Cooking with the Waffle and Omelette Plates
• Preheat the appliance, until the green indicator illuminates.
• Place the food on the lower plate and close the handle. You will hear a click when it locks securely.
N.B: It is important to lock the plates, to ensure the plates are fully sealed, so your food cooks
properly.
• It may take a few seconds for the green light to switch off. This is normal.

part of the cooking cycle the light will go on and off during this process. You will need to assess
if the food is cooked by firmly pressing the release button and lifting the lid.
• When you are happy the food is cooked, remove it by gently loosening the edges with a heat-
proof plastic spatula.
N.B: When using the omelette plates always fill to just below the rim, to avoid over filling the plates.
