USE OF THE APPLIANCE
Unwind the cord completely before plugging it into the outlet. Place the appliance on a stable,
heat-resistant surface. Now the appliance can be opened. Close the appliance and let it warm up.
It is warm when the indicator light shows “green”.
MAKING WAFFLES
1. Be sure the Cooking Plates are clean and free from dust. If necessary, wipe with a damp cloth.
Set the appliance on a dry, clean and flat surface.
2. Make sure the Folding Handle is locked into extended position by lifting up until it clicks securely.
3. When using the Waffle Maker for the first time, it is necessary to condition each Cooking Plate.
To condition open grids, brush the exposed Waffle grid surfaces with cooking oil and close the
Lid. The grids may need occasional reconditioning.
Note: The Waffle Maker is coated with a non-stick surface. Do not use spray-on oils, grease or
shortening, as they can cause build-up on the Cooking Plates. Use cooking oil instead.
4. Turn the Adjustable Browning Control to the lowest position. Plug the appliance into a suitable
electrical outlet; the red Power ON Indicator Light will illuminate, indicating the unit is ready to
heat when the Adjustable Browning Control is turned up, (clockwise).
5. Your Waffle Maker has an Adjustable Browning Control.
6. When preparing a recipe for the first time, it may become necessary to experiment with the
Adjustable Browning Control. When turned up (clockwise) there will be more browning.
7. While preparing batter, allow the appliance to pre-heat (about 3 minutes), The Green Pre-heat
Indicator Light will illuminate when the unit has reached the correct temperature.
8. Using a protective oven mitt, lift the Lid by the extended, Folding Handle and pour approximately
1 cup of batter onto the lower Cooking Plate using an “X” pattern and carefully close the Lid,
making sure the upper Lid is set down into position. Do not force shut. Steam will be released
between the Cooking Plates. Caution should be taken to prevent hands from coming into
contact with the steam. Be careful not to pour too much batter, as excess batter will seep out
from between the Cooking Plates.
9. Wait approximately 10 seconds, and then turn the unit over by rotating the extended Folding
Handle to the right (clockwise).
10.After about 2 minutes, turn the grids back over by rotating the Folding Handle to the left
(counterclockwise). Using a protective oven mitt, gently lift the Lid by the extended Folding
Handle to check for brownness. If the Lid is difficult to lift, the waffle may not be done. Close
the Lid and watch for the steaming to stop before checking again.
11. After the first waffle, move the Adjustable Browning Control up or down to achieve the desired
browning of the waffle. browning may differ depending on the batter ingredients. Batters using
sugar tend to brown quicker.
12.The total cooking time should take approximately 3 to 5 minutes. The exact cooking time will
be a matter of your taste and will depend on the type of batter and ingredients used. Avoid
opening your Waffle Maker before cooking is completed, as this may cause the waffle to stick
or bake poorly.
13.When the waffles are cooked, remove them by using a plastic or wooden spatula. Using plastic
or wooden utensils is recommended to keep your non-stick surface looking new. Do not use
sharp utensils, (i.e. knives, forks, etc.) This could damage the non-stick surface.
14.After removing the cooked waffle, keep the Waffle Maker closed to preserve the heat until
ready for the next batch of waffles.
15.After use, turn the Adjustable Browning Control to the lowest position (counterclockwise) and
then immediately unplug from the electrical outlet.
16.If the waffles are not to be consumed immediately, place the waffles on a paper napkin or
cooling rack to absorb condensation. To keep hot, place the waffles in an ovenproof dish on an
oven rack, and heat at about 95°-120°. Waffles will keep for about 20 minutes before they begin
to dry out.
Note: The lower Adjustable Browning Control Setting, can be used to reheat previously baked
waffles.
CLEANING
FIRST REMOVE THE PLUG FROM THE ELECTRICAL SOCKET.
Clean the appliance after each use. First allow it to cool off completely.
Wipe the outer surfaces with a damp cloth. Do not use sharp metal
objects or aggressive cleaning agents on the non-stick surface.
