Instructions for Use

Before first use

Before connecting to the mains power supply, clean the omelette maker following the instructions in the section entitled 'Care and maintenance'.

NOTE: When using the omelette maker for the first time, a slight smoke or odour may be emitted. This is normal and will soon subside. Allow for sufficient ventilation around the omelette maker.

Using the omelette maker

1. Prepare the omelette mixture that is to be cooked.
2. Plug in and switch on the omelette maker at the mains power supply. The [red power indicator light] and [green ready indicator light] will illuminate, signalling that the omelette maker has been switched on and is heating up.
3. Preheat the omelette maker; this will take approx. 2-3 minutes. The [green ready indicator light] will switch off once the required temperature has been reached.
4. Carefully open the lid using [heat-resistant gloves].
5. Pour the prepared omelette mixture evenly between the two non-stick cooking plates and then close the lid.
6. Cook the omelette mixture for approx. 5 minutes or until puffy and golden brown. The cooking time will vary dependent upon the type and quantity of ingredients used.
7. Once cooking is complete, use [heat-resistant gloves] to carefully open the lid and then remove the cooked omelette using a [heat-resistant plastic or wooden spatula].
8. When cooking multiple omelettes, close the lid after removing each omelette to maintain the heat and wait for the [green ready indicator light] to switch off before adding further ingredients.
9. Switch off and unplug the omelette maker from the mains power supply to turn it off. Leave the lid open and allow to cool.

NOTE: Always preheat the non-stick cooking plates before use. During use the [green ready indicator light] will cycle on and off to signal that the omelette maker is maintaining temperature. To prolong the life of the non-stick coating, carefully apply a thin coat of cooking oil to the non-stick cooking plates. Some ingredients, such as tomatoes and onions, can be partially cooked on the non-stick cooking plates before adding the omelette mix if required.
