8. Cleaning and care
Warning:
Never open the casing of the appliance. There are
no user-serviceable elements inside. When the ca-
sing is open, there is the risk of receiving a fatal
electrical shock. Before cleaning the appliance,
remove the power plug from the wall socket and
allow the device to cool down completely.
Warning:
Under no circumstances may the components of the
appliance be submerged in water or other liquids!
There would be the risk of a 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 the grease residue.
• Then clean all surfaces and the power cable with
a lightly moistened dish cloth. Always dry the
appliance well before using it again.
Attention!
• Do not use chemical or aggressive cleaning
agents or solvents. These could not only cause
damage to the appliance, they can also leave
traces that could be baked into the next waffles.
• Under no circumstances should you use hard ob-
jects for cleaning. These could damage the coa-
tings of the baking surfaces.
For greasy soiling:
Apply some mild detergent onto a damp cloth. Use
it to rub the greasy soiling away. If this still does not
dissolve it, use a soft washing-up brush.
Remove the detergent residues thoroughly with a
wash cloth moistened with clean water. Completely
remove the detergent residues from the cloth with
clean water and then repeat the cleaning process
until all detergent residues are removed from the
waffel surfaces.
If you do not, there may be residues in the next waf-
fles!
In the case of stubborn residues:
Place a piece of damp cloth on the stubborn resi-
dues, so as to soften them. After that, you can then
remove the softened residues with a wet cloth.
