Cooking Waffles
The timer on Hatco Flip Waffle Makers is designed to operate
automatically. If desired, the timer also can be operated
manually. The following procedure is written for automatic
operation.
Automatic Operation
—A magnetic sensor near the cradle
on the rear housing senses the presence of the cooking plate
assembly. When the waffle maker is opened completely and
the cooking plate assembly nears the cradle, the sensor
signals the unit to stop/reset the timer. As soon as the cooking
plate assembly locator pin moves out of the cradle, the sensor
will signal the unit to start the timer.
Manual Operation
—Press the
Enter button to start or
stop the timer at any time.
NOTE: For manual operation, do not open the waffle maker
completely. If the cooking plate assembly gets too
close to the cradle, the magnetic sensor will detect its
presence, and the timer will be controlled as described
in “Automatic Operation” above.
1. Make sure the “Startup” procedure is complete.
NOTE: Use an oil-based food release spray on the cooking
plates to ease waffle removal, if necessary.

2. Open the waffle maker completely, and spread waffle
batter onto the bottom cooking plate. The amount of batter
will be determined by the type of batter and the size of the
cooking plates.
3. Close the waffle maker.
• The LED display will flash “FLIP” for five seconds, and
the timer will start automatically.
4. Grasp both handles, and rotate the waffle maker 180° in
the direction shown by the arrow on the front of the top
cooking plate.
• Rotating the waffle maker helps to distribute the waffle
batter evenly in the cooking plates.

6. Continue to cook waffles by repeating steps 2–5 of this
procedure.
• If the waffles begin sticking to the cooking plates, spray
the top and bottom cooking plates lightly with an oil-
based food release spray. Continue to spray the plates
in between waffles as needed.
