Hints For Tasty Waffles
• Select a darker shade when cooking
heavier and more dense batters.
• Do not over-mix waffle batter. Beating
egg whites separately and folding them
gently into the batter will create a
lighter, crispier waffle.
• Setting No.1 will produce the fluffiest
and lightest colour waffles. Setting 5
will produce the crispier darker colour
waffles. Experiment to determine which
setting produces the best waffle colour
for you. We recommend setting No. 3 for
golden brown waffles.
• Don't open the Waffle Maker while steam
is escaping from sides and front of the
unit.
• We recommend using the provided
measuring cup. Depending on the
thickness of the batter, you may be
using between ¾ and 1 cup of batter per
waffle.
• Do not overfill the waffle maker – it
should not be filled to the top of the
funnel. Always fill the measuring scoop
full to the top. Do not add more batter to
the waffle maker.
• Thicker batters should be added a bit
more carefully, being sure that the batter
in the funnel drips into the grid plate
before adding more.
• Batters should be whisked well to be
sure there are no lumps. If the batter is
not flowing easily through the funnel, it
is too thick. Either whisk to a smoother
batter, or add additional liquid, 1
tablespoon at a time.
• Why not freeze prepared waffles for
those busy days ahead? Just bake the
waffles as directed. Cool on a wire rack
and wrap in moisture-proof paper or
plastic. Quickly reheat in our oven or
microwave.
Always unplug your Shade Select Vertical
Waffle Maker and allow it to cool completely
before cleaning it. NEVER immerse the
MAIN body, power cord or plug in water or
any other liquid. To prevent damage to the
appliance do not use alkaline cleaning agents
when cleaning, use a soft cloth and a mild
detergent.
• Carefully wipe off oil after each batch
of waffles, prior to making the next
batch. This will improve the cooking
quality and prevent excess oil. The
waffle batter should be poured with the
included measuring cup for the perfect
fill.
• Always use a plastic utensil to lift the
waffles from the waffle maker.
• Do not use metal utensils as these will
scratch the non-stick surface.
To clean after use
Always turn the power OFF and remove the
plug before cleaning.
Do not immerse the Waffle Maker in water
or any other liquid.
Do not use abrasives or metal scourers as
they will scratch the non-stick grid plates
and the exterior surface.
To clean the non-stick grid plates
Wipe over the plates with a dampened
cloth.
To clean the exterior
Wipe over with a dampened cloth and
polish with a soft dry cloth.
To clean cooked-on stains
Should your waffle maker require additional
cleaning of stubborn build up and
stains, the following cleaning method is
recommended:
1. Combine 2 tablespoons of bicarbonate
or baking soda with water to make a
paste.
2. Turn the power OFF and remove the
plug. Ensure the cooking plates are
cool.
3. Using a damp cloth, wipe the mixture
on the cooking plates to remove all
residue.
4. Before using the waffle maker again,
re-season the non-stick surface by
applying a little oil, and wiping clean
with paper towel.
This appliance has no user serviceable
