ISSUE
SOLUTION
How do I know when the No-Drip
Waffle Maker is heated and ready
to use?
When the No-Drip Waffle Maker reaches the optimal tem-
perature, the Green Indicator Light will illuminate and this
means that you’re ready to get cooking.
There is no On/Off button. How do
I turn the No-Drip Waffle Maker off
and on?
To turn on the appliance, simply plug in the power cord.
When you’re done cooking, turn off the appliance by un-
plugging the No-Drip Waffle Maker.
When using my No-Drip Waffle
Maker, the Cover gets very hot. Is
this normal?
Yes, this is completely normal. When using your No-Drip
Waffle Maker, always lift and lower the Cover by the Cover
Handle. To prevent personal injury, DO NOT lift the Cover
so that your arm is over the Cooking Surface as it is hot and
may cause injury. Lift from the side.
ISSUE
SOLUTION
After using my No-Drip Waffle
Maker a few times, food is starting
to stick to the surface. What is
happening?
There is probably an accumulation of burnt food residue
on the Cooking Surfaces. This is normal, especially when
cooking with sugar. Allow the appliance to cool fully, pour
on a little cooking oil and let sit for 5–10 minutes. Scrub the
Cooking Surface with a sponge or soft bristled brush to
dislodge food. Use a damp, soapy cloth to wipe down the
Cooking Surface. Rinse the cloth and wipe again. If food re-
mains, pour on more cooking oil and let sit for a few hours,
then scrub and wipe clean.
There is batter overflowing from
the edges of my No-Drip Waffle
Maker, what is happening?
Using more batter than is recommended may result
in overflow. The No-Drip Waffle Maker is designed to
accommodate a certain amount of overflow into the edges
surrounding the Cooking Surface. Use no more than 1
½ cups of batter per batch of 4 waffles in order to avoid
overflow coming from the appliance.
The Indicator Light will not turn on
and the Cooking Surface is failing
to heat.
Ensure that the power cord is plugged into the power
outlet. Check to make sure the power outlet is operating
correctly. Determine if a power failure has occurred in your
home, apartment or building.
