• Before you start baking for the first time, grease the non-stick coated cooking plates lightly   
   with a small amount of oil or fat, and let the appliance heat up for about 5 minutes with the   
   cooking plates closed. This will remove the smell typically encountered when first switching    
   on the appliance. Please ensure sufficient ventilation.
• Clean the waffle maker afterwards as described in “Cleaning and Care”.
• Some smoke may be emitted from the appliance for the first use, this is normal as some of    
   the manufacturing residue is burnt away.
