CARE & CLEANING
Here are a few easy steps to keep your waffle maker
looking and working like new:
1 Always unplug the waffle maker and allow it to cool before
cleaning. There is no need to disassemble the waffle maker
for cleaning. Never immerse the waffle maker in water or
place in dishwasher.
2 Brush away any loose crumbs from the grooves. Wipe grids
clean with a paper towel, absorbing any oil or butter that
might be down in the grooves of the grid. You can also wipe
grids with a damp cloth. Do not use anything abrasive that
can scratch or damage the non-stick coating.
3 Wipe the outside of the waffle maker with a damp cloth only.
Do not clean the outside with any abrasive scouring pad or
steel wool, as this will damage the finish. Do not immerse in
water or any other liquid. Do not place in the dishwasher.
4 Should any batter become baked onto the grids, pour a little
cooking oil onto the hardened batter. Let sit 5 minutes to
soften batter, then wipe off with a paper towel or soft cloth.
For proper care of your DuraCeramic™ coated waffle
maker, follow the following steps if suborn stains appear:
1 Sprinkle some baking soda on the stained area.
2 Add enough water to moisten the baking soda, making a
paste like texture.
3 Let sit for a few minutes (for tougher stains let sit up to an hour).
4 Lightly scrub with a plastic scouring pad or damp cloth and
dry thoroughly.
5 Repeat if necessary.
Should any stubborn stains appear, they will not affect the
performance and non-stick quality of the DuraCeramic™ coating.

Waffle Tip: Cornstarch makes the waffles crisper. If you don’t
have cornstarch, you could still make great waffles by omitting
cornstarch and increasing flour to 2 cups. Bake as directed.

Sprinkle chopped pecans onto bottom grid of hot, greased
waffle maker. Pour batter over pecans. Sprinkle dried cranberries
over batter. Close waffle maker and bake as directed.
