even invisible

damage may have adverse effects on its

operational safety.

●

The power cord should be regularly

examined for any signs of damage. In the

event of such damage being found, the

appliance must no longer be used. 

●

Caution

: the accessible housing surfaces

become very hot during operation. Burns

can occur from touching the hot parts.

Always position the appliance with

sufficient surrounding space. Do not

place it directly by a wall or in a corner,

or near curtains or similar objects. Keep

inflammable objects well away and do

not cover the appliance during use.

●

Always place the unit on a level, heat-

resistant work surface impervious to

splashes and stains. Do not place it on

surfaces which may be hot, e.g. on hot-

plates or next to a gas stove.

●

Do not leave the appliance unattended

while in use.

●

Never attempt to cut the crêpes on the

crêpe-plate. To prevent damage to the

non-stick coating of the plate, only heat-

resistant plastic or wooden implements

should be used.

●

Always switch off and remove the plug

from the wall socket

-

after use, 

-

in cases of malfunction, 

-

during cleaning.

●

When removing the plug from the wall

socket, never pull on the power cord;

always grip the plug itself.

●

Do not use the crêpe maker for any

purpose other than making crêpes. It is

not suitable for frying food.

●

Do not operate the appliance outdoors

or in humid environments or rooms such

as a cellar or garage.

●

The appliance is not intended to be

operated by means of an external timer

or separate remote-control system.

●

This appliance is not intended for use by

any persons (including children) with

reduced physical, sensory or mental

capabilities, or lacking experience and

knowledge, unless they have been given

supervision or instruction concerning the

use of the appliance by a person

responsible for their safety.

●

Children should be supervised to ensure

that they do not play with the appliance.

●

No responsibility will be accepted if

damage results from improper use, or if

these instructions are not complied with. 

●

use only and not for commercial

applications.

●

In order to comply with safety

regulations and to avoid hazards, repairs

of electrical appliances must be carried

out by qualified personnel, including the

replacement of the power cord. If repairs

are needed, please send the appliance to

one of our customer service departments.

The address can be found in the

appendix to this manual. 

Before using for the first time

- Take the appliance and all accessories

from their packaging. Remove and

dispose of all packing materials.

●

Caution:

Keep packaging well away

from children:  there is a risk of

suffocation.

- Let the appliance heat up for 4 minutes

at maximum power. During this initial

heating period, a slight smell may be

emitted;  ensure sufficient ventilation. 

- Let the appliance cool down afterwards

and clean it as described in the section

General Care and Cleaning

.

Operation

- Unwind the power cord completely.

- Insert the plug into a suitable wall socket.

- Turn the temperature control to its

maximum position.

- Use the On/Off switch to turn the

appliance on. The red main indicator

light comes on. The appliance is now pre-

heating.

- Once the pre-set operating temperature

has been reached, the green ready-light

shows. 

- Put a small amount of the crêpe mix onto

the crêpe plate and use the spatula to

spread the mix evenly out across the

plate by swirling it round with a circular

motion.

- To keep the cooking temperature at a

constant level, the appliance will

periodically switch off and on again as

indicated by the green ready-light.

- Let the crêpes cook until the surface is no

longer liquid and they can be moved

easily.

- Slide the flip-over-tool under one third of

the crêpe, lift it up and turn it over.

- Cook the other side for a short time until

done. To check whether it is ready, use

the flip-over-tool to lift it slightly. The

crêpe should be clearly cooked, but

should not be browned;  that way it is

easy to fold or roll up.

- Remove the crêpe from the plate.

- Put your topping or spread onto the

crêpe and fold or roll it.

- If the crêpe has turned out a bit too dark,

use the temperature control to reduce

the temperature before cooking another

crêpe.

- If no further crêpes are to be cooked, use

the On/Off switch to turn the appliance

off. Remove the plug from the wall

socket and allow the appliance to cool

down.

Useful tips

- The spatula should be moistened a little

to prevent the crêpe mix sticking to it.

- When attempting the first crêpes, it is

advisable to use a little more mix, as

thicker crêpes are easier to handle.

- When the crêpe mix is placed onto the

plate, the differences in temperature and

tension may result in some slight cracking

noises. This is normal and no reason for

concern.
