Troubleshooting
Crepes sticking to the plate
Ensure the plate is fully preheated as indicated by the Thermo-Spot®. Re-apply a small amount of oil or butter if needed, and check that the non-stick coating is not damaged. Clean the plate thoroughly.
Uneven cooking
Ensure the batter is spread evenly across all six sections. Make sure the appliance is on a level surface. Rotate the appliance or adjust batter thickness if necessary for future batches.
Appliance not heating up
Check that the power cord is securely plugged into both the appliance and a working wall socket. Verify that the socket is receiving power by testing another appliance.
