Question
Does an electric crepe maker require immersion, and if so, how can it be done without damaging it?
Answer
Hello,
The device requires immersion.
A mechanical device [without a display and sensors] can be immersed as usual and thoroughly dried before use by shaking off the water and leaving it for a few days.
An electronic device should not be immersed, and it should be given to a Jewish technician who will disassemble a significant part and reassemble it, thus exempting it from immersion, as it is considered that its final work is done by a Jew.
It should be noted that it is not sufficient to disassemble a simple connection that anyone can disassemble and reassemble, such as a plug connection, but rather a connection that requires professionalism or skill.
