ANSWERS
It is normal for your appliance
to release some smoke when
it is first used; try cleaning
it with a damp cloth before
turning it on.
Make sure the plug is
properly plugged into the
outlet, that you selected a
cooking method, and that
the appliance has preheated
properly.
Check the temperature selec-
ted or the cooking method
for the food and make sure
the appliance is properly
preheated.
Use the grill in the barbecue
or in the combined option
position and cook each kind
of food on a different plate,
this way the food flavours
won't mix.
The plates with "lower" inscri-
bed in them are inserted into
the lower part and those with
"upper" inscribed on them are
inserted into the upper part
by simply clipping them in
place.
After letting the appliance
cool, wipe with a hot, damp
cloth but do not run water
over it.
Avoid using too much fat
when cooking (e.g.: shrimp
in olive oil), the fat facilitates
release of smoke. Brush a little
fat/oil over your dry food.
WHAT DO I DO IF
The waffles don't cook properly Check
Some dough ran onto the
appliance housing
The dough runs onto the rim of
the appliance when it is closed
ANSWERS
that the selected
temperature or cooking method
is appropriate for the food and
make sure you preheat.
After cooling the appliance,
wipe with a warm, damp cloth,
but do not run under water.
Avoid pouring too much
dough onto the lower plate when
cooking, the waffle dough has
a raising agent that expands
during cooking.
