INSTRUCTIONS
FOR HOUSEHOLD
USE ONLY
SPECIAL CORD SET
INSTRUCTIONS
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce
the risks resulting from becoming entangled in or
tripping over a longer cord.
Longer extension cords are available and may
be used if care is exercised in their use.
If a long extension cord is used, the marked
electrical rating of the extension cord should
be at least as great as the electrical rating
of the appliance, and the longer cord should
be arranged so that it will not drape over the
countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on
by children or animals, or tripped over.
NOTICE
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade
is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of
electric shock, this plug will fit in a polarized out-
let only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in
the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit,
contact a qualified electrician. Do not modify the
plug in any way.

Remove all packaging and any promotional labels

) of your
new waffle maker have been included before
discarding any packaging materials. You may
want to keep the box and packing materials for
use at a later date.
Before using your Cuisinart
®
4-Slice Belgian
Waffle Maker for the first time, wipe housing and
baking plates with a damp cloth to remove any
dust from the warehouse or shipping.
Note:
The Cuisinart
®
4-Slice Belgian Waffle Maker
has been treated with a special nonstick coating.
Before the first use, we suggest you season the
grids with cooking spray or flavorless vegetable
oil. If using oil, apply it with a paper towel or
pastry brush. You may find it helpful to repeat this
process before each use of the waffle maker.
