HOT SURFACES – RISK OF BURNS
CAUTION:
• The exterior of the »Design Gourmet Wafflemaker Advanced
4S« and the heating 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 Waffle-
maker 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 personal damage.
• Be especially careful when you have to move the appliance while ope-
rating 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 appliance
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 vanis-
hed 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
