warm-up
Plug the power cord into a grounded 120 volt outlet. Set the rocker switch to “Crisp
Exterior/ Moist Interior” to begin the heat-up cycle. This setting places maximum heat on the
waffle grids and they will warm up in only 3½ minutes. If the switch is set to Uniform Texture,
warm up time will be about twice that long. The red “Baking” light will come on when the
WafflePro
®
is plugged in. Set the color control wheel in the range of 4. When the heat-up period is
complete the red light will go off, the green “Ready” light will come on and the beeper will briefly
sound to remind you the grid is up to temperature and ready for you to begin baking. When
the green light comes on, the heaters are deactivated until the grids cool slightly below the
baking temperature.
Keep hands away from the hot stainless cover and grid surfaces. Touch only the plastic parts
and handle provided.
SeleCt the taSte/texture – whiCh iS JuSt right for You
The versatile Quad
®
Baking System unique to the WafflePro
®
Express
®
lets you control the
baking condition best suited to your taste and allows you to vary and modify the taste, texture
and aroma of the waffles any time you wish. By adjusting the batter you can further widen the
flavors and textures available. You can develop the perfect combination of settings for each
recipe and for any of your favorite toppings.
Caution
- Do not rely on the age-old notion that
the waffle is done when the waffle maker stops steaming.
Because of the unique Quad
®
Baking System the waffle may be ready to serve while the WafflePro
®
is still steaming. Learn to
rely on the green light and beeper and vary the settings to your taste.
maKing waffleS with CriSp exterior/ moiSt interior
Waffles made with the Crisp Exterior/Moist Interior setting will retain more of the freshly–baked
aroma and flavor. The degree of exterior crispness will depend on the recipe and the color
control setting.
1. Depress the upper portion of the black circular rocker switch marked “Crisp Exterior/Moist
Interior.” Set the color control at 4 for the first waffle.
2. Pour or ladle about ½ level cup of batter from a ladle or pitcher in the middle of the lower waffle
grid. A thicker batter, that pours slowly works best. Avoid putting too much batter on grid as that
will cause an overflow and increase clean up time.
3. Close the lid and latch immediately after adding batter so as to spread out the batter uniformly.
Press down lightly on the lid handle for several seconds in order to help level the batter. The
unique suspension system allows the lid to float and adjusts automatically to insure a uniform
thickness of the waffle.
4. The red light will come on indicating the waffle is baking. This means the heater is powered to
continue the cooking process.
5. When the waffle is ready, the green light comes on, the red light goes off, and the beeper
sounds briefly.
