a bit. This is normal, and common to
appliances with a nonstick surface.
4. Lift lid of waffle iron by grasping the handle
and pushing back and up in one fluid motion.
Lid will stay open at 105° position until you
lower it.
5. Pour batter onto the center of the lower waffle
grid. Use a heat-proof spatula to spread batter
evenly over the grids. Close the lid. The waffle
iron will automatically latch shut when you
lower the lid. The green light will turn off but
the red light will stay illuminated.
6. Baking time is determined by the browning
level that you chose in Step 3. It may take
up to 4 minutes to bake your waffle on
setting #6.
7. When the waffle is ready, the green light will
turn on and the audible tone will sound.
Remove the waffle by gently loosening the
edges with a heat-proof plastic spatula or
wooden spatula. Never use metal utensils, as
they will damage the nonstick coating.
8. When you are finished baking, turn the
control dial counterclockwise to the OFF
setting. The red indicator light will turn off.
Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
Allow the waffle iron to cool down completely
before handling.
CLEANING AND CARE
Once you have finished baking, turn the control
dial to the OFF position and remove plug from
electrical outlet. Leave top lid open so grids begin
to cool. Allow waffle iron to cool down completely
before handling.
Never take your waffle iron apart for cleaning.
Simply brush crumbs from grooves, and absorb
any excess cooking oil by wiping with a dry cloth
or paper towel.
You may clean the grids by wiping with a damp
cloth to prevent staining and sticking from batter
or oil buildup. Be certain grids have cooled
completely before cleaning. If batter adheres
to plates, simply pour a little cooking oil onto the
baked batter and let stand approximately 5 min-
utes, thus allowing it to soften for easy removal.
To clean exterior, wipe with a soft dry cloth. Never
use an abrasive cleanser or harsh pad. NEVER
IMMERSE CORD, PLUG OR UNIT IN WATER
OR OTHER LIQUID.
STORAGE
Store with cord wrapped
securely under base. For
compact storage, stand
waffle iron on back end
with control panel facing up.
The waffle iron has been
designed with a special
latching feature so the lid
stays closed during storage.
TIPS TO MAKE
PERFECT WAFFLES
• Setting #1 will produce the lightest color waf-
fles. Setting #6 will produce the darkest color
waffles. Experiment to determine which setting
produces the best waffle color for you.
• For evenly filled waffles, pour the batter onto
the center of the lower grid and spread out
evenly to the edges. The entire lower grid
should be filled.
• We recommend using
3
⁄
4
cup of batter to fill
lower grid.
• Waffles are best when made to order, but
baked waffles may be kept warm in a 200°F
oven. Place them in a baking pan or wrap in foil
while in the oven. (Waffles wrapped in foil may
lose their crispiness.)
• Baked waffles may be frozen. Allow to cool
completely, then place in plastic food storage
bag. Use waxed paper to keep waffles separat-
ed. Reheat in a toaster or toaster oven when
ready to eat.
• For added flavor dress your waffles with fruit
syrups, warm fruit compote, fresh berries,
chopped fruit or yogurt.
• For sweeter waffles, add powdered sugar,
whipped cream, ice cream or chocolate sauce.
