SEVERIN CP-2196 Instructions For Use Manual page 11

Before using for the fi rst time
∙ Take the appliance and all accessories
from their packaging. Remove and
dispose of all packing materials.
∙ Unwind the power cord completely.
∙ Let the appliance heat up for 4 minutes at
maximum power. During this initial heating
period, a slight smell may be emitted;
ensure suffi cient 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 into
one of the fi ve recesses on the plate, and
then use the smoothing tool to spread out
the mix evenly by swirling it round with a
circular motion.
∙ Fill the other four recesses without delay.
∙ 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 fl ip-over-tool under one third of
the crêpe, lift it up and turn it over.
∙ Use this method to turn all the crêpes,
one after the other.
∙ Cook the other side for a short time until
done. To check whether it is ready, use
the fl ip-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 smoothing tool should be moistened
a little to prevent the crêpe mix sticking to
it.
∙ When attempting the fi rst 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.
